Gov. Gavin Newsom’s office, in a letter to the Trump administration, called the deployment of troops “unlawful” and a “serious breach of state sovereignty.”
Stepping up his confrontation with the White House, Gov. Gavin Newsom demanded on Sunday that President Trump pull California National Guard troops off the streets and away from the demonstrations unfolding in Los Angeles.
Mr. Newsom asserted on X that the deployment order was “unlawful” and called on the Trump administration to return the command of the guard to his office.
It is extremely rare for a president to call up a state’s National Guard troops without the permission of that state’s governor for the purpose of quelling unrest or enforcing the law. In California, the adjutant general of the state National Guard is appointed by the governor.
“Rescind the order,” Mr. Newsom wrote Sunday on X. “Return control to California.”
