California Governor Gavin Newsom has formally requested Trump administration officials to rescind the order to deploy the National Guard and return control of the force to California, calling the initial order unlawful and “intentionally designed to inflame the situation.”

“I have formally requested the Trump Administration rescind their unlawful deployment of troops in Los Angeles county and return them to my command,” Newsom wrote on X, formerly Twitter. “We didn’t have a problem until Trump got involved. This is a serious breach of state sovereignty — inflaming tensions while pulling resources from where they’re actually needed. Rescind the order. Return control to California.”

    This conversation was about me saying no that is not conflation, and agreeing with the intent of the person you replied to. It’s not any bigger than that.

    The intent of the person you replied to being, WTF is “we didn’t have a problem”?? Yes, everyone please clap for Newsom, he called ICE cruel! He sure told Trump off! I’ll criticise Newsom all day long and you can call me stupid and complain about where I’m putting my goalposts.
