California Governor Gavin Newsom has been critical of President Donald Trump's move to take control of and deploy the National Guard.

California Gov. Gavin Newsom has formally requested that the Trump administration remove the National Guard from L.A.. The soldiers’ insertion into the city was a retaliatory measure made by the President late Saturday night in response to ongoing protests against city-wide raids by U.

Legal experts questioned Trump’s response to unrest in L.A., saying he appears to be laying groundwork for more expansive use of the military to suppress dissent.
