Gavin Newsom criticized President Trump for misusing hundreds of millions of dollars in a punitive immigration crackdown. Newsom claimed the administration aimed to instill fear among families, rather than target violent criminals. He stated that the poor utilization rate of National Guard troops highlighted the deployment's absurdity. During a news conference, he expressed his commitment to actively fight against these policies rather than be passive, linking the crackdown to harm against family-owned businesses and immigrant communities.
Newsom criticized the administration's immigration crackdown, saying its only goal was to terrorize families and communities, not to pursue violent criminals, which he would support.
The governor called the president's decision to deploy about 4,000 National Guardsmen part of Trump's 'rule of cruelty' and said the removal of half the troops recognized the absurdity of its deployment.
