Newsom says Trump never discussed sending National Guard: ‘Stone cold liar’

  • California Governor Gavin Newsom condemned President Donald Trump after a court prevented the deployment of Guard units to Los Angeles on Thursday.
  • Newsom had requested a court earlier this week to stop military assistance to federal immigration agents amid protests over raids in the region, leading to the judge's 36-page ruling.
  • The ruling returned control of the National Guard to Newsom starting Friday at noon, with plans to focus on border security, drug and fentanyl enforcement, and wildfire preparation.
  • Newsom accused Trump of being a "stone cold liar" for inaccurately stating that their recent conversation covered the deployment of the Guard, adding that the day's events served as a crucial moment to uphold democratic principles.
  • The decision and Newsom's statements underscore ongoing conflict over federal military involvement in California and suggest limits to presidential authority in state matters.
