Governor Gavin Newsom has addressed the public concerning the federal government’s decision to take control of the California National Guard and deploy 2,000 soldiers in Los Angeles. According to Governor Newsom, this action is not due to a lack of law enforcement but rather an attempt to create a spectacle.
In his statement, Governor Newsom urged citizens not to react with violence. “Don’t give them one,” he said, emphasizing the importance of peaceful protest. He further stated, “Never use violence. Speak out peacefully.”
The governor’s comments come amid heightened tensions surrounding federal immigration actions.
