California leaders have slammed Trump for what they view as intentionally whipping up the conflict with unnecessary action, triggering more civil discontent by commandeering the National Guard from state control and sending out 2,000 soldiers into the city.
California Governor Gavin Newsom swore to take legal action against the administration over the move which he called 'an unlawful act, an immoral act, an unconstitutional act' in an interview with MSNBC.
'He's worsened the conditions. He's lit the proverbial match,' Newsom said.
'These anarchists that are in there to produce genuine problems, and they're simply playing right into Donald Trump's hand. And they need to be called out. They need to be apprehended.
'It is wrong to destroy other individuals's residential or commercial property, and it is incorrect to produce the conditions that only intensify this. But Donald Trump, at the end of the day, is the sponsor of these conditions.'
LA Council member Eunisses Hernandez was shot informing a crowd of anti-ICE protestors that the federal migration firm knows 'how rapidly we mobilize, that's why they're changing strategies.
'Because community defense works and our resistance has slowed them down before ... and if they're intensifying their techniques then so are we. When they appear, we got ta appear even more powerful.'
Hernandez doubled down on her assistance of the anti-ICE protests in a TV interview with NBCLA.
When asked by anchor Colleen Williams, 'Would you admonish [protestors] to stay within the boundaries of the law out there?'
Hernandez responded, 'What I would say is that individuals who are out there objecting, be safe. Remember that we require all community members to be able to "toss down" in future emergency situations.'
