A battle between federal and state rights is bubbling to the surface with Trump’s latest move to escalate immigration raids in California. After ICE agents rounded up more that 40 people in the LA area Friday, protesters took to the streets. The response from Trump? Call out more than 2k members of the California National Guard over the objections over both LA Mayor Karen Bass and California Governor Gavin Newsom. In doing so, Trump federalized California’s National Guard using Title 10 rules which allow a president to “repel invasion, suppress rebellion or execute laws.”
Is it dangerous that the California National Guard now reports to Trump instead of Newsom? We’ll talk about it with iHeart TV and radio political analyst Gary Dietrich.
