Newsom to Sue Trump Over National Guard Federalization

California Governor Gavin Newsom announced plans to sue former President Donald Trump, challenging the latter's federalization of the National Guard. The announcement came during an interview, where Newsom also condemned the violence at recent Los Angeles protests, calling for peaceful demonstrations. "This is a significant issue of state sovereignty," Newsom stated, indicating the legal battle will likely reach the Supreme Court. The Governor also addressed the ongoing protests, stating, "The images coming from downtown LA are unacceptable. Protesting needs to be peaceful; it cannot be violent." This legal challenge marks a significant escalation in the ongoing political conflict between California and the federal government.
