Trump-Newsom Feud: National Guard Deployment in LA Sparks Controversy

Los Angeles witnessed a significant deployment of National Guard and Marine troops over the weekend, raising questions about the necessity and handling of the situation. President Trump's administration initiated the deployment, citing unrest and violence. However, Governor Gavin Newsom publicly refuted any prior communication with the President regarding this decision. News reports showed significant military presence in the city. Trump's statement to John Roberts of Fox News claimed a phone conversation with Newsom to address the situation, while Newsom's tweet denied any such call, stating, "There was no call. Not even a voicemail." This discrepancy highlights the communication breakdown between the federal and state governments during a time of apparent crisis. The situation underscores the importance of clear communication during periods of civil unrest and the need for transparency in government actions. The video's release on June 11th, shortly after the events, adds to its timeliness and relevance.
