ICE Protests in L.A. Trump Says He'd Arrest Newsom
President Trump took his Border Czar's comments about arresting California officials -- including the state governor and the mayor of L.A. -- to the next level Monday, declaring he would have Gavin Newsom arrested immediately.
On Saturday night, the second night of street protests -- some quite violent -- against ICE arrests of undocumented immigrants in Los Angeles County, Trump's Border Czar Tom Homan appeared to threaten to put California Gov. Gavin Newsom and L.A. Mayor Karen Bass in handcuffs if they got in the way of the federal raids.
“I’ll say it about anybody,” Homan said, responding specifically to whether his threat of detaining any obstructionist included state officials like Newsom and Bass. “You cross that line, it’s a felony to knowingly harbor and conceal an illegal alien. It’s a felony to impede law enforcement doing their job.”
