Arkansas Republican Gov. Sarah Huckabee Sanders ripped into California Democratic Gov. Gavin Newsom on Tuesday over his response to President Donald Trump sending in the National Guard to quell the ongoing immigration riots in Los Angeles.
Trump deployed the National Guard over the weekend without Newsom’s approval after violent clashes broke out between law enforcement and protesters in response to coordinated Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) raids across L.A.
Newsom claims Trump’s actions inflamed tensions and overstepped his authority. In a lawsuit against the Trump administration, the state of California called the move an “unprecedented power grab.”
During an appearance on “America’s Newsroom” on Tuesday, Sanders criticized Newsom’s leadership and his defiance of Trump.
“We would never choose rioters and criminal illegals over American law enforcement [in Arkansas],” Sanders said.
