The California Governor has sued the U.S. President over the mobilization of the National Guard, calling it “an unmistakable step toward authoritarianism.”

Protests surrounding immigration enforcement actions in the Los Angeles area and the Trump administration's response to them have cued up a public spat between President Donald Trump and Gov.

White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt said President Trump called in the National Guard with the expectation that it would 'hopefully prevent and deter some of this violence.'
