Governor Gavin Newsom's Address on Trump's Military Deployment in Los Angeles

Published | Video Starts at 00:34

Tonight, Governor Gavin Newsom is delivering a major address. Let's go now to the governor's speech. Kids afraid of attending their own graduation. Trump is pulling a military dragnet all across Los Angeles, well beyond his stated intent to just go after violent and serious criminals. His agents are arresting dishwashers, gardeners, day laborers, and seamstresses. That's just weakness, Weakness masquerading as strength. Donald Trump's government isn't protecting our communities. They're traumatizing our communities. (00:34–00:45)
