President Donald Trump has built his presidency around stretching the bounds of presidential authority, and his response to protests over an immigration crackdown in Los Angeles is no exception.

Tuberville recently joined President Donald Trump in calling for Newsom’s arrest after he claimed the federal government was overstepping its bounds when Trump activated the National Guard -- without the governor’s permission to maintain order in Los Angeles.

President Donald Trump hit back at Gov. Gavin Newsom's claims that the president did not call him recently, showing a screenshot of the call to Fox News.

US Education Secretary Linda McMahon said Tuesday the Trump administration was considering withholding education funding to California schools, alleging the state’s policies on transgender athletes violates federal law.

President Trump has authorized the deployment of 4,000 California National Guard troops and about 700 Marines to LA, despite Gov. Gavin Newsom's objections.

President Donald Trump did not invoke the Insurrection Act in a June 7 memo that deployed the California National Guard to Los Angeles. He cited a federal law that says if the U.S. faces a rebellion, the president may call into federal service the state National Guard.

White House officials say that Trump has a mandate to carry out his hard-line immigration agenda and that politically, battling it out with a blue state is a winning issue for them.

Trump's move to send the California National Guard to Los Angeles has sharply escalated tensions between the government and the Golden State.

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 Trump and Gov. Newsom.

California Attorney General Rob Bonta said Monday that he’ll soon file a lawsuit against the Trump administration for federalizing National Guard troops this weekend.
