President Donald Trump and his border czar said the contentious immigration raids taking over California will persist, and state officials who interfere, including Gov. Gavin Newsom (D) and Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass (D), could be arrested.
“Officials who stand in the way of law and order, yea, they will face judges,” Trump told reporters on Sunday, according to NBC News.
On Sunday, Trump also said Secretary of Homeland Security Kristi Noem, Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth, Attorney General Pam Bondi and Los Angeles agencies will “take such action necessary to liberate Los Angeles from the Migrant Invasion, and put an end to these Migrant riots.”
Trump’s remarks came after similar comments from Tom Homan, Trump’s border czar, during an interview with NBC News’ Jacob Soboroff on Saturday evening.
“I’m telling you what, we’re going to keep enforcing law every day in LA,” Homan said. “Every day in LA, we’re going to enforce immigration law. I don’t care if they like it or not.”
