- Stephen Miller accuses Governor Gavin Newsom and Mayor Karen Bass of promoting violent insurrection by calling for military forces to leave Los Angeles.
- Bass’s demand to halt ICE raids is seen by Miller as an attempt to unilaterally control national immigration policy.
- President Trump has deployed several battalions to the city and considers invoking the Insurrection Act to authorize military law enforcement powers.
- Newsom strongly opposes the military presence and has sought legal measures to limit its scope.
The Mayor of LA is effectively saying the mob violence is caused by the mere presence of ICE in the city, and the violence against ICE will not stop unless federal law enforcement is withdrawn from the city. This is the definition of insurrection.— Stephen Miller, White House Deputy Chief of Staff, commenting on the actions of California Governor Gavin Newsom and Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass.
