Last Updated: June 14, 2025, 5:09 AM EDT

Tensions are escalating between President Donald Trump and California Gov. Gavin Newsom as protests against Immigration and Customs Enforcement continue to grip Los Angeles and spread to New York City, San Francisco, Boston, Austin, Texas, and other cities.

Trump deployed about 4,000 National Guardsmen and 700 Marines to LA against Newsom's wishes.

A federal appeals court Thursday delayed an order requiring the Trump administration to return control of the National Guard to Newsom, dealing the administration a temporary reprieve to what would have been a major reversal of its policy on the protests.

Glendale will no longer hold ICE detainees at police department facility

The city manager of Glendale, California, is terminating a contract with the Department of Homeland Security that required the Glendale Police Department to house some immigration detainees at its facility, according to a statement on the city website.

Several law enforcement agencies across the country have similar contracts with DHS, which are limited in scope and do not require local law enforcement to help bring undocumented immigrants into custody.

The press release does not mention the Los Angeles protests but acknowledges that the contract "has become divisive" and that the decision to terminate it "was not made lightly."

"Nevertheless, despite the transparency and safeguards the City has upheld, the City recognizes that public perception of the ICE contract -- no matter how limited or carefully managed, no matter the good -- has become divisive," the statement said. "And while opinions on this issue may vary -- the decision to terminate this contract is not politically driven. It is rooted in what this City stands for -- public safety, local accountability, and trust."

Congresswoman blames Trump for civil unrest in her district

ICE's presence "does not make our neighborhoods safer. Instead, they are tearing families apart, traumatizing children and undermining trust with our local officials and law enforcement," Sanchez said in a statement. "The Trump administration’s raids serve no purpose other than to stoke fear and enforce a cruel and broken immigration system."

Sanchez added that she’s working to learn whether any of the ICE detentions were unlawful.

Homan pushes back on reports he's arresting Newsom

Trump administration border czar Tom Homan refuted claims that he was going to arrest Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass and California Gov. Gavin Newsom, telling Fox News that an interview from this weekend was taken out of context.

"The reporter asked about, 'Could Governor, Governor Newsom, or Mayor Bass, be arrested?' I said, 'Well, no one's above the law, if they cross the line and commit a crime. Absolutely they can,'" Homan explained. "So there was no discussion about arresting Newsom."

Homan asserted that he was speaking broadly that if anyone "crosses the line," they will be prosecuted.

"You can protest. You got your First Amendment rights. But when you cross that line, you put hands on an ICE officer, or you destroy property, or ICE says that you're impeding law enforcement … that's a crime, and that the Trump administration is not going to tolerate," he said.

President Donald Trump offered similar comments on Sunday, saying if California officials "stand in the way of law and order, yeah, they will face charges."

The clashes between protesters and law enforcement "is exactly what Donald Trump wanted," Newsom wrote on social media Monday morning.

"He flamed the fires and illegally acted to federalize the National Guard," Newsom said. "The order he signed doesn’t just apply to CA. It will allow him to go into ANY STATE and do the same thing. We’re suing him."
