California Gov. Gavin Newsom added fuel to the fire after daring President Trump’s border czar Tom Homan to arrest him for failing to crackdown on violent anti-ICE agitators in his state.

Both Trump and his "border czar," Tom Homan, have said California officials could face arrest if they're perceived as impeding ICE operations.

By calling in the National Guard to quell protests in Los Angeles, Trump is 'inciting and provoking violence,' Newsom says.

Newsom filed suit against the White House on Monday over its decision to deploy the National Guard. California Attorney General Rob Bonta says the state’s sovereignty was “trampled” by President Donald Trump when he ordered National Guard troops to the immigration protests in Los Angeles, The Associated Press reported.

California Gov. Gavin Newsom instructed President Donald Trump’s border czar to arrest him after protests over immigration raids in Los Angeles continued for the third consecutive day. “The hell is this guy?” Newsom told NBC News’ Jacob Soboroff. “Come after me, arrest me. Let’s just get it over with, tough guy. You know, I don’t give a damn.”

ICE agents will be out "every day" regardless of pushback amid widespread protests across Los Angeles County, Tom Homan told NBC News on Saturday.

U.S. President Donald Trump on Monday said he would support the arrest of California Governor Gavin Newsom over possible obstruction of his administration's immigration enforcement measures amid protests in the state.

Border czar Tom Homan on Sunday warned California officials could face arrest and prosecution if they “cross the line” following President Trump’s deployment of National Guard
