California Gov. Gavin Newsom plans to file a lawsuit against the Trump administration early Monday morning over the president’s deployment of 300 National Guard troops to Los Angeles, even as the LAPD chief admitted Sunday his cops “are overwhelmed” by the violent anti-ICE riots taking over the city.

California Governor Gavin Newsom and Attorney General Rob Bonta outlined their lawsuit against Donald Trump and his order to federalize the National Guard, now in Los Angeles to respond to protests of the administration’s ICE raids.

California sued the Trump administration on Monday, June 9, over its federalization of the state’s National Guard, alleging the move to deploy some 2,000 troops across the state without the approval of the governor or local law enforcement is unlawful.

Authorities swept in with flash-bangs and tear gas grenades to disperse hundreds of protesters in Los Angeles.
