Border Czar Slams California Governor Amidst LA Immigration Tensions

Los Angeles, June 7, 2025 – Tensions escalated in Los Angeles today as White House border czar Tom Homan launched a scathing attack on California Governor Gavin Newsom's handling of immigration. In a brief interview captured on video, Homan stated, "The governor is essentially saying the opposite, that the rhetoric and the escalation is coming from you." He continued, expressing his lack of respect for the governor, and blaming Newsom's policies for the presence of "criminal aliens" on the streets. Homan's strong words underscore the deep political divide surrounding immigration policy in California and the nation. His blunt assessment, "I don't care what the governor thinks of me. I'm not running a popularity contest," highlights the intensity of the conflict. The situation underscores the ongoing debate about immigration enforcement and the role of state versus federal authority.
