We're going to bring National Guard in tonight. We're going to continue doing our job. We're going to push back on these people and we're going to enforce the law.

Trump took to Truth Social to call out California Governor Gavin Newsom and Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass.
"If Governor Gavin Newscum, of California, and Mayor Karen Bass, of Los Angeles, can’t do their jobs, which everyone knows they can’t, then the Federal Government will step in and solve the problem," the president fumed. "[Riots and looters], the way it should be solved."
Donald Trump called out Gavin Newsom.
Trump spoke at the White House on Monday, June 9, about Newsom and the attorney general suing him for federalizing the state's National Guard.
"You watch same clips I did: cars burning, people rioting, we stopped it," he said. "If we didn't do the job, that place would be burning down just like the houses. I feel we had no choice ... We did the right thing."
Karen Bass called on to people to protest peacefully.
In response, Bass then called on people to protest peacefully so they "don’t fall into the Trump Administration’s trap."
"Protest peacefully. Looting and vandalism will not be tolerated," Bass wrote. "Let me be absolutely clear – as a united city, we are demanding the end to these lawless attacks on our communities. Los Angeles will always stand with EVERYONE who calls our city home."
