According to reports, Homan said that people can protest and exercise the rights granted by the First Amendment, but if crossing this line, such as beating U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement officials, destroying property, obstructing law enforcement, or deliberately harboring or concealing property in any way, it is a crime, and the Trump administration "will never tolerate such behavior."
The report said that Homan believed that Newsom and Los Angeles Mayor Bass "did not cross the line" and "did not overtake the law."
According to previous reports, at noon on the 8th local time, Trump administration's border affairs director Homan said that he would continue to crack down on illegal immigration in Southern California, and "any obstructor" would be arrested, including Newsom and Los Angeles Mayor Bass.
On the afternoon of the 8th, Newsom responded in an interview, "Come here to catch me, am I still afraid of this? This cannot stop me from speaking for California."
In response, Trump told the media on the 9th, "If I were Homan, I would catch him, I think this is great." Newsom responded on social media that day that Trump threatened to arrest him, and this behavior is a "bottom line that the United States cannot cross". (China News Network)
