Former Speaker Nancy Pelosi is criticizing Donald Trump for deploying the National Guard to Los Angeles without Governor Gavin Newsom's consent, calling it a violation of Article 10 of the Constitution. Pelosi compared this to Trumpâs refusal to deploy the Guard during the January 6 Capitol riot, despite bipartisan pleas. âAnd yet, in a contra-constitutional way, he has sent the National Guard into California,â she said. With legal and political tensions rising, Pelosi warns: "Something is very wrong with this picture."

In a stunning escalation, President Trump has ordered 2,000 National Guard troops and 700 active-duty Marines into Los Angelesâoverriding Governor Newsomâs authority and prompting California to file suit against what AG Rob Bonta calls a âderangedâ and unconstitutional power grab. As protests over immigration raids enter their fourth day, the state accuses the White House of manufacturing chaos for political gain, while Trump doubles down, warning that demonstrators will be âhit harder than ever.â This showdown pits federal might against a Democratic governor and raises urgent questions about who truly controls Americaâs military forces on home soil.
