NEW YORK, June 10 (Xinhua) -- The standoff between the White House and California Governor Gavin Newsom seemed to escalate on Tuesday, even as protests in downtown Los Angeles appeared to quiet overnight.
Newsom responded to the Trump administration's order to deploy 700 active-duty Marines and 2,000 additional National Guard troops by pledging to file a second lawsuit and "surging" 800 additional state and local law enforcement officers to the region.
