L.A. immigration protests intensify and Israel intercepts Gaza aid ship: Morning Rundown

California Gov. Gavin Newsom threatens to sue the Trump administration.

California Gov. Gavin Newsom threatens to sue the Trump administration. Israel intercepts a Gaza-bound aid ship with Greta Thunberg aboard. And residents of a San Diego neighborhood say they live in fear after a fiery jet crash.

Here’s what to know today.

California Gov. Gavin Newsom said he plans to sue the Trump administration over its deployment of the National Guard in Los Angeles as protests in the city intensified over the weekend. President Donald Trump’s order required the Defense Department to coordinate with Newsom before he sent in the National Guard, Newsom said, adding that the administration failed to do so.

“There’s a protocol; there’s a process,” Newsom told correspondent Jacob Soboroff yesterday in an interview on MSNBC. “He didn’t care about that. And the worst part? He completely lied.” Newsom noted that Trump had said on social media that everything was safe because after he had sent the guard — except the guard had not been deployed at the time.
