"Gavin Newsom has only one job, to protect the state of California, and to some extent he has not done that, he has focused on politics. Governor Newsom wants to run for president 2028 and is using this as a political football to launch himself [...] President Trump did what he had to do, protect the ICE department and protect federal buildings," Maldonado commented.
