California Governor Gavin Newsom and Attorney General Rob Bonta outlined their lawsuit against Donald Trump and his order to federalize the National Guard, now in Los Angeles to respond to protests of the administration’s ICE raids.

California Gov. Gavin Newson posted on social media that " Commandeering a state's National Guard without consulting the Governor of that state is illegal and immoral."

California Gov. Gavin Newsom plans to file a lawsuit against the Trump administration early Monday morning over the president’s deployment of 300 National Guard troops to Los Angeles, even as the LAPD chief admitted Sunday his cops “are overwhelmed” by the violent anti-ICE riots taking over the city.

California sued the Trump administration on Monday, June 9, over its federalization of the state’s National Guard, alleging the move to deploy some 2,000 troops across the state without the approval of the governor or local law enforcement is unlawful.

Authorities swept in with flash-bangs and tear gas grenades to disperse hundreds of protesters in Los Angeles.

Anti-ICE protests continue in Los Angeles as the Trump administration mobilizes hundreds of Marines and National Guard members. NBC News Correspondents David Noriega, Vaughn Hillyard and Courtney Kube report on the Trump administration’s handling of the protests.

The temporary restraining order request alleges the deployment “escalates tensions and promotes (rather than quells) civil unrest.”

President Donald Trump has sent the Marines to Los Angeles in an effort to quash anti-ICE protests that have ravaged parts of the city on Tuesday. Images from L.A. show masked protesters blocking roads,
