California Governor Gavin Newsom and Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass could both face federal charges over their response to ICE raids in the city, President Trump’s border czar Tom Homan has warned.
As violence tore apart sections of downtown LA, Compton and the suburb of Paramount, the administration has accused the Golden State Dems of fueling tensions, which exploded in riots on Saturday.
“Someone is going to lose their life,” Homan warned, speaking to NBC News.

He said that he has not ruled out asking the Department of Justice to prosecute the elected officials for allegedly having a role in fomenting the anti-ICE riots.
He added that “there was no one outside of schools,” in rebuttal to allegations over what triggered yesterday’s unrest.
