California’s Democrat Governor Gavin Newsom held a press conference on Thursday evening following the Clinton judge’s decision to temporarily restrain President Trump from deputizing the California National Guard.
US District Judge Charles Breyer, (brother of retired SCOTUS Breyer), a Clinton appointee, granted Newsom a Temporary Restraining Order (TRO) and said Trump’s decision to federalize the National Guard was illegal.
Newsom gloated about the judge’s restraining order during a presser on Thursday evening.
Following his remarks, Newsom took a few questions from reporters.
A reporter asked Newsom about his conversation with President Trump.
After initially lying and claiming that Trump never called him (Trump later dropped the receipts and showed his call log with Newsom) – Newsom admitted there was a phone call.
Trump told reporters this week that he called Newsom and told him to ‘get his ass in gear’ and stop the Los Angeles riots.
“I would love to share the readout, but I revere the office of the presidency, so I’ll keep it in confidence he has quite literally made up components of that conversation. He’s been a stone-cold liar about what he said we talked about,” Newsom said, finger wagging.
He continued, “He never discussed the National Guard. Period. Full stop. I would love to share with you what we actually talked about. It would send shivers up your f– spine.”

During his 20-minute presser on Thursday evening, Newsom went off on Trump and said he’s like the kings and dictators our Founding Fathers warned about.
This is rich coming from Gavin Newsom.
Governor Newsom imposed some of the most abusive and authoritarian Covid restrictions via executive orders during the pandemic.
Newsom is a tyrant who completely bypassed the state legislature and unilaterally locked down California with 57 executive orders!
Meanwhile, Newsom was dining at the French Laundry after threatening the peasants with harsh penalties if they didn’t stay home.

Newsom was so out of control that a judge finally issued a permanent injunction restraining him from further issuing unconstitutional Covid orders.
