SACRAMENTO – (INT) – Governor Newsom is calling out President Trump for ‘manufacturing’ a national emergency at the Mexican border.

In a statement issued Friday, Newsom said Trump is trying “to seize power and subvert the constitution.”

“This 'emergency' is a national disgrace, and the blame lays solely at the feet of the President,” he said.

Newsom warned that Trump “plans to shutdown and divert funds used by California law enforcement that run counter-narcotics operations and fight drug cartels to build his wall. Our message back to the White House is simple and clear: California will see you in court."
