This move comes amid ongoing tensions with former President Donald Trump, who had threatened to send National Guard troops to some cities without local approval. Newsom emphasized that his approach contrasts with Trump&#8217;s by partnering with local authorities rather than overriding them,aiming to improve public safety through collaboration and strategic crime-fighting efforts.<\/p>\n<p>The deployment will involve intelligence-driven tactics and a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/robert-e-lee-statue-at-center-of-unite-the-right-rally-removed-nearly-4-years-later\/\" title=\"Robert E. Lee Statue At Center Of \u2018Unite The Right\u2019 Rally Removed Nearly 4 Years Later\">visible police presence<\/a> targeting high-crime areas, with teams ranging from 12 to 15 officers initially, expanding according to local needs. Newsom cited prior successes in crime reduction through such state-local partnerships, including dramatic decreases in homicides and shootings in Bakersfield and large-scale drug seizures in San Francisco. Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass welcomed the state&#8217;s support, highlighting the importance of collaboration to effectively address crime.<\/p>\n<p>Newsom reiterated that the decision to deploy state police is not a direct reaction to Trump&#8217;s threats but a response to California residents&#8217; desire for <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/police-increase-presence-at-shopping-malls-crowded-areas-in-northern-virginia-amid-isis-terror-threat-report\/\" title=\"Police Increase Presence At Shopping Malls, Crowded Areas In Northern Virginia Amid ISIS Terror Threat: Report\">increased law enforcement presence<\/a>. He criticized Trump&#8217;s federal deployments as militarizing cities without community consent and reaffirmed his commitment to working with local leaders to maintain progress in reducing crime. <br \/> <!DOCTYPE html><br \/>\n<?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><html><body><\/p>\n<p class=\"readmore\">\n    <button onclick=\"showReadMore()\" id=\"readmorebtn\">Read more&#8230;<\/button>\n<\/p>\n<hr id=\"line\">\n<span id=\"more\"><\/p>\n<p><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><\/p>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><span class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-button\"><i class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-icon td-icon-mobile\"><\/i><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><span class=\"tdb-header-search-button-mob dropdown-toggle\" data-toggle=\"dropdown\"><i class=\"tdb-mobile-search-icon td-icon-search\"><\/i><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><span class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-button\"><i class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-icon td-icon-mobile\"><\/i><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\">\n<div class=\"tdb-drop-down-search\" aria-labelledby=\"td-header-search-button\">\n<div class=\"tdb-drop-down-search-inner\">\n<form method=\"get\" class=\"tdb-search-form\" action=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/\"><\/form>\n<div class=\"tdb-aj-search\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/#\" role=\"button\" aria-label=\"Search\" class=\"tdb-head-search-btn dropdown-toggle\" data-toggle=\"dropdown\"><i class=\"tdb-search-icon td-icon-search\"><\/i><\/a><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\">\n<h1 class=\"tdb-title-text\">Newsom deploys state police after Trump threatens to send in National Guard<\/h1>\n<div><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-title-line\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\">\n<div id=\"Brid_2214714\" class=\"tpd-featured-video bridtv\"><\/div>\n<p>Gov. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/tag\/gavin-newsom\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Gavin Newsom<\/a> (D-CA) will deploy state law enforcement officers to fight <a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/tag\/crime\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">crime<\/a> in several <a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/tag\/California\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">California<\/a> cities, his office announced Thursday.<\/p>\n<p>Newsom&rsquo;s announcement came two months after his administration filed a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.courtlistener.com\/docket\/70496361\/1\/newsom-v-trump\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">lawsuit<\/a> against President Donald Trump for <a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/news\/3496860\/trump-national-guard-deployment-los-angeles-trial\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">sending National Guard troops to Los Angeles<\/a> without the state or city&rsquo;s approval.

State police will use intelligence, data-driven tactics, and a visible police presence to target high-crime areas, use proactive enforcement to prevent organized crime, and work with local law enforcement, according to the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gov.ca.gov\/2025\/08\/28\/governor-newsom-deploys-new-teams-to-fight-crime-in-major-california-cities-building-on-existing-successful-efforts\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">release<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>The state police will begin deployment immediately, with all teams expected to be operational in the next two weeks, Jaime Coffee, communications director for the CHP, told the <em>Washington Examiner<\/em>.<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;These crime suppression teams will be established in six CHP Divisions, or regions of the state, and range in size from a floor-level buy-in&nbsp;of 12 to 15 officers. Those numbers will grow depending on the size and scope of the operation, as well as the needs of the community we&rsquo;re working with,&rdquo; Coffee said.<\/p>\n<p>Just one day before Newsom announced the increased effort to fight crime in Los Angeles and San Francisco, he reshared news articles <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/GavinNewsom\/status\/1960574587562856757\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">on X<\/a> that <a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/3YuVZYV\" >praised 60-year low homicide rates<\/a> in both cities.<\/p>\n<p>Newsom said the key difference between his state police deployment and Trump&rsquo;s National Guard deployment is that he is doing it in partnership with local authorities, not in disregard of them.<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;When the state and local communities work together strategically, public safety improves. While the Trump Administration undermines cities, California is partnering with them &mdash; and delivering real results. With these new deployments, we&rsquo;re doubling down on these partnerships to build on progress and keep driving crime down,&rdquo; Newsom said in the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gov.ca.gov\/2025\/08\/28\/governor-newsom-deploys-new-teams-to-fight-crime-in-major-california-cities-building-on-existing-successful-efforts\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">press release<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>The governor&rsquo;s office <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gov.ca.gov\/2025\/08\/28\/governor-newsom-deploys-new-teams-to-fight-crime-in-major-california-cities-building-on-existing-successful-efforts\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">touted<\/a> the crime reduction results from state officer deployment in the past several years.<\/p>\n<p>In 2023, California state authorities partnered with former San Francisco Mayor London Breed as part of a crime reduction effort in the Bay Area. State and local San Francisco law enforcement seized over 700 pounds of fentanyl and issued 6,200 citations as part of the operation, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=YjZds3mrAL4\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">according to Newsom<\/a>. Following a 2024 deployment of state CHP officers, Bakersfield saw a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bakersfieldcity.us\/?contentId=0c6e2210-64c1-4f00-893b-580c2edf7207\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">57% reduction<\/a> in homicides and a 60% reduction in shootings, according to city authorities.<\/p>\n<p>Reporters present during Newsom&rsquo;s deployment announcement on Thursday asked if he made the decision in response to Trump&rsquo;s threats to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/news\/white-house\/3783235\/trump-national-guard-cities-crime-country-in-danger\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">deploy more National Guard troops<\/a> in Democratic cities. <\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;I&rsquo;ve had probably nine or 10 press conferences on this topic over the course of the last few years, so we&rsquo;re not reacting or responding to anything,&rdquo; Newsom <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=YjZds3mrAL4\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">said<\/a>. He told reporters he made the decision because Californians want to see more law enforcement measures.<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;He&rsquo;s doing things to people, not with people.
