San Francisco – 12 June 2025
1. SOUNDBITE (English) Gov. Gavin Newsom (D) California:
"Thanks everybody for taking the time to be here. We just had a chance to review the 36-page order from Justice Breyer. I’m gratified by the order, by his decision. Today was really about a test of democracy. And today, we passed the test. We, the people, passed the test."
++BLACK FRAMES++
2. SOUNDBITE (English) Gov. Gavin Newsom (D) California:
"But today’s order makes clear that he is not above or beyond constitutional constraints."
++BLACK FRAMES++
3. SOUNDBITE (English) Gov. Gavin Newsom (D) California:
"We’re gratified. Today is a big day for the Constitution of the United States, for our democracy. And I hope it’s the beginning of a new day in this country."
++BLACK FRAMES++
4. SOUNDBITE (English) Gov. Gavin Newsom (D) California:
"The National Guard will come back under my authority by noon tomorrow. The National Guard will be redeployed to what they were doing before Donald Trump commandeered them. The National Guard will go back to border security, working on counter drug enforcement and fentanyl enforcement, which they were taken off by Donald Trump."
++BLACK FRAMES++
5. SOUNDBITE (English) Gov. Gavin Newsom (D) California:
"The National Guard, men and women, will go to their day jobs, which include law enforcement."
++BLACK FRAMES++
6. SOUNDBITE (English) Gov. Gavin Newsom (D) California:
"It’s the kind of thing you see Kim Jong Un, you see it Putin, you see it with dictators around the world that are weak and just want to demonstrate strength. Weakness masquerading as strength, to fete the dear leader on his birthday. What an embarrassment, honestly, that’s about as small as it gets. How weak, how weak do you have to be to commandeer the military to fete you on your birthday in a vulgar display of weakness? That’s Donald Trump."
++BLACK FRAMES++
7. SOUNDBITE (English) Gov. Gavin Newsom (D) California:
"Well, there’s been a lot of rhetoric from Pete Hegseth, if that’s his name, that "they(Marines)’ve been
deployed." But it doesn’t appear they have been, but they were making you believe that. And so I think the judge was waiting for the evidence that they actually had been deployed into Los Angeles, which they appear not to be. Of course, they’re not coordinating with anybody on this. So he’s just waiting for that evidence."
++BLACK FRAMES++
8. SOUNDBITE (English) Gov. Gavin Newsom (D) California:
"The notion that the United States active duty marines, these heroes, would be used to militarize the streets of an American city, is an abomination."
++BLACK FRAMES++
9. SOUNDBITE (English) Gov. Gavin Newsom (D) California:
"He is not a monarch. He’s not a king. And he should stop acting like one."
++BLACK FRAMES++
10. SOUNDBITE (English) Gov. Gavin Newsom (D) California:
"I spoke to him on Friday night. He had a mysterious conversation with me three days later. You can’t even make this stuff up."
++BLACK FRAMES++
11. SOUNDBITE (English) Gov. Gavin Newsom (D) California:
"Oh, I would love to share the readout, but I revere the Office of Presidency, so I’ll keep it in confidence. He is quite literally made up components of that conversation. He’s been a stone-cold liar about what he said we talked about. He never discussed the National Guard, period, full stop. I would loved to share with you what he actually talked about that would send shivers up your fine spine."
++EDIT ENDS ON SOUNDBITE++
