California Gov. Gavin Newsom declined to give a direct answer when asked what age is too young for children to undergo transgender surgeries.

Newsom has defended the proposal as a break-the-emergency-glass maneuver to preserve what he has cast as America’s besieged democracy, arguing Democrats have to become more aggressive and creative to have a shot at blocking Trump’s agenda.

Fox News Jesse Watters tried to clear up his earlier claim that Gavin Newsom was lying in a denial of a phone call with Donald Trump last month, but the California governor indicated that he would still proceed with his defamation lawsuit against the network.

Trump called the project - which was meant to go from San Francisco to Los Angeles - the "High Speed Train to Nowhere."

One labor leader called out the governor “for not discussing common sense regulations on technology and AI to save jobs and to save privacy.”

Newsom laughed and responded, “You’re hitting me right there man, the California exodus. By the way, complete bulls—t. Now, the last two years, we’ve seen significant growth in California’s population. So it’s reversed, and record-breaking tourism.”

U.S. Border Patrol Chief Gregory Bovino said on X that one of those who was arrested had a list of convictions, including possession of narcotics with the intent to distribute. Another operation on Thursday took place in Los Angeles, he wrote.
