Both Trump and his “border czar,” Tom Homan, have said California officials could face arrest if they’re perceived as impeding ICE operations.

California Gov. Gavin Newsom pushed back against threats of arrest by Trump administration officials, remaining defiant as he oversees clashes between law enforcement agents and protesters in response to immigration raids across Los Angeles while also managing an ongoing power struggle with the federal government.

In an interview for MSNBC with NBC News’ Jacob Soboroff, Newsom called Homan’s bluff, urging him to “just get it over with” and move ahead with the arrest.

“He’s a tough guy. Why doesn’t he do that? He knows where to find me,” Newsom said. “That kind of bloviating is exhausting. So, Tom, arrest me. Let’s go."

        No, but I’m also not berating people for not doing more.

        You seem fine judging people saying they’re not doing enough. I mean, you wouldn’t do that unless you were walking the walk right?

        Or are you just a keyboard warrior lol. Yelling at people to do stuff you’re not ready or willing to do. You want everyone to fix your problems for ya huh?

        But you didn’t answer my question because you know all that.
