Former California Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger addressed the recent unrest in Los Angeles related to Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) raids, criticizing both Republican and Democratic politicians for failing to enact comprehensive immigration reform. Schwarzenegger argued that the ongoing riots and protests would not occur if politicians fulfilled their responsibilities and worked together to solve immigration issues. He also condemned the media's portrayal of Los Angeles as a "war zone," stating that this depiction is inaccurate and harmful to tourism. Schwarzenegger cautioned Governor Gavin Newsom against his threat to withhold state tax payments to the federal government amid the political dispute with President Donald Trump over immigration enforcement policies. He emphasized that politicians from both parties have used immigration as a political tool rather than addressing the problem effectively. Despite the current tensions, Schwarzenegger expressed confidence that California will recover from the anti-ICE protests.
