President Donald Trump hints at possibly withholding wildfire aid to California

President Donald Trump on Wednesday, June 18, hinted at the possibility that his latest feud with Gov. Gavin Newsom over mass federal immigration raids – and the use of military troops to protect federal buildings and agents as they carry out those enforcement actions – could impact additional wildfire aid to California.

Asked by a reporter if his latest “dust-ups” with Newsom could impact relief aid to help California recover from the devastating January wildfires, Trump said, “Yeah, maybe.”
