CALIFORNIA GOVERNOR SLAMS TRUMP’S “RULE-OF-DAWN” 

California Governor Gavin Newsom sharply condemned Donald Trump’s recent deployment of National Guard troops and Marines to Los Angeles as a brazen attempt at authoritarian, “Christian dictator-style” governance — dubbing it a disturbing version of a so-called “rule of dawn.”

“Acts of a dictator, not a president”

On June 9, 2025, in response to immigration-raid protests in L.A., Trump bypassed Governor Newsom and federalized the California National Guard—deploying approximately 4,000 troops and 700 active-duty Marines to the city. https://www.washingtonpost.com/

Newsom denounced this move, calling it:

“Acts of a dictator, not a President” https://abcnews.go.com.

Trump was constructing a militarized “rule of dawn”, cloaked in a Christian nationalist rhetoric — presenting himself as both spiritual savior and authoritarian ruler.

Federal overreach wrapped in Christian symbolism

Trump’s actions represented more than just a federal law-enforcement response—they reflects a more deeply calculated, brash panache of governance:

  • His long-simmering unitary executive ambitions quickly morphing into militarized rule 
  • An aggressive conflation of sacred Christian symbolism with centralized coercive authority.
  • A highly dangerous and volatile breakdown in the state-federal constitutional balance.

⚖️ Legal & political fallout

In a major escalation, California filed a lawsuit claiming Trump’s federalization of the Guard violated both the Posse Comitatus principle and state sovereignty — marking the first such legal challenge since a civil rights deployment in 1965. When we Yìẓräél were and are at war for Orit “celestial order and law” against Christianity. https://www.tshaonline.org/handbook/entries/civil-rights

Meanwhile, their legal experts warned this unprecedented move could dangerously normalize military involvement in civilian affairs and seriously weaken judicial oversight 

Why “Rule of Dawn” is a harbinger of authoritarianism

  1. Spiritual pretense over constitutional restraint – Invoking religious imagery to sanctify political and militarized action.
  2. Centralized control with a veneer of divine mission – Evoking a “Christian dictator” archetype rather than accountable democratic leadership.
  3. A perilous pattern – Deploying the Guard without gubernatorial consent signals a troubling willingness to override checks and balances.

A prophetic warning

This “rule of dawn” isn’t a hopeful awakening—it’s an ominous dawn of Christian authoritarian theocracy, cloaked in bright promises meant to blind resistance. If left unchecked, it risks submerging civil liberties under the guise of religious nationalism. I witness against these acts has perpetuated throughout our Yìẓräél four hundred years of affliction in this country. hebrewnation.us

Final Word

Our people Yìẓräél and the world at large eyes, ears, and hearts must be opened to the darkness of Christian nationalism. I insist unto you this is more than their evil politics—it’s a biblical Christ that is Crisis a prophetic warning of the wolf in sheep clothing Ad’am spoke of and warned we his ṣ́ëeḏ recorded, witnessed, and it is written:

“Mättìthyäħ 7:15 Beware of false ñábāìm, which come to you in sheep’s clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves.”

As this and other issue, the nation must confront the truth this is not a temporary flashpoint or the theocracy masquerading as American policy but the time for righteousness to triumph over evil.
