By Joseph Ax and Trevor Hunnicutt (Reuters) -Soon after scattered protests broke out in Los Angeles on Friday in the wake of federal immigration raids, President Donald Trump and California Governor Gavin Newsom spoke by phone.

The swiftly evolving situation in the Los Angeles area over protests surrounding immigration enforcement actions has also cued up a public spat between President Donald Trump and Gov. Gavin Newsom, the California governor who has been one of the Republican president's most vocal Democratic critics.

Trump is "unhinged right now," Gov. Gavin Newsom said, accusing the president of making the situation in LA worse by federalizing National Guard troops.
