IN FULL
U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) Commissioner Rodney Scott reports that at least ten juveniles, all illegal aliens, were found working at a marijuana farm during an immigration raid in Governor Gavin Newsom’s California.
“Here’s some breaking news: 10 juveniles were found at this marijuana facility – all illegal aliens, 8 of them unaccompanied. It’s now under investigation for child labor violations,” Commissioner Scott said. He was replying to a post on X by Governor Newsom, who was complaining about the immigration raid.
The incident in Camarillo, owned by Glass House Brands Inc., saw U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents forced to use rubber bullets and smoke grenades after pro-illegal immigrant agitators attempted to disrupt the raid.
In reaction to Commissioner Scott’s comments, Governor Newsom’s office released a statement saying, “There’s a real cost to these inhumane immigration actions on hardworking families and communities, including farmworker communities, across America.” Notably, he did not address the human cost of illegal alien children being exploited as a source of labor.
The exchange underscores the tensions between Newsom and the Trump administration, which previously flared during riots in Los Angeles against ICE, which soon spread to other cities. President Trump sent both the National Guard and the U.S. Marines to help ICE and Los Angeles law enforcement during the riots, with Newsom attempting to stop this by filing lawsuits.
