In CAMP PENDLETON, Calif., a portion of Interstate 5 is set to close temporarily on Saturday afternoon for a live-fire military demonstration, sparking safety concerns among state officials. The event, scheduled at Camp Pendleton, has drawn significant attention due to its proximity to the bustling I-5 freeway.

Governor Gavin Newsom expressed strong disapproval of the federal government’s decision to proceed with the demonstration. He criticized the move, emphasizing the risk to public safety posed by conducting live artillery fire near a major highway.

Newsom stated, “The President is prioritizing personal pride over safety. It is not only incorrect to fire live rounds near a busy road; it is perilous.”
