Turmoil has gripped the leadership ranks of the California National Guard, with the firing of one general, the suspension of a second general and new limits placed by Gov. Newsom on the organization’s use of fighter jets for civilian missions.

An F-15C air-to-air combat jet was placed on alert in case of unrest over the pandemic or election, sources and records say. The Guard denies it.

Baldwin said in a statement that he “lost faith, trust, and confidence in [Jones’] ability to foster an inclusive and healthy command climate.” “He’s been there too long,” Jones said. Then-Gov. Jerry Brown appointed Baldwin to the post in 2011. “He’s lost touch with reality.”
