Judge orders Trump to end National Guard troop deployment in L.A.
A federal judge has ordered the Trump administration to stop deploying California National Guard troops in Los Angeles. The judge in San Francisco granted a preliminary injunction sought by California officials to end the deployment and return the 100 or so remaining troops to the state’s command. But he also put the decision on hold until Monday. Back in June, the Trump administration ordered the deployment of thousands of troops to Los Angeles over Governor Gavin Newsom’s objections. California officials argued that conditions in L-A had changed since then, but the administration said remaining Guard members were still needed.
