Judge rules Trump’s troop deployment in California was illegal

A judge has ruled that the Trump administration violated federal law by deploying National Guard troops in Southern California. Earlier this summer, President Trump sent troops to the Los Angeles area amid immigration operations and protests. California sued, arguing the troops were violating a law that prohibits military enforcement of domestic laws. A federal judge ruled in favor of the state, but did not require the remaining troops to be immediately withdrawn. The decision comes as Donald Trump has talked about deploying the National Guard to other cities, including Chicago and Baltimore.
