Judge says Trump illegally deployed National Guard to LA
A federal judge says President Trump illegally deployed the National Guard to help with LA protests. In a temporary restraining order, the judge said the president must return control over National Guard troops to California Governor Gavin Newsom. The order said the deployment of the Guard was illegal, violated both the Tenth Amendment, and exceeded Donald Trump’s statutory authority. According to the judge, the protests in Los Angeles fall far short of the “rebellion” cited by the president. The Justice Department immediately filed an appeal.
