Headline: UNCAPTIONED: Appeals Court Allows Trump to Retain Control of California National Guard
Caption: Appeals Court Allows Trump to Retain Control of California National Guard. A federal appeals court has ruled that President Donald Trump can maintain control over thousands of California National Guardsmen. The 9th US Circuit Court of Appeals temporarily lifted a lower court's decision, which had ordered Trump to relinquish control of around 4,000 guardsmen federalized to support security efforts in Los Angeles amid immigration enforcement unrest. The court’s unsigned ruling stated that the president likely exercised his authority lawfully when he federalized the troops rejecting claims from California Governor Gavin Newsom that Trump had violated federal law. The ruling, issued by a panel that included both Trump and Biden appointees, extends a temporary hold on the lower court’s decision. California now has the option to appeal to the Supreme Court for an emergency intervention. Instructions: THIS VIDEO MUST NOT BE EDITED FOR LENGTH TO COMBINE WITH OTHER CONTENT
