Headline: UNCAPTIONED: Judge Blocks Trump's National Guard Deployment to Los Angeles
Caption: Judge Blocks Trump’s National Guard Deployment to Los Angeles. A federal judge has ruled that the Trump administration acted illegally by deploying California’s National Guard to Los Angeles without California Governor Gavin Newsom’s approval. The move came as Trump claimed the troops were needed to control protests against his immigration policies, warning the city was at risk of burning down. However, California officials argued the situation was under control and sued Trump’s administration for bypassing the governor’s authority. Judge Charles Breyer agreed, stating Trump violated federal law by overriding state control of the Guard. The judge ordered the troops be returned to Newsom’s command, but delayed enforcement until Friday to allow for an appeal. The Trump administration responded by filing that appeal almost immediately.
