U.S. District Judge Charles Breyer once again has blocked President Donald Trump from deploying the National Guard to Los Angeles, CA.
“Six months after they first federalized the California National Guard, Defendants still retain control of approximately 300 Guardsmen, despite no evidence that execution of federal law is impeded in any way—let alone significantly,” wrote Breyer. “What’s more, Defendants have sent California Guardsmen into other states, effectively creating a national police force made up of state troops.”
California Gov. Gavin Newsom and other plaintiffs filed a motion to enjoin this conduct. The Trump administration took “the position that, after a valid initial federalization, all subsequent re federalizations are completely, and forever, unreviewable by the courts.”
The “Defendants’ position is contrary to law,” stated Breyer.
Okay, so here’s the background because this is the third time Breyer issued this ruling.
In June, Breyer ruled that Trump’s order violated the 10th Amendment and exceeded his statutory authority.
