The deployment of National Guard troops in Los Angeles sparked widespread protests against immigration raids and legal challenges. The 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals temporarily blocked a federal judge's order that deemed Trump’s deployment of troops illegal, citing violations of the Tenth Amendment. California Governor Gavin Newsom hailed the earlier ruling as a democratic victory, while the White House condemned the decision, asserting it undermined presidential authority. The situation has drawn attention from other cities, amplifying tensions surrounding immigration policies and military presence in civilian protests.
The White House stated that the district court's order "puts our brave federal officials in danger," and emphasized the President's lawful authority in deploying the troops.
California Gov. Gavin Newsom characterized the earlier ruling as a crucial test of democracy, emphasizing the importance of legality in military deployments.
