Federal Judge Blocks President Trump's National Guard Deployment in Los Angeles
A federal judge has blocked President Trump's decision to deploy National Guard troops to Los Angeles, ordering that control be returned to California Governor Gavin Newsom. The Trump administration had claimed that recent protests against immigration authorities justified federal control of the state's National Guard. However, U.S. District Judge Charles Breyer rejected this argument, emphasizing the importance of checks and balances in government and the judiciary's role in reviewing executive actions.
