Judge Breyer sets hearing on California's lawsuit challenging Trump's federalization of National Guard amid escalating anti-ICE protests in Los Angeles
The Justice Department called California Gov. Gavin Newsom’s (D) attempt for a judge to limit President Trump’s National Guard deployment in Los Angeles a “crass political stunt endangering
The governor bragged about working with ICE in California but said that President Trump was “trying to gin things up to create problems” at protests.
The Justice Department claims California's request to limit the federal response to violent riots in Los Angeles would "countermand" the president's lawful military directives.
California Gov. Gavin Newsom (D) has argued that the deployment is “an illegal act, an immoral act, an unconstitutional act.”
President Donald Trump has authorized the deployment of an additional 2,000 National Guard members to help respond to protests in Los Angeles over immigration raids.
"Neither the National Guard nor the Marines are engaged in law enforcement," the DOJ's motion reads. "Rather, they are protecting law enforcement."
