Newsom Loses in Court (ForNow)
Timothy Birdnow
A judge has denied a request by Gavin Newsom to force Trump to immediately demobilize the National Guard in L.A.
Some sanity from a judge at last!
FTA:
There is no case to hear; the President is acting entirely in accordance with the law. This thing should just have been dismissed altogether.
But it suggests the judge will probably not support Newsom's case. He just wants to get it right so as not to be overturned.
A judge has denied a request by Gavin Newsom to force Trump to immediately demobilize the National Guard in L.A.
Some sanity from a judge at last!
FTA:
Newsom named the president, the Defense secretary, and the Department of Defense as defendants in the request, and a judge allowed the defendants 24 hours to file a response to the request.
'Defendants intend to use unlawfully federalized National Guard troops and Marines to accompany federal immigration enforcement officers on raids.'
United States District Judge Charles Breyer temporarily allowed the order to the National Guard to continue until Thursday, when the motion would be reconsidered after the defendants answered and the plaintiffs also responded.
Newsom had accused the president of trying to "militarize" Los Angeles. He asked the judge to halt the order within two hours of his filing.
"Defendants intend to use unlawfully federalized National Guard troops and Marines to accompany federal immigration enforcement officers on raids throughout Los Angeles," the lawsuit claimed. "They must be stopped, immediately."
