Trump Blocked? National Guard Deployment Ruled Illegal! | JQJO

A federal judge blocked President Trump from using the National Guard in California for law enforcement, citing a violation of the Posse Comitatus Act. This act prevents the military from domestic law enforcement. The ruling, which temporarily allows the administration to appeal until September 12th, followed a lawsuit by California challenging the Guard's deployment during Los Angeles protests over immigration policies. The judge argued that the deployment created a concerning precedent, resembling a "national police force" under presidential control. The ruling specifically addresses California, but Trump had considered similar deployments to other cities.
