Courts Stall National Guard Deployments Across U.S.

A federal judge in Chicago extended a restraining order indefinitely, pausing any National Guard deployment unless the U.S. Supreme Court steps in, as the administration seeks an emergency reversal. In Portland, a split 9th Circuit ruling let Trump assume command of Oregon Guard troops, but a separate order still blocks deployment, with a hearing Friday. A 9th Circuit panel is also weighing California cases over Los Angeles deployments and Posse Comitatus. In Washington, D.C., dueling suits challenge ongoing Guard presence, while Tennessee Democrats sue to halt patrols in Memphis.
