California Governor Gavin Newsom announced Sunday that 300 California National Guard members are being sent to Oregon, following a judge's block on deploying Oregon's own guard to Portland. Newsom vowed to legally challenge the move, calling it an "abuse of law and power" and a "political weapon" against citizens. The federalized troops were previously assigned to California in response to Los Angeles unrest. This deployment comes amid President Trump's efforts to quell protests in multiple cities, drawing criticism for authoritarian conduct.
