Federal judge temporarily blocks Trump's plan to deploy National Guard in Portland

A federal judge in Oregon has temporarily blocked President Trump's administration from deploying the National Guard in Portland. U.S. District Judge Karin Immergut ruled that the small protests did not justify federalized forces and could harm state sovereignty. The administration argued the deployment was necessary to protect federal buildings, but the judge found the president's determination "untethered to the facts." The White House plans to appeal the decision, with officials stating the president exercised lawful authority to protect federal assets.
