A federal judge, Charles R. Breyer, blocked President Trump's deployment of the California National Guard, siding with Gov. Newsom's lawsuit. Breyer ruled the president exceeded his authority and violated the Tenth Amendment. He ordered the National Guard's control returned to California, while the government appealed to the U.S. Court of Appeals. The National Guard and Marines were deployed amid immigration protests in California, with Newsom pursuing legal action to limit their roles effectively to protect federal facilities only and prevent potential harm to communities.
U.S. District Judge Charles R. Breyer ruled that President Donald Trump acted improperly, both exceeding the scope of his statutory authority and violating the Tenth Amendment to the United States Constitution.
Newsom, a Democrat, argued that he was not seeking to prevent the military from carrying out that mission but rather seeking narrow relief to avoid irreparable harm to our communities.
