The Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals has issued a temporary stay on a federal judge's order compelling President Trump to relinquish control of the National Guard, deployed in response to protests stemming from immigration raids in Los Angeles, back to the state of California. This action follows a previous ruling by U.S. District Judge Charles Breyer, who had declared the deployment unlawful, asserting it contravened the Tenth Amendment and exceeded the President's statutory authority. Governor Gavin Newsom of California lauded the initial ruling, while the White House denounced Breyer's order as "unprecedented" and an "abuse of power." The injunction pertains solely to the National Guard, excluding the concurrently deployed Marine Corps. Newsom initiated legal proceedings to prevent the National Guard deployment, arguing it would exacerbate tensions and foment civil unrest. This deployment was executed under Title 10 authority, which empowers the President to federalize the National Guard under specific exigencies.
