The appellate judiciary appears set to uphold the former President's dominion over the California National Guard, initially deployed amidst Los Angeles' civil unrest precipitated by immigration enforcement actions, thereby challenging a lower court's mandate to cede authority to Governor Newsom, whose dissent from the deployment underscored a perceived overreach of executive power, a decision that could fundamentally reshape the parameters of presidential authority regarding domestic troop deployment and represents an unprecedented invocation of federal control over a state's National Guard absent gubernatorial consent since 1965; while the appellate panel, comprised of two Trump appointees and one Biden appointee, intimated a broad interpretation of presidential prerogative under the relevant federal statute, they nonetheless contested the Justice Department's assertion of judicial non-reviewability in this instance, foreshadowing an imminent and consequential ruling.
