Breyer ruled that the federalization and continued deployment of California National Guard troops, including their use in other states such as Portland and Chicago, was unlawful. He expressed concern that the management&#8217;s position-that subsequent federalizations after the initial one are beyond judicial review-could allow a president to create a <a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/3YuVZYV\" >permanent national police force<\/a> using state troops. While Breyer paused the effect of his ruling until December 15 to allow for an appeal by the Justice Department,his decisions have challenged Trump&#8217;s use of National Guard forces amid unrest and efforts to protect federal property and officials. The legal battles have affected deployments in various cities, with some being allowed to continue and others halted by the courts.  <\/p>\n<p class=\"readmore\">\n    <button onclick=\"showReadMore()\" id=\"readmorebtn\">Read more&#8230;<\/button>\n<\/p>\n<hr id=\"line\">\n<span id=\"more\"><\/p>\n<p><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><\/p>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><span class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-button\"><i class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-icon td-icon-mobile\"><\/i><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><span class=\"tdb-header-search-button-mob dropdown-toggle\" data-toggle=\"dropdown\"><i class=\"tdb-mobile-search-icon td-icon-search\"><\/i><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><span class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-button\"><i class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-icon td-icon-mobile\"><\/i><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\">\n<div class=\"tdb-drop-down-search\" aria-labelledby=\"td-header-search-button\">\n<div class=\"tdb-drop-down-search-inner\">\n<form method=\"get\" class=\"tdb-search-form\" action=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/\"><\/form>\n<div class=\"tdb-aj-search\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/#\" role=\"button\" aria-label=\"Search\" class=\"tdb-head-search-btn dropdown-toggle\" data-toggle=\"dropdown\"><i class=\"tdb-search-icon td-icon-search\"><\/i><\/a><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\">\n<h1 class=\"tdb-title-text\">Judge blocks Trump&rsquo;s LA troops deployment for third time after getting overruled twice<\/h1>\n<div><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-title-line\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\">\n<div id=\"Brid_2424858\" class=\"tpd-featured-video bridtv\"><\/div>\n<p>U.S. District Judge Charles Breyer blocked President <a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/tag\/donald-trump\/\">Donald Trump<\/a>&lsquo;s use of the California <a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/tag\/national-guard\/\">National Guard<\/a> for a third time on Wednesday, despite an appeals court halting Breyer&rsquo;s two previous orders stopping the deployment of troops to Los Angeles.<\/p>\n<p>Breyer <a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" href=\"https:\/\/storage.courtlistener.com\/recap\/gov.uscourts.cand.450934\/gov.uscourts.cand.450934.225.0_2.pdf\">granted a request<\/a> by California officials to declare Trump&rsquo;s federalization and deployment of National Guard troops unlawful, citing extensions after the initial deployment of troops to Los Angeles following unrest in June and the administration&rsquo;s subsequent deployment of some federalized California troops to Portland and Chicago.

What&rsquo;s more, Defendants have sent California Guardsmen into other states, effectively creating a national police force made up of state troops,&rdquo; Breyer said in his ruling.<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;In response to Plaintiffs&rsquo; motion to enjoin this conduct, Defendants take the position that, after a valid initial federalization, all subsequent re-federalizations are completely, and forever, unreviewable by the courts. Defendants&rsquo; position is contrary to law,&rdquo; he wrote.<\/p>\n<p>Breyer described the Trump administration&rsquo;s position that the president&rsquo;s order to federalize National Guard troops is unreviewable as &ldquo;shocking,&rdquo; rejecting that argument.<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;Indeed, at the motion hearing, Defendants confirmed their position that, after an initial federalization, all extensions of federalization orders are utterly unreviewable, forever,&rdquo; he wrote.<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;That is shocking. Adopting Defendants&rsquo; interpretation of Section 12406 would permit a president to create a perpetual police force comprised of state troops, so long as they were first federalized lawfully,&rdquo; Breyer added.<\/p>\n<p>Breyer previously ruled that Trump&rsquo;s initial federalization and deployment of National Guard troops was unlawful in June, later ruling the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/judge-rules-trump-deployment-of-national-guard-to-los-angeles-violated-federal-law\/\" title=\"Judge rules Trump ... of National Guard to Los Angeles violated ...\">troops violated federal law<\/a> by allegedly acting as civilian law enforcement in September. Both rulings were halted by the U.S. Court of Appeals for the 9th Circuit, allowing the deployment of troops to Los Angeles to continue uninterrupted. The DOJ has until Monday to secure a pause of Breyer&rsquo;s latest ruling to prevent an interruption in the troop deployment.<\/p>\n<p><strong><a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/news\/justice\/3907947\/appeals-court-allows-dc-national-guard-deployment-continue\/\">APPEALS COURT ALLOWS DC NATIONAL GUARD DEPLOYMENT TO CONTINUE<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The president&rsquo;s use of troops in Los Angeles was the first instance where his National Guard deployments faced a legal battle.
