Overview

  • A three-judge panel in San Francisco ruled unanimously that the president could federalize the National Guard without state approval.
  • Governor Gavin Newsom challenged the deployment, arguing that the president was overstepping constitutional authority.
  • Protests erupted in Los Angeles after ICE conducted aggressive arrests of undocumented immigrants.
  • This marks the first time since 1965 that the Guard has been mobilized in a state without the governor’s consent.
  • President Trump hailed the ruling as a "great victory" and insisted the federal government must step in when local authorities cannot ensure protection.
