Trump can’t believe it. Another judge has put a roadblock in his agenda.
And President Trump is furious thanks to this latest judicial order.
A federal judge in San Francisco has stepped in to handcuff President Trump’s efforts to protect American cities from chaos. The ruling blocks the deployment of National Guard units in Los Angeles, handing control back to California Governor Gavin Newsom, who has long been accused of letting radicals run wild in his state.
This mess all started back in early June when U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents did their job, conducting raids to enforce immigration laws.
What began as so-called peaceful gatherings on June 6 quickly spiraled into outright violence, with protesters clashing against law enforcement in the streets of LA.
Faced with this escalating mayhem, President Trump didn’t sit idly by. On June 7, he announced the federalization of National Guard troops, sending them to back up federal officers and restore peace where local leaders had failed miserably.
The Trump administration deployed a total of 4,000 troops in response to the violent riots that erupted after those ICE operations. It’s clear the president was acting to defend federal assets and innocent citizens from the mobs that Newsom and his cronies refused to rein in.
But now, U.S. District Judge Charles Breyer has thrown a wrench into the works, claiming Trump overstepped his legal bounds. In his Wednesday ruling, Breyer dismissed the administration’s stance that courts can’t meddle in the president’s emergency powers over the National Guard.
“The Founders designed our government to be a system of checks and balances,” Bryer stated. “Defendants, however, make clear that the only check they want is a blank one.”
This isn’t the first time activist judges have tried to undermine Trump’s America First agenda. Breyer’s decision reeks of partisan interference, prioritizing politics over public safety in one of the nation’s most troubled cities.
The White House isn’t backing down, and rightly so. They vow to fight this all the way, standing firm on the president’s authority to step in when states like California drop the ball.
“President Trump exercised his lawful authority to deploy National Guard troops to support federal officers and assets following violent riots that local leaders like Newscum refused to stop,” White House spokeswoman Abigail Jackson stated. “We look forward to ultimate victory on the issue.”
Newsom, ever the elite Democrat darling, wasted no time celebrating this courtroom win. His office blasted out a statement Wednesday morning, slamming Trump for daring to protect communities from the very unrest his policies helped fuel.
“Today’s ruling is abundantly clear — the federalization of the National Guard in California is illegal and must end,” Newsom stated.
“The President deployed these brave men and women against their own communities, removing them from essential public safety operations. We look forward to all National Guard servicemembers being returned to state service.”
While this gives Newsom a temporary pat on the back, the battle is far from over. Other parts of the legal fight linger, including an appeal against an August ruling that accused Trump’s deployment of violating the Posse Comitatus Act, which limits military roles in domestic policing.
Patriots know the Posse Comitatus Act was meant to prevent overreach, but in times of real crisis—like these riots—strong leadership is exactly what’s needed.
Trump’s move was about safeguarding U.S. borders and streets, not playing soldier in everyday affairs.
This isn’t just a California problem; the Trump team has federalized National Guard units in places like Oregon and Illinois too, where similar leftist-led chaos has boiled over. Those decisions are also facing court challenges from the same crowd that seemingly cheers on the destruction.
At the end of the day, this ruling exposes the deep divide in America: on one side, a president fighting for everyday folks against anarchy; on the other, judges and governors more interested in virtue-signaling than victory for the people.
