Judge says Trump illegally deployed National Guard; appeals court blocks it

Manila Bulletin

|

June 14 2025

A federal judge issued a temporary restraining order Thursday directing President Donald Trump to return control of the National Guard to California.

But the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals temporarily blocked the federal judge's order and said it would hold a hearing on the matter on June 17. The ruling came only hours after the federal judge's order was to take effect at noon Friday.

The order by U.S. District Judge Charles Breyer, which was supposed to take effect at noon Friday, said the deployment of the Guard was illegal and both violated the Tenth Amendment and exceeded Trump's statutory authority.

Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem pledged Thursday to carry on with the Trump administration's immigration crackdown despite waves of unrest across the U.S., while in Texas thousands of National Guard troops were on standby in case more trouble breaks out.
