00:00Federal Judge Issues Ruling on National Guard Troops

00:04So apparently, deploying troops to stop rioting is now unconstitutional.

00:08A federal judge blocked the president's efforts to restore law and order.

00:12In a so-called emergency order, U.S. District Judge Karen J. Emmergut barred Trump from

00:17deploying California's National Guard to help stabilize Portland.

00:21The ruling also blocks troops from any other state, or even Washington, D.C., from being

00:26sent into Oregon.

00:27Sounds like the people of Portland are on their own.

00:30According to the judge, Trump's attempt to federalize the Guard violated both 10 U.S.C.

00:35Section 12406 and the 10th Amendment.

00:39This is a performative ruling.

00:41The federal government has the right to protect federal property.

00:44If unfit judges won't allow Trump to send any National Guard to Portland, then he should

00:49just send active duty military.

00:52California Governor Gavin Newsom rushed to Ex to declare victory over Trump, as if stopping

00:56300 National Guard troops from helping a city under siege was some bold act of freedom.

01:02His words, not errors, Trump's abuse of power won't stand.

01:07Businesses get looted, people get attacked, buildings burn, but heaven forbid the president

01:11try to send in troops to, you know, stop that.

01:14Judge Karen J. Emmergut openly grilled a Justice Department attorney in court, asking whether the

01:19government was trying to circumvent her order.

01:22Denied, no reconsideration, no delay.

01:25Apparently Portland's ongoing collapse doesn't count as an emergency.

01:29Let's not forget the same city that declared itself a sanctuary and refused to cooperate

01:34with ICE is now being protected from its own National Guard by federal judges.

01:39Meanwhile, the DOJ is prepping an appeal, arguing, reasonably, that the president has authority

01:45under federal law to deploy National Guard troops in cases of domestic unrest.

01:50A judge saying absolutely not, and governors celebrating it like it's a win for democracy,

01:56when all it really does is signal to the mob that no one's coming to stop them.
