Immergut, who was appointed by #Trump in his first term, seemed incredulous that he moved to send #NationalGuard #troops to #Oregon from neighboring #California & then from #Texas on Sunday, just hours after she had ruled the first time.
“How could bringing in federalized National Guard from California not be in direct contravention to the temporary restraining order I issued yesterday?” she questioned the federal govt’s attorney, cutting him off.

A federal judge late Sunday temporarily blocked the #Trump admin from deploying any #NationalGuard units to #Oregon at all, after a legal whirlwind that began hours earlier when Trump mobilized #California troops for #Portland after the same judge blocked him from using Oregon’s National Guard the day before.
During a hastily called evening telephone hearing, US District Judge Karin Immergut granted a temporary restraining order sought by CA & OR.

You COULD try to take a dip in this, but you would probably get boiled alive. It can get up to 199°F (92°C)!🔥
“The commander-in-chief is using the US #military as a political weapon against
American #citizens,” Newsom said in the statement. “We will take this fight to court, but the public cannot stay silent in the face of such reckless & #authoritarian conduct by the president of the #UnitedStates.”

Newsom, a Democrat, said in a statement that #California #NationalGuard personnel were on their way Sunday & called the deployment “a breathtaking abuse of the law & power.”
US District Judge Karin Immergut, who was appointed by #Trump during his first term, issued the order pending further arguments in the suit. She said the relatively small protests the city has seen did not justify the use of federalized forces & allowing the deployment could harm #Oregon #state #sovereignty.
There was no official announcement from the #Trump admin that the #California #NationalGuard was being called up & sent to #Oregon, just as was the case when #Illinois’ governor made a similar announcement Saturday about #troops in his state being activated.

It's a stormy, wet day at #ForkedMeadow #California where there just was a rumble of thunder and it's steadily raining a cold rain. Currently it's 42f and so far 0.16" of rain has come down. It looks like a big thunder cell is approaching.
