Newsom, or as Trump calls him, Newscum, tries to spin this court
decision as a win for himself by claiming what the decision really means
is that there are no kings.

President Donald Trump picked up another legal victory in his fight with Governor Gavin Newsom after an appeals court ruled that he acted within
the law when he deployed the California National Guard to protect
federal personnel and property in Los Angeles County.
The Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals on Thursday issued a 3-0 ruling in
favor of Trump, blocking a ruling from a district judge who said Trump
had violated the Constitution when he sent in the National Guard against Newsom’s wishes.
“Both irreparable harm and the public interest weigh in favor of
Defendants, who have an uncontested interest in the protection of
federal agents and property and the faithful execution of law,” the
court wrote in its decision. “The undisputed facts demonstrate that
before the deployment of the National Guard, protesters ‘pinned down’ several federal officers and threw ‘concrete chunks, bottles of liquid,
and other objects’ at the officers. Protesters also damaged federal
buildings and caused the closure of at least one federal building.”
Last week, the same court granted an emergency injunction to Trump,
allowing him to retain control of the guard while the case played out in
court. The court said it was convinced by evidence that the guard
“engaged only in protecting federal personnel and property.”
Trump deployed the National Guard earlier this month after violence
broke out in multiple California cities, including Los Angeles and San Francisco, in response to ICE operations. At least 20 people have been federally charged with actions like spitting on or assaulting federal
officers and damaging federal property, while dozens more have been
arrested by local law enforcement.
Trump celebrated the decision from the appeals court.
“BIG WIN in the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals on the President’s core power to call in the National Guard! The Judges obviously realized that
Gavin Newscum is incompetent and ill prepared, but this is much bigger
than Gavin, because all over the United States, if our Cities, and our
people, need protection, we are the ones to give it to them should State
and Local Police be unable, for whatever reason, to get the job done,”
Trump posted on Truth Social. “This is a Great Decision for our Country,
and we will continue to protect and defend Law abiding Americans. Congratulations to the Ninth Circuit, America is proud of you tonight!”
Newsom also reacted to the decision, noting that the court wrote in its
ruling that presidents don’t have unlimited ability to use the National Guard.
“Donald Trump is not a king and not above the law. Tonight, the court
rightly rejected Trump’s claim that he can do whatever he wants with the National Guard and not have to explain himself to a court,” Newsom
posted on X. “We will not let this authoritarian use of military
soldiers against citizens go unchecked.”
Tensions have remained high in Los Angeles, with the Dodgers saying
Thursday that the major league baseball franchise turned away ICE agents
hoping to use their parking lots. Homeland Security denied this claim,
saying that vehicles with Customs and Border Protection were briefly in
the parking lot for a reason unrelated to operation or enforcement actions.
