Judge blocks national guard deployment to Oregon after legal action by Newsom

California governor says president attacking rule of law' as Trump-appointed judge rules twice to stop national guard from any state being used in Oregon

A federal judge has temporarily blocked the Trump administration from deploying any national guard units to Oregon a few hours after the California governor, Gavin Newsom, announced he would sue the president over the planned deployment of his state's troops.

Both states sought the temporary restraining order after the president sent guard members from California to Oregon earlier in the day. On Saturday, the same judge temporarily blocked the administration from deploying Oregon's national guard troops to Portland.
