A federal judge in Oregon on Sunday barred Donald Trump’s administration from deploying the National Guard to Portland, Oregon until at least Friday, saying she “found no credible evidence” that protests in the city grew out of control before the president federalized the troops earlier this fall.
The city and state sued in September to block the deployment. It’s the latest development in weeks of legal back-and-forth in Portland, Chicago and other U.S. cities as the Trump administration has moved to federalize and deploy the National Guard in city streets to quell protests.
The ruling from U.S. District Court Judge Karin Immergut, a Trump appointee, followed a three-day trial in which both sides argued over whether protests at the city’s U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement building met the conditions for using the military domestically under federal law.
Dang, with all of these fires all over the city in Portland none of us have to pay for heat anymore. Everywhere is a BBQ joint.
PROOF Democrat cities are completely burning down. Eating their neighbors with BBQ and getting high from their ashes? What will they stoop to next?
