Judge Halts Trump Troop Deployment to Los Angeles

A federal judge in San Francisco has temporarily halted the Trump administration's deployment of Marines and National Guard troops to Los Angeles, ruling that the federal government overstepped its authority by failing to notify Governor Gavin Newsom as required by law. The judge determined that President Trump's actions, intended to address immigration raids and protests, may have violated the Tenth Amendment and exceeded statutory limits. California has sued, arguing the deployment escalates tensions and unlawfully involves troops in civilian law enforcement, while the administration claims the situation constitutes a 'rebellion.' Former Attorney General Bill Barr has defended the president's authority, calling California's legal challenge baseless. The judge's order is currently stayed pending appeal as the legal battle continues. The events have intensified national debate over presidential powers, military deployment on U.S. soil, and immigration enforcement.
