Gov. Gavin Newsom‘s (D-CA) lawyers argued to a federal judge Monday that the lower court still has some authority to block President Donald Trump’s use of the National Guard in Los Angeles, despite an appeals court blocking a previous order from that judge,

President Donald Trump can maintain control of the California National Guard, a federal appeals court has ruled, overturning an earlier decision that found the President’s mobilization of the troops was “illegal.

The unanimous order from a three-judge panel for the U.S. Court of Appeals for the 9th Circuit is a victory for the president and allows for the continued deployment of roughly 4,000 National Guard troops to Los Angeles, where they have been protecting federal property and U.S. immigration agents during enforcement operations.
