Appeals Court Quickly Shoots Down Activist Judge — Lets Trump Keep National Guard On Street

A federal appeals court quickly halted a lower court’s order directing President Donald Trump to turn over control of the National Guard to California Thursday night.

The Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals allowed Trump to keep the National Guard in Los Angeles at least through Tuesday, when it scheduled a hearing to consider the issue.

Judge Charles B. Breyer, a Clinton appointee, found Trump’s decision to send in the National Guard amid riots in Los Angeles was illegal and blocked him from keeping them in the city. The Trump administration immediately appealed the ruling to the Ninth Circuit.
