The president doesn’t have the freedom to seize control of state security guards, but the Trump administration said it has provided sufficient evidence to show that there is a defensible basis for doing so, citing the violence of protesters.

“The indisputable fact shows that before the deployment of the National Guard, protesters anchored several federal officers and threw “concrete chunks, liquid bottles, and other objects” at the officers. Protesters damaged federal buildings, causing the closure of at least one federal building. The court wrote. “The federal government’s interest in preventing such incidents is important.”

He said, “If all over the United States, our cities and our people need protection, then we are those who give it to them, and if for some reason the local police can’t get the job done, then we give them.”

Newsom issued a statement expressing disappointment that the court is allowing Trump to maintain control of security personnel. However, he also welcomed one aspect of the decision.

“The court correctly rejected Trump’s argument. He can do anything he can with the National Guard and doesn’t have to explain himself to the court,” Newsom said. “The President is not the King and does not exceed the law. We will advance our challenge to President Trump’s authoritarian use of US soldiers against citizens.”

The lawsuit began when Newsom sued to block Trump from command, and he received an early victory from US District Judge Charles Breyer in San Francisco.

Breyer discovers that Trump has stepped over his legal authority. He said that only the president can take control in an era of “the danger of rebellion and rebellion.”

“The protests in Los Angeles are far from reaching a ‘rebellion’,” Breyer wrote.

However, the Trump administration argued that the courts could not speculate on the president’s decision a second time, and soon Temporary stop From the Court of Appeal.

The ruling means that control of the California State Guard will remain in the federal government as the lawsuit continues to unfold.
