A U.S. judge on Thursday temporarily barred Donald Trump from deploying National Guard troops in Los Angeles, finding that the Guard was unlawfully mobilized by Trump.
Judge Charles Breyer ordered the National Guard to return to the control of California Governor Gavin Newsom, who sued to restrict its activity. Breyer’s order will take effect at noon on Friday.
“The Court is troubled by the implication inherent in Defendants’ argument that protest against the federal government, a core civil liberty protected by the First Amendment, can justify a finding of rebellion,” Breyer wrote.
The Trump administration immediately appealed the judge’s order.
Lemme guess. He’s gonna appeal and another judge will pause this decision while they take their time to review the appeal, because Trump shows daily how deserving he is of the benefit of the doubt.
Meanwhile things keep escalating and people get hurt.
Right?
Keep giving fingers, keep losing arms. Trump relies on shortsightedness to advance, and there’s plenty to go around. You falter, he swallows you whole before you can even react. Be cordial, get taken advantage of, like a sucker. 100 out of 100 times. Guaranteed.
Aaand it already happened…
Yup. Just saw it and came back to check if someone had already replied the obvious before I could. Thank you.
What a joke of a justice system. Things are where they are because as slow as Fat Blob Trump is, he’s still faster than the law. By the time they finally decide to actually state his actions are illegal it’ll be last year’s news already, while another judge’s order gets paused on the latest scandal of the day.
If the law were any good neither him or his ilk would even get the chance to run a first term. Because many of them would be jailed for all sorts of crimes, and the rest wouldn’t dare to act with fear of the consequences. Weak men create hard times.
Big difference this term is that Trump has his team locked in, there’s consistency to the approach and commitment to their evil goals. The first term we were measuring tenures in mooches, this term there have been barely any departures so far. That lets them push and push and push.
*legal system.
rarely there is ever any “justice.”
