The 9th Circuit Court has ruled that President Trump can deploy National Guard troops to Portland, but legal questions surrounding this decision remain. An appeals court confirmed that Trump can federalize the Oregon National Guard, although deployment is currently blocked. The ruling has sparked a range of responses, including calls from Portland officials for troops to disobey orders and requests to send them home. The Department of Justice is urging a judge to dissolve a temporary restraining order that prevents the deployment of troops, highlighting ongoing tensions and differing opinions on the matter. Legal experts are analyzing the implications of the court’s ruling, while the situation continues to develop.
