Trump lawyers told the court that Trump has "no obligation" to consult, or even notify California Gov. Newsom before federalizing National Guard troops to quell anti-ICE protests.
California Gov. Gavin Newsom filed an emergency motion on Tuesday to block the Trump administration's deployment of Marines and National Guard.
In response to the protests in his state, Texas Gov. Greg Abbott, a Republican, has announced that he intends to deploy the National Guard across the state to “ensure peace and order” ahead of further planned demonstrations against the Trump Administration’s immigration policies.
