U.S. District Judge Karin Immergut has blocked Donald Trump's attempt to federalize and deploy the National Guard to Portland, Oregon, amid anti-ICE protests. The ruling, issued last Friday, found that civilian law enforcement had the situation under control and dismissed the Justice Department's claims as unreliable. Immergut, a Trump nominee, highlighted repeated falsehoods by government witnesses in her 106-page decision.
