Gavin Newsom. In its ruling, the 9th Circuit panel wrote that the restraining order was essentially a preliminary injunction, which Breyer said made his Friday hearing moot since it had initially been scheduled to weigh whether to grant a preliminary injunction.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The appeals court panel, made up of two judges appointed by Trump and one appointed by former President Joe Biden, ruled that the White House was likely to succeed on the merits of its case. Although the panel rejected the federal government’s argument that the courts should not even be considering the case, it wrote that any judicial review must be “highly deferential.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The panel also said Trump “likely” acted within his authority when he invoked a rarely used legal provision that allows a president to deploy federal service members if “there is a rebellion or danger of a rebellion against the authority of the Government of the United States.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_12044094\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 2000px\">\u003ca href=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2025/06/GettyImages-2218796587-scaled-e1750446347200.jpg\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-12044094\" src=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2025/06/GettyImages-2218796587-scaled-e1750446347200.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"2000\" height=\"1334\">\u003c/a>\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">The California National Guard stands guard as protesters clash with law enforcement in downtown Los Angeles at the Metropolitan Detention Center due to the immigration raids that roiled LA on Sunday, June 8, 2025 in Los Angeles. \u003ccite>(Jason Armond/Los Angeles Times via Getty Images)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>However, the appeals panel made clear that its decision only addresses whether the president had the authority to call up the troops and does not yet consider what those troops are allowed to do on the streets of L.A. And it did not address one of California’s main legal claims: that the president’s actions violate an 1878 law, known as the Posse Comitatus Act, which bars using the military for domestic law enforcement purposes.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Breyer asked lawyers for both sides to submit written arguments by Monday at noon on whether he has the authority to modify the appeals court ruling based on the Posse Comitatus Act.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Depending on what you say, because I am actually interested in what authority I have, I will decide what to do next,” Breyer said. “Maybe I’ll have a hearing, maybe I won’t — I don’t know.

Bush deployed troops at the request of then-Republican Gov. Pete Wilson and then-Democratic Mayor Tom Bradley. The riots were also far more violent, resulting in 63 deaths.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Strickland argued that deaths have been avoided in Los Angeles only because Trump sent in the military, echoing the president’s \u003ca href=\"https://truthsocial.com/@realDonaldTrump/posts/114670085083632579\">assertion\u003c/a> that the city otherwise would have burned to the ground.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Do you wait till 63 people die before you call them in?” Strickland said.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Blaming California’s sanctuary law\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>The Republicans argued that Trump’s use of military force was necessary because of California’s 2017 sanctuary state law, which has been \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/2019/04/18/714882333/federal-appeals-panel-upholds-california-sanctuary-state-law\">upheld in federal court\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Their logic goes like this: Had California police been more cooperative with Immigration and Customs Enforcement, federal agents wouldn’t have had to arrest immigrants in the streets, Californians wouldn’t have been so riled and Trump wouldn’t have had to deploy troops to protect those agents.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Under current law, local law enforcement can choose to alert federal immigration authorities about an upcoming release of an inmate if \u003ca href=\"https://calmatters.org/justice/2025/01/california-sanctuary-state/\">they are convicted of violent felonies\u003c/a>.

He dismissed arrests, such as that of a 4-year-old girl on life-saving medication in Bakersfield, as “collateral.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“When the federal agents are having to go into neighborhoods and find these violent felons to capture and report and prosecute … there are going to be collateral arrests in that, and that’s the state that Gov. Newsom and the Democratic leadership have created,” Jones told CalMatters.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Assemblymember \u003ca href=\"https://calmatters.digitaldemocracy.org/legislators/tom-lackey-10\">Tom Lackey\u003c/a>, a Palmdale Republican who served in the California Highway Patrol for 28 years, said the sanctuary law “created all of this fear and chaos.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“What we are seeing now is a situation where the supermajority has limited tools to manage immigration; creating a communication breakdown between local and federal law enforcement, and a vacuum that invites a heavier hand from Washington,” he said in a statement.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But Madrid said blaming the tension all on the state’s sanctuary law is an “extraordinarily weak” argument.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“If that were the case, this would have been a situation long before,” he said. “It is consciously deceptive in telling a very, very small part of the problem.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>While Madrid called the state’s sanctuary law a “patchwork” policy, he argued immigration is an issue entirely “on the doorstep of the federal government.” The Trump administration has missed opportunities to rein in the border, Madrid argued, noting Trump last year helped \u003ca href=\"https://www.cnn.com/2024/01/25/politics/gop-senators-angry-trump-immigration-deal\">kill a bipartisan legislative deal\u003c/a> over border security.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“What California has decided to do is to say: ‘Fine, if you are not going to control border security and … leave us as the largest border state in the country to deal with it, we are going to accommodate it. We are going to ingratiate people into the fabric of our culture, our politics and our economy,’” he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Could support for troops cost Republicans?\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Aligning with Trump has its perks. The president — the face of a growingly populist party — can galvanize Republican voters and help legislators cement their conservative base. Even as the president’s \u003ca href=\"https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/trump-administration/poll-americans-disapprove-trumps-performance-republicans-manage-splits-rcna212585\">approval rating slips among Americans\u003c/a>, Republican voters continue to show strong support for him.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But Republicans could lose ground, especially among Latino voters, over Trump’s fierce crackdown on immigration and the protests, Madrid predicted.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>While Latinos flocked toward Trump in 2024 despite the president’s promise of mass deportation, that threat is no longer “abstract” but “existential,” Madrid said. Moreover, more Americans are alarmed by Trump’s use of the military on its own people, he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“He so overplayed his hand on immigration crackdowns that it’s now about overreach and not about border security,” Madrid said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>For the record: A previous version of the story incorrectly stated that Los Angeles police officers killed Black activist Rodney King in 1992. They did not kill him but severely beat him.\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>This article was \u003ca href=\"https://calmatters.org/politics/2025/06/california-republicans-trump-military-los-angeles/\">originally published on CalMatters\u003c/a> and was republished under the \u003ca href=\"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/\">Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivatives\u003c/a> license.\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n",

Bush deployed troops at the request of then-Republican Gov. Pete Wilson and then-Democratic Mayor Tom Bradley. The riots were also far more violent, resulting in 63 deaths.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Strickland argued that deaths have been avoided in Los Angeles only because Trump sent in the military, echoing the president’s \u003ca href=\"https://truthsocial.com/@realDonaldTrump/posts/114670085083632579\">assertion\u003c/a> that the city otherwise would have burned to the ground.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Do you wait till 63 people die before you call them in?” Strickland said.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Blaming California’s sanctuary law\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>The Republicans argued that Trump’s use of military force was necessary because of California’s 2017 sanctuary state law, which has been \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/2019/04/18/714882333/federal-appeals-panel-upholds-california-sanctuary-state-law\">upheld in federal court\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Their logic goes like this: Had California police been more cooperative with Immigration and Customs Enforcement, federal agents wouldn’t have had to arrest immigrants in the streets, Californians wouldn’t have been so riled and Trump wouldn’t have had to deploy troops to protect those agents.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Under current law, local law enforcement can choose to alert federal immigration authorities about an upcoming release of an inmate if \u003ca href=\"https://calmatters.org/justice/2025/01/california-sanctuary-state/\">they are convicted of violent felonies\u003c/a>.

He dismissed arrests, such as that of a 4-year-old girl on life-saving medication in Bakersfield, as “collateral.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“When the federal agents are having to go into neighborhoods and find these violent felons to capture and report and prosecute … there are going to be collateral arrests in that, and that’s the state that Gov. Newsom and the Democratic leadership have created,” Jones told CalMatters.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Assemblymember \u003ca href=\"https://calmatters.digitaldemocracy.org/legislators/tom-lackey-10\">Tom Lackey\u003c/a>, a Palmdale Republican who served in the California Highway Patrol for 28 years, said the sanctuary law “created all of this fear and chaos.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“What we are seeing now is a situation where the supermajority has limited tools to manage immigration; creating a communication breakdown between local and federal law enforcement, and a vacuum that invites a heavier hand from Washington,” he said in a statement.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But Madrid said blaming the tension all on the state’s sanctuary law is an “extraordinarily weak” argument.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“If that were the case, this would have been a situation long before,” he said. “It is consciously deceptive in telling a very, very small part of the problem.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>While Madrid called the state’s sanctuary law a “patchwork” policy, he argued immigration is an issue entirely “on the doorstep of the federal government.” The Trump administration has missed opportunities to rein in the border, Madrid argued, noting Trump last year helped \u003ca href=\"https://www.cnn.com/2024/01/25/politics/gop-senators-angry-trump-immigration-deal\">kill a bipartisan legislative deal\u003c/a> over border security.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“What California has decided to do is to say: ‘Fine, if you are not going to control border security and … leave us as the largest border state in the country to deal with it, we are going to accommodate it. We are going to ingratiate people into the fabric of our culture, our politics and our economy,’” he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Could support for troops cost Republicans?\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Aligning with Trump has its perks. The president — the face of a growingly populist party — can galvanize Republican voters and help legislators cement their conservative base. Even as the president’s \u003ca href=\"https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/trump-administration/poll-americans-disapprove-trumps-performance-republicans-manage-splits-rcna212585\">approval rating slips among Americans\u003c/a>, Republican voters continue to show strong support for him.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But Republicans could lose ground, especially among Latino voters, over Trump’s fierce crackdown on immigration and the protests, Madrid predicted.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>While Latinos flocked toward Trump in 2024 despite the president’s promise of mass deportation, that threat is no longer “abstract” but “existential,” Madrid said. Moreover, more Americans are alarmed by Trump’s use of the military on its own people, he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“He so overplayed his hand on immigration crackdowns that it’s now about overreach and not about border security,” Madrid said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>For the record: A previous version of the story incorrectly stated that Los Angeles police officers killed Black activist Rodney King in 1992.

The measure passed the state Senate earlier this month and will get its first Assembly committee hearing in early July.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The group’s plan is the latest twist in a process that began early last year, when Wiener introduced \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11988365/a-bill-to-save-bay-area-transit-from-fiscal-disaster-is-dead-at-least-for-now\">an ambitious bill\u003c/a> that would have authorized a nine-county vote and raised as much as $1.5 billion a year for transit and other regional transportation needs.
