From Fox News:
A federal judge on Friday ruled that the Trump administration’s attempt to deploy National Guard troops to Portland, Oregon, was unconstitutional.
On Sunday, U.S. District Court Judge Karin Immergut, a Trump appointee, temporarily extended an order blocking the administration from deploying troops to The Rose City, saying the government had failed to justify the move.
…
Friday’s 106-page ruling makes the order permanent.
Fox notes that this ruling follows a three-day trial over whether protests and riots outside of the ICE building in Portland warranted the deployment of the National Guard. While the Trump administration said the troops were necessary to protect federal personnel and property, Immergut disagreed.
Immergut concluded that President Trump “did not have lawful basis to federalize the National Guard.” She wrote that his order violated the 10th Amendment, “which ‘reserves to the States’ any powers not expressly delegated to the federal government in the Constitution.”
Though the block on deployment is effectively permanent, the administration can appeal the decision. Fox notes that President Trump has ran into similar trouble elsewhere as well, as a different judge also blocked the deployment of National Guard troops to Chicago.
As our President continues to crack down on crime and defend ICE agents, let’s pray for him and his administration!

Heavenly Father, we thank You that You are the God of peace, please speak. Psalm 119:133 Establish my footsteps in Your word, and do not let any iniquity have dominion over me. For those in authority whom abdicate their responsibility of preserving peace, whom permit chaos, harm and destruction, let them be removed from positions of authority. Instead LORD, renew in each of us a clean heart and a right spirit thereby establishing true leadership. In Jesus’ mighty name. Amen.
Father, guide our land’s justices to do right. May they desire to see federal people and property protected from those who choose to destroy it. May this order be vacated.
release your spirit, Lord. release the crooked politicians from their demonically influenced thinking. restore your influence in their minds. Job 33:15 says you will seal your instructions in their hearts while they are sleeping! Do it , Lord! Do it Lord! save your people! may the revival released from Chaie Kirk’s death grow, expand, and change hearts!
Judge immergut needs to actually read our Constitution to see that she has absolutely no authority over the Executive branch for anything, especially not when and where to deploy the National Guard. FATHER GOD I bind every ruling from these bogus judges. Speak to the Supreme Court to stop once and for all these obstructionist judges whose only objective is to
stop President Trump from his job that Americans voted him to do. I decree that these judges will be prosecuted for obstructing President Trump by YOUR Heavenly Court in JESUS MIGHTY NAME! Amen!
