Federal Judge Blocks Trump Admin From Sending Troops to Portland

More judicial tyranny. Apparently Portland isn’t war ravaged enough. “Overall, the protests were small and uneventful.” This is Portland we are talking about.

Reporter Andy Ngo: Leftists and Democrats are celebrating that a federal judge issued a restraining order stopping the President from mobilizing the National Guard in Portland.

repeatedly indicate they had no ability or resources to respond to attacks in the area.

“[E]ven if these folks were still at ICE or nearby, we would not be able to address the call or make an arrest with the resources we have,” wrote Sgt. John Edwards on Sept. 20.

Federal judge blocks Trump admin from sending troops to Portland — as feds unleash mace and tear gas on anti-ICE agitators

By Anna Young, NY Post, Oct. 4, 2025:

A federal judge in Oregon temporarily blocked the Trump administration’s plan to deploy hundreds of National Guard troops to Portland — the same day federal agents unleashed tear gas and mace on anti-ICE agitators after more than 100 straight days of unrest.

US District Judge Karin Immergut, a Trump nominee, ruled Saturday that deploying active-duty troops to secure the “war ravaged” Oregon city would violate the US Constitution and federal law barring military involvement in domestic law enforcement.

“The relationship between the federal government and the states, between the military and domestic law enforcement, and the balance of powers between the executive, legislative and judicial branches of government,” she wrote in her ruling.

“Whether we choose to follow what the Constitution mandates with respect to these three relationships goes to the heart of what it means to live under the rule of law in the United States.”

In her ruling, Karin pointed out that scores of demonstrations held outside a south Portland immigration facility were not notably violent or disruptive in the days and weeks before Trump’s order.

“Overall, the protests were small and uneventful,” she wrote.

“The President’s determination was simply untethered to the facts.”

The temporary restraining order blocking Trump’s move will expire in 14 days.

The White House disputed the ruling, insisting the president would be “vindicated” by a higher court.

“President Trump exercised his lawful authority to protect federal assets and personnel in Portland following violent riots and attacks on law enforcement — we expect to be vindicated by a higher court,” White House spokeswoman Abigail Jackson told The Post.

Last week, the commander in chief announced plans to send 200 National Guard troops to Portland to support immigration authorities and fend off “domestic terrorists” using “full force, if necessary.”

He then ordered Secretary of War Pete Hegseth to unleash “all necessary troops.”

State officials immediately sued to block the president from deploying troops – which Trump has already sent to Democratic-run cities where protests have erupted, including Los Angeles, Washington, DC, Chicago and Memphis.
