A federal judge on Tuesday afternoon declined Governor Newsom’s request for an ex parte Temporary Restraining Order against President Trump.
California Governor Gavin Newsom on Tuesday requested an ex parte Temporary Restraining Order (TRO) against President Trump for deploying National Guard Troops to downtown Los Angeles.
Thousands of anti-ICE rioters surrounded a federal facility in downtown Los Angeles on Monday.
About 700 US Marines were mobilized in response to the violent Los Angeles riots.
This is after Trump deputized 2,000 National Guard Troops to help quell the riots.
On Monday, Newsom said he is suing Trump for violating the Constitution.
NEW: We are suing Donald Trump.
This is a manufactured crisis. He is creating fear and terror to take over a state militia and violate the U.S. constitution.
The illegal order he signed could allow him to send the military into ANY STATE HE WISHES.
Every governor — red or…

On Tuesday Newsom told the Court he needed the TRO by 1 PM PST today.
“They must be stopped immediately,” Newsom said in his request for an emergency restraining order.
Later Tuesday, Judge Charles Breyer, (brother of retired SCOTUS Breyer), a Clinton appointee, denied Newsom’s request for an immediate restraining order but set a Thursday hearing.
