PORTLAND, Ore. (AP) — A federal judge in Oregon ruled Friday that President Donald Trump’s administration failed to meet the legal requirements for deploying the National Guard to Portland after the city and state sued in September to block the deployment.

The ruling from U.S. District Court Judge Karin Immergut, a Trump appointee, followed a three-day trial last week in which both sides argued over whether protests at the city’s U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement building met the conditions for using the military domestically under federal law.

The administration said the troops were needed to protect federal personnel and property in a city that Trump described as “war ravaged” with “fires all over the place.”

In a 106-page opinion, Immergut found that even though the president is entitled to “great deference” in his decision on whether to call up the Guard, he did not have a legal basis for doing so because he did not establish that there was a rebellion or danger of rebellion, or that he was unable to enforce the law with regular forces.

As we've said multiple times, there is nothing going on in Portland but rain and... more rain.

The only times people act up is when the orange cancer tries to tramp all over our rights! And that clown only does it when the last thing he saw on TV was some ball of feces spreading lies on Fox Entertainment.

Every person they detained should be immediately released and receive compensation for being illegally detained, since they were illegally deployed.

I hope they bring this argument to every other city where they're trying this.
