White House strongly rebukes federal judge over Portland unrest court order on troop deployments
The White House rebuked a federal judge for blocking troop deployments to Oregon amidst Portland unrest, calling the order 'egregious'. The administration had previously attempted to deploy National Guard troops twice in October but was halted by the court's intervention.
The White House condemned a federal judge's ruling blocking the deployment of National Guard troops to Portland, Oregon amid unrest, calling it an 'egregious' order that undermines public safety and contradicts the administration's efforts to quell violence. The move comes after two previous attempts by the Trump administration were halted by the same court. President Donald Trump has long been a vocal supporter of deploying troops in such situations, but this latest block is seen as another hurdle for his policies. The ruling allows protesters to continue marching under current conditions.
