Pentagon says it is deploying California National Guard to Portland

President Trump sent 200 California National Guard troops to Portland after a judge blocked Oregon’s deployment, amid ongoing protests near federal facilities, officials said.

  • On Sunday, the Pentagon reassigned about 200 federalized California National Guard members, already activated under Title 10 from Los Angeles, to Portland, Oregon.
  • A Trump-appointed U.S. District Judge Karin Immergut on Saturday temporarily barred deploying Oregon National Guard troops to Portland, citing protests had not escalated to rebellion or justified military intrusion.
  • On Saturday night, 101 arriving members and 99 more en route, California Gov. Gavin Newsom said about 300 guard members were being sent.
  • State and city leaders announced California Gov. Gavin Newsom vowed legal action and said, 'The commander-in-chief is using the US military as a political weapon against American citizens,' seeking an emergency hearing Monday.
  • Oregon Attorney General Dan Rayfield said, 'This country has a longstanding and foundational tradition of resistance to government overreach,' criticizing the deployment as circumventing the judge's order.
