A federal appeals court has issued a temporary stay in a ruling handed down just hours earlier on June 12, essentially restoring President Donald Trump’s control of the California National Guard, which he has temporarily placed under his command amid protests and riots in Los Angeles.
The order by the Ninth U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals comes just hours after U.S. District Judge Charles Breyer ordered the administration to return control of the California National Guard to Gov. Gavin Newsom.
