President remains barred from deploying national guard as appeals court agrees to ‘en banc’ rehearing of case

The Trump administration remains barred from deploying the national guard in Portland, Oregon, following a federal appeals court ruling.

The ninth circuit court of appeals agreed on Tuesday that it would rehear a case over the president’s authority with a broader court of 11 judges. The appeals court also vacated a ruling from a three-judge panel last week that sided with the Trump administration.

The order is the latest development in a long legal saga over whether Donald Trump has the authority and justification to deploy national guard forces in Portland. The Oregon city has had about 200 federalized guard members in limbo since late September when Trump attempted to mobilize in response to months of protests there.

    At this point I don’t even care. I’m so sick of having to deal with this because too May regards were so gung ho hurting others only to have them finally see the light when it snagged them I’m going to do the absolute MINIMUM to oppose, which is show up and vote. No cash to candidates, no protests, nothing else - I didn’t break it and I’m tired of having to clean up after the children who did.

    Actually, I take that back - I’ll throw $50 to any candidate that swears to inflict this shit on MAGAts if they win. But they really need to make ‘em hurt - any talk of reconciliation and I’ll skip voting for that position altogether, not that I’m even sure it matters at this point.
