President Donald Trump ordered the deployment of 300 United States — National Guard (United States) members to United States — Oregon, despite a federal judge, Karin Immergut, temporarily blocking a similar plan for the United States — Oregon National Guard. California Governor Gavin Newsom and United States — Oregon Governor Tina Kotek condemned the move, with Newsom pledging to fight it in court, calling it a 'breathtaking abuse of the law and power.' Kotek stated that 101 United States — National Guard (United States) members had already arrived without official notification, suggesting the action was intended to circumvent the judge's ruling. The deployment is in response to protests at the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement building in Portland, which Donald Trump characterized as a 'war zone.' Judge Karin Immergut ruled that the protests did not justify federalized forces and could harm United States — Oregon's state sovereignty. Donald Trump has also authorized the deployment of United States — National Guard (United States) troops to United States — Chicago, facing similar opposition from Governor JB Pritzker.
