by this effort to end run or just violate blatantly her order from yesterday.

I don't.

And look, on August 8th, Trump deployed 300 National Guard for 90 days longer in Los Angeles, arguing that they are necessary and essential to enforce the federal laws and to keep people safe.

And then today he's like, nah, maybe I'll send all of them to Portland.

They don't need to be in LA.

So it completely undercuts his position in our case in LA.

And we're gonna make that known to the court that these Federalized National Guard are so essential and so necessary to keep the peace and keep public safety that they were all sent away a thousand miles away to another city.

You were given a gift, AG Bonta.

I mean, it is deplorable what happened, and we are going to let the court know how it impacts the case that we have.

I thought she did a great job and tons of credit to her.

I'm sure she's, I hope she's not, I hope this isn't true, gonna get political pressure from the right, from MAGA world and from Trump and his people.

But she is a true public servant who believes in the law, who knows what law enforcement is, has worked with it and for it and is not gonna get pulled into these silly ideological fights and these,

You know, depictions of what's happening on the ground that are only a figment of the imagination of Donald Trump that he posts on Truth Social when he says it's war-torn.

I mean, she pointed out very specifically that Trump's determination to deploy the Guard based on the facts on the ground was untethered from the truth.

Untethered to reality.

I don't think she thought she was divested of jurisdiction, though she did ask this question, what if the appeal to the Ninth Circuit on yesterday's TRO, the first TRO is granted and the TRO is overturned, would that affect today's TRO, should she issue one?

She was kind of thinking out loud and asking the attorneys their input.

And I think that the attorneys from California and Oregon,

made it very clear that today's a separate TRO on a separate issue with a separate movement of National Guard.

And whatever the court does in the first TRO shouldn't affect the TRO today.
