What happened when Trump tried to federalize the National Guard for Portland?

Ben Meiselas 0:45
Donald Trump got a rude awakening late Sunday night as his military invasion of Portland, Oregon, and Chicago, Illinois hit a major roadblock. The Trump-appointed judge who ruled against him the previous day on Saturday when he tried to activate the Oregon National Guard troops to invade Portland ruled against Donald Trump again when it was uncovered that Donald Trump after getting a restraining order against him and his regime on Saturday from using Oregon National Guard troops, Donald Trump called up the California National Guard to use California National Guard troops to now invade Portland, Oregon. And that was something that Donald Trump was also doing in Chicago, Illinois, also using Texas National Guard troops to invade Chicago, Illinois.

Governor J.B. Pritzker called that out earlier in the day. Now, this Trump-appointed judge in Portland, Oregon, late Sunday night issued yet another restraining order against Donald Trump. She let Donald Trump's DOJ lawyer, who had to be at this late night court appearance. She let him have it and say, you're an officer of the court. How could you possibly construe the order that I issued on Saturday blocking the National Guard from invading Portland to not cover other states? National Guard, other than the Oregon National Guard, to which Donald Trump's DOJ lawyer said, I don't know. I don't do policy. That's above my pay grade. And the judge says, I'm issuing an order right away, and I'm making it very clear.

You are not to invade this city. with the United States military. Do you understand you are not to federalize the national guard in the city from any state? Do you understand? Make sure the regime understands. And this was a Trump appointed judge from 2019. Now, Governor J.B. Pritzker is likely going to be bringing a similar lawsuit. And we see what happened in Portland, Oregon. I think we'll see a federal judge shortly do the same thing in Illinois. And Governor Pritzker said, look, Donald Trump just called up the Texas National Guard to invade Chicago, Illinois. Now, Governor Abbott of Texas, he was giddy. He said, we can't can't wait to invade Chicago. We're standing by for those orders. We've activated the Texas National Guard and we are going into blue states and blue cities at your direction.
Ben Meiselas 3:11
No one stronger than the Texas National Guard. Hey, Governor Abbott, how about you deal with your own state like you're failing electric grid? Maybe you want to deal with that. Maybe the fact that Texas is a state that takes far more than it gives the federal government. You see, California gives the federal government $85 billion more than it takes. But Texas, like most red states, is a taker state. It takes $75 billion from the federal government in services and grants and all of these things more than it actually gives to the federal government. Doesn't that just sum up red states and red cities for you right there? Just so utterly hypocritical. And by the way, There are still dead children missing from the flash floods that happened a few months back that the red cities and red counties completely botched.

That FEMA led by Kristi Noem and some random guy that Kristi Noem's side guy, Corey Lewandowski, brought in who we didn't even know who this guy is, who doesn't have any federal emergency management history. history at all like who is this guy remember they shut down the urban search and rescue and they didn't activate it on time they shut down the call centers they were literally still missing dead children right now in the state of texas and they're focused on sending the national guard troops into chicago illinois how utterly pathetic is that so yeah the trump appointed judge issued that scathing order late Sunday night, another restraining order against the Trump regime. You are to allow no national guard troops from any state to invade Portland, Oregon.
