A US judge has found President Donald Trump unlawfully ordered National Guard troops to Portland, Oregon in a federal ruling.⁣ ⁣ The US District Judge Karin Immergut, a Trump appointee, said the administration had no lawful basis to claim that there was a rebellion in Portland or that the government was unable to enforce federal law due to the protests.⁣ ⁣ "The occasional interference to federal officers has been minimal, and there is no evidence that these small-scale protests have significantly impeded the execution of any immigration laws," she said in her 106-page opinion and order.⁣ ⁣ It’s the first ruling to permanently block Trump's use of military force to quash protests against immigration authorities. ⁣ ⁣ White House spokeswoman Abigail Jackson said in a statement Friday that Trump had exercised his lawful authority to protect federal officers.⁣ ⁣ The Trump administration is likely to appeal and the case could ultimately reach the Supreme Court.⁣ ⁣ #Portland #US #FederalJudge...
