US appeals court allows Trump control of National Guard in LA

A US appeals court rules that US President Donald Trump can continue control of National Guard troops in Los Angeles, over the objections of California Governor Gavin Newsom.

In a unanimous 38-page ruling, the three-judge panel says Trump’s “failure to issue the federalization order directly ‘through’ the Governor of California does not limit his otherwise lawful authority to call up the National Guard.”
