Ah, the classic "we know something you don't know" #scoop. 🎤 #NBC drops a bombshell that #Iran did more than rearrange the lawn chairs at U.S. bases, but manages to provide less detail than a toddler's bedtime story. 📖 Also, thanks for the browser upgrade reminder—I'll totally get right on that. 🤦♂️

“Like other mayors across the country, I have not asked for -– & do not need -– federal intervention,” #Portland mayor, Keith Wilson, said in a statement after #Trump’s threat. Wilson said his city had protected #FreedomOfExpression while “addressing occasional violence & property destruction.” [cause shit happens]

Earlier in September, #Trump had described living in Portland [like he’d know] as “like living in hell” & said he was considering sending in federal #troops, as he has recently threatened to do to combat crime in other cities, including #Chicago & #Baltimore.

#Trump, in comments Thursday in the Oval Office, suggested some kind of operation was in the works.
“We’re going to get out there & we’re going to do a pretty big number on those people in #Portland,” he said, describing them as “professional agitators & anarchists.”

This is the reason why #Trump labeled #Antifa a #terrorist organization. So he could send #military into #BlueCities where there are #protests. Because it is amorphous, he can call whatever he wants “Antifa” it’s not like #SCOTUS will stop him.

In its most distilled form, that’s the conclusion of Charles Breyer, the federal judge overseeing a suit brought by #California Governor Gavin Newsom over the #Trump administration’s deployment of National Guardsmen & #Marines in & around #LosAngeles in June. In a scathing opinion delivered today, Breyer said that the administration had acted illegally.

A federal judge’s scathing opinion explains why Trump’s deployment of #troops to #California was more than just an overreach.
The #Trump administration broke the #law. Its officials knew they were breaking the law. And they’ll likely try to do so again.

L.A. Ruling Complicates Trump’s Threats to Send Troops to More Cities
As Democratic cities brace for possible military deployments, Democratic governors see in a lower-court ruling the potential for legal protections.
Listen to this article · 7:42 min Learn more Members of the California National Guard outside the Edward R. Roybal Federal Building in Los Angeles in June.Credit…Philip Cheung for The New York TimesBy Charlie Savage, Reporting from Washington, D.C., Sept. 2, 2025Updated 4:16 p.m. ET
A federal judge’s ruling that President Trump has been using troops illegally to perform law enforcement functions in Los Angeles will — if it stands — pose impediments to any plans Mr. Trump may have for sending the military into the streets of other cities, like Chicago.Mr. Trump has made those threats in the context of his anti-crime operation in Washington, D.C., which has involved both civilian federal agents and National Guard troops under federal control. But because the District of Columbia is not a state, the federal government has greater latitude to use the Guard there.
The Posse Comitatus Act, enacted in 1878, makes it illegal to use federal troops for domestic policing under normal circumstances. So to keep from running afoul of that law, Mr. Trump would need a legal rationale for deploying troops to cities like Chicago.
One potential model for Mr. Trump might be the reasoning his administration offered for sending troops to Los Angeles over the summer, ostensibly to protect federal agents and facilities. But on Tuesday, Judge Charles Breyer of the Federal District Court in San Francisco held that the administration has been using those troops too expansively.
The judge barred the federal government from using troops anywhere in California to engage in “arrests, apprehensions, searches, seizures, security patrols, traffic control, crowd control, riot control, evidence collection, interrogation, or acting as informants.”
Speaking to reporters later on Tuesday, Mr. Trump called Judge Breyer a “radical left judge.” The judge’s order is scheduled to take effect Sept. 12, giving the Trump administration time to appeal.
There are reasons for caution at this stage. An appeals court has already overturned an earlier decision by Judge Breyer, in which he tried to strike down Mr. Trump’s assertion of federal control of California National Guard troops over the objections of the state’s governor, Gavin Newsom.
But if other courts adopt Judge Breyer’s reasoning, it would limit Mr. Trump’s ability to use the operation in Los Angeles as a precedent to justify deploying federal troops into other cities to fight crime.
Democratic governors far from California said on Tuesday that the judge’s ruling was a victory for them as well.
“This ruling confirms what the American people already knew — this deployment was never about public safety,” said Gov. Maura Healey of Massachusetts, who has spoken out against Mr. Trump’s domestic use of the military. “It was yet another political stunt from President Trump intended to intimidate and punish anyone who disagrees with him.”
