Federal judges are proving, over and over again, that the pen (the judicial pen) is mightier than the sword.Glenn discusses the temporary restraining order issued by Judge Karin Immergut, a Trump appointee, prohibiting Trump from federalizing the Oregon National Guard and sending them into Portland. And, when Trump tried to violate the court's order by sending the California National Guard or the Texas National Guard to Portland, Judge Immergut issued a second restraining order, in the middle of the night, prohibiting those deployments as well.For nightly live Law Talks, please join Glenn on Substack: glennkirschner.substack.comIf you're interested in supporting our all-volunteer efforts, you can become a Team Justice patron at: / glennkirschner If you'd like to support Glenn and buy Team Justice and Justice Matters merchandise visit:https://shop.spreadshirt.com/glennkir...Check out Glenn's website at https://glennkirschner.com/Follow Glenn on:Threads: https://www.threads.net/glennkirschner2Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/glennkirschner2Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/glennkirsch...Bluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/glennkirschn...TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/glennkirschner2See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Over the weekend, a federal judge blocked President Trump from deploying the National Guard in Portland. The judge blocked Trump from deploying the California National Guard to Oregon, too. Interestingly, the ruling cited Trump's own tweet, which described Portland as “war ravaged,” in determining that he does not have unlimited authority to wildly invent facts on the ground wholesale as a pretext to justify any use of the military he wants. “The President's determination was simply untethered to the facts,” this Trump-appointed judge declared. “This is a nation of Constitutional law, not martial law.” In short, Trump's gale-force bad faith worked against him. We talked to Oregon's Attorney General Dan Rayfield, who explains the ruling, details how Trump's lawless words and threats are undermining his own case, examines the larger stakes of this moment, and looks ahead to what's next.

Today's Headlines: President Trump's creeping authoritarianism tour continues. The White House ordered 300 Illinois National Guard troops federalized to “protect federal assets” during ongoing ICE raids in Chicago — even though a federal judge (a Trump appointee, no less) just blocked a similar deployment in Portland for being, quote, “untethered to the facts.” Meanwhile, California Governor Gavin Newsom is suing over Trump sending his state's Guard to Portland, telling him to get his own troops. Those troops, by the way, are backing ICE's new “Operation Midway Blitz,” a dystopian raid that saw helicopters, grenades, and tear gas used on a Chicago apartment building at 1am, and the administration has since pressured Apple and Google to remove apps that warn users of ICE activity — both complied within hours. In other weird Trump administration things, the Treasury Department is reportedly considering minting a $1 coin featuring Trump's face and the slogan “Fight Fight Fight” for the U.S.'s 250th anniversary, while the longtime director of the Eisenhower Presidential Library was ousted after refusing to hand over a historic sword for Trump to gift to King Charles (yes, really). In South Carolina, a state judge and her husband barely escaped a massive house fire that's now under investigation. Abroad, Trump says a Gaza ceasefire deal is “days away,” despite Netanyahu reportedly responding to him with classic Bibi pessimism. Over 450 activists, including Greta Thunberg, were detained after the Israeli navy intercepted the “Global Sumud Flotilla,” with reports of abuse in detention. Also, Sean “Diddy” Combs was sentenced to just over four years in prison on prostitution-related charges — and apparently had speaking gigs lined up for the same week. And finally,, the government remains shut down while Speaker Mike Johnson continues to block the swearing-in of congresswoman-elect Adelita Grijalva.

Here are 3 big things you need to know— One — Secretary of State Marco Rubio says speed is of the essence for a deal to end the war in Gaza. Appearing on ABC's "This Week", Rubio said this is not something that can continue to drag out. His comments come as President Trump is sending special envoys to the Middle East to try to seal his hostage release deal. Both Israel and Hamas have indicated support for the proposal, but with conditions that still need to be negotiated. Two --- A federal judge is stopping the Trump administration from sending members of the National Guard to the streets of Portland, Oregon. U.S. District Judge Karin Immergut granted the motion for a temporary restraining order filed by the state of California on Sunday night. The motion stopped the deployment of up to 300 members of the California National Guard to Portland. No word on how that might affect plans to send the National Guard to Chicago. And number three --- The new Michigan state budget cuts 18-hundred full-time jobs, but Governor Gretchen Whitmer says no layoffs will happen. Most of the job cuts are from Michigan State Police, the Michigan Department of Corrections, and Michigan Department of Health and Human Services. The openings likely will come from attrition and eliminating current unfilled roles.

Another whirlwind week just unfolded in America's courtrooms, and once again, the spotlight was firmly fixed on Donald Trump. It's Friday, September 26, 2025, and the cascade of legal drama surrounding the former president has hardly paused for breath. Early this week, a Supreme Court order commanded headlines. On September 22, the justices agreed to hear the Trump v. Slaughter case—a direct result of Trump's effort to immediately dismiss a member of the Federal Trade Commission. The nation's highest court, led by Chief Justice John Roberts, granted Trump's stay, effectively pausing a lower court's block on the firing and fast-tracking the question: do federal laws that protect FTC members from removal by the president violate the separation of powers? The Supreme Court set the stage for arguments to happen in December, signaling a high-stakes showdown. Notably, Justice Elena Kagan issued a firm dissent, joined by Justices Sonia Sotomayor and Ketanji Brown Jackson, warning of the potential consequences for independent federal agencies. The outcome could reshape presidential powers for years to come.Simultaneously, on the West Coast, California's legal battle with Trump's administration took a dramatic turn. Governor Gavin Newsom, alongside the State of California, is challenging Trump and Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth over the federalization of the California National Guard—sparked by Trump's June executive orders. The case, Newsom v. Trump, has captivated legal observers. Earlier this month, Judge Charles R. Breyer delivered a major opinion granting injunctive relief to California, temporarily blocking the federalization pending further proceedings. The fight is far from over, with hearings drawing crowds—some tuning in via restricted remote feeds as the courtroom swelled with attorneys and journalists. The question at the heart of the case? Whether Trump's maneuver to take control of state military resources overstepped constitutional bounds.The sheer scope of litigation entangling Trump is staggering. According to the Trump Administration Litigation Tracker from Lawfare, nearly three hundred active cases are currently challenging executive orders and actions issued during his administration. These range from national security measures to disputes over the deployment of the National Guard, echoing and amplifying the themes now playing out in federal courts from Washington, D.C., to California. Even as the Supreme Court's decision in Trump v. Slaughter looms, dozens of other lawsuits continue to churn in the lower courts, with attorneys filing briefs, seeking emergency stays, and pressing for quick resolutions.Unrelenting legal pressure, contentious constitutional questions, and a judiciary now caught in the crossfire—Donald Trump's legal saga keeps the nation in suspense.

After a full trial, a federal judge in California ruled that Trump grabbing control of the California National Guard and his deployment of the military to the streets of Los Angeles was illegal, and he also ordered him to stop violating the Posse Comitatus Act, a federal law that prohibits the military from enforcing civilian law.As Politico reported, "Judge rules Trump can't act as national police chief."

I'm tuning in just after one of the most dramatic stretches in recent American political history, as the legal storm surrounding former President Donald Trump's court trials hits new highs. Let's jump right in—the courtroom battles featuring Trump have been exploding across national headlines, from Washington D.C. to California and beyond.Over the past few days, the nation's attention has been gripped by a federal judge's ruling out in California. California Attorney General Rob Bonta confirmed that President Trump's deployment of federalized California National Guard troops and Marines for civilian law enforcement in Los Angeles was in violation of the Posse Comitatus Act, that foundational law limiting the military's role on our soil. According to Bonta, the District Court not only found Trump's actions unlawful, but also permanently blocked the administration from engaging in similar behavior in future, whether for arrests, riot control, or evidence gathering. The judge's order is stayed only until September 12th, making this a pivotal moment for executive reach and civil liberties.Meanwhile, the legal calendars covering Trump's trials have become almost as tangled as the cases themselves. After the U.S. Supreme Court weighed in on Trump's presidential immunity claims in early August, the D.C. Circuit Court handed jurisdiction back to Judge Tanya Chutkan. However, the most recent scheduling order—coming just this week—has paused all pretrial deadlines until late October, essentially putting everything on hold in the Washington election subversion case. With time ticking away under the Speedy Trial Act, legal experts say this delay throws uncertainty over the proceedings, especially as appeals and procedural wrangling continue.It's not just criminal matters. On the civil side, Trump's legal team is still grappling with the fallout from previous verdicts, notably those involving E. Jean Carroll's defamation suits. The appeals are underway at the Second Circuit, but movement has slowed as defense attorneys look for openings in the appeals process. These cases, filed back in 2020 and 2022, have been persistent thorns in Trump's side, flaring up anew with each ruling.Also in the mix is the Democratic National Committee's lawsuit, challenging Trump's use of Executive Order 14215 to sway the Federal Election Commission. The U.S. District Court in D.C. dismissed the challenge earlier this summer, citing a lack of concrete injury. Still, with the FEC's independence on the line, insiders expect the issue to resurface as the end of election season nears.With Trump back in office, there's no shortage of Supreme Court petitions—over four dozen right now—ranging from immigration to telemarketing, tax laws, and challenges to federal policy moves dating back years. The administration is wielding the emergency docket as a powerful tool, regularly pressing to overturn lower court decisions and keep executive power front and center.So, as the clock moves forward, these cases are more than just legal drama—they're signposts of where America's institutions stand and how the rule of law will look in a rapidly shifting political landscape.

In this episode of STRAT with retired Marine Intelligence Officer Hal Kempfer, we examine the recent federal court decision in California that found the Trump Administration violated the Posse Comitatus Act of 1878 by deploying U.S. military forces for law enforcement duties. We break down what the Act actually says, why it exists, and how its restrictions have been shaped by modern exceptions including nuclear, counterdrug, and weapons of mass destruction emergencies. We also look at the Insurrection Act of 1807, the historical precedents for military involvement in domestic affairs, and the thirty times it has been invoked throughout American history. The ruling by Judge Charles Breyer against the Trump Administration is analyzed in detail, including its implications for federal versus state authority, national security, and constitutional separation of powers. Finally, we explore whether the 9th Circuit Court of Appeals or the Supreme Court could reverse this ruling—and what that means for future presidential authority.Takeaways:The Posse Comitatus Act of 1878 restricts federal military involvement in civilian law enforcement.Modern exceptions include emergencies involving nuclear material, counterdrug missions, and WMD threats.In 2021, the Act was formally extended to cover all military branches, including the Navy and Marine Corps.The Insurrection Act of 1807 provides a major exception, invoked 30 times in U.S. history.Past uses of the Insurrection Act include Little Rock school desegregation, Selma marches, and the 1992 Los Angeles riots.Judge Charles Breyer ruled that Trump's use of Marines and the California National Guard in Los Angeles violated the law.The ruling blocks federal use of troops for policing without congressional authorization.The 9th Circuit Court and Supreme Court may ultimately decide the scope of presidential authority.#STRATPodcast #HalKempfer #MutualBroadcastingSystem #StrategicRiskAnalysis #PosseComitatus #InsurrectionAct #MilitaryLaw #CivilLiberties #NationalSecurity #FederalCourt #PresidentialPower #SeparationOfPowers #RuleOfLaw #MilitaryHistory #ConstitutionalLaw #FederalVsState #Marines #SupremeCourt #NinthCircuit #PublicPolicy
President Trump says he will send troops to Chicago and defends his deployment of the California National Guard to Los Angeles despite a ruling today that found the deployment to be illegal. Congress faces a tight deadline to avert a government shutdown as legislators return to Capitol Hill. NBC News National Political Correspondent Steve Kornacki joins Meet the Press NOW to discuss key races this November.
A federal judge in California has ruled that the Trump administration unlawfully used Marines and National Guard troops in Los Angeles. In the order, U.S. District Judge Charles Breyer said the federal government couldn't use the California National Guard or any military troops deployed in the state to engage in arrests, apprehensions, crowd control, and other activities.Congress is back in session on Tuesday with a lot on the lawmakers' plates. Government funding is set to expire on Sept. 30 under a stopgap spending bill approved by Congress in March. Both chambers will need to pass—and President Donald Trump to sign—a total of 12 funding bills to avert a complete or partial government shutdown. So far, the Senate has passed an initial draft of three of these, while the House has passed just two. Only one, a bill to fund military construction, has passed both chambers.

As global crises and US domestic reckonings intensify, the New York Community Commission on Reparations Remedies met this week at the Schomburg Center for Research in Black Culture, drawing attention to the urgent need to reimagine repair—not merely as restitution, but as a process of decolonization and rehumanization in a fractured United States and world. Reparations is not simply (or even primarily) about monetary compensation, but about dismantling systems of harm and colonization that still define the American state and the world system out of which it emerged and which it anchors.Literal and figurative disasters persist around the globe. Forces in the US intensify the ongoing Cold Civil War—fractured by ideological extremism, geopolitical escalations like Israel's bombing of Iran and China's projection of its Navy Aircraft Carriers into the Pacific, and performative nationalism seen in spectacles like the Trump Army Parade in Washington, DC, among others. But resistance rises. Federal District Court Judge Charles Breyer's ruling against the federalization of the California National Guard by the Trump Administration and thousands of “No More Kings” rallies across the country present formal and organic resistance in a darkening US political landscape. The 100th anniversary of the Schomburg Center gives us a moments to reinforce the fact that we must search our collective memory in order to strengthen our vision of a different country and make better decisions for how to engage politically.JOIN KNARRATIVE: https://www.knarrative.com it's the only way to get into #Knubia, where these classes areheld live with a live chat.To shop Go to:TheGlobalMajorityMore from us:Knarrative Twitter: https://twitter.com/knarrative_Knarrative Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/knarrative/In Class with Carr Twitter: https://twitter.com/inclasswithcarrSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
California Attorney General Rob Bonta has filed a spate of lawsuits against the Trump administration, including challenges to mass terminations of federal employees, the sharing of Medicaid data with immigration authorities and the federal government's takeover of the California National Guard. His office is also involved in lawsuits related to public health funding cuts and stalled clean energy projects. We'll talk to the state's top prosecutor about what's at stake in the cases and what it's been like to fight a president he says has an “endless desire to seize more power.” Guests: Rob Bonta, California Attorney General Learn more about your ad choices.

President Trump publicly released tariff letters to around a dozen countries—including Japan, South Korea, Thailand, and Indonesia—warning they'll face import taxes of at least 25% starting August 1 unless they finalize new trade deals. Meanwhile, a California National Guard deployment to an empty park in LA drew backlash as a political stunt, while Customs and Border Protection issued a call for advanced surveillance tech to analyze seized digital devices. Cybersecurity experts raised alarms over Scattered Spider, a hacker group targeting U.S. infrastructure using phishing and impersonation tactics. The DOJ and FBI released a memo denying any Epstein “client list” or foul play in his prison death—despite past contradictions—including new (but suspect) footage. Physician groups are suing HHS Secretary RFK Jr. over new federal COVID vaccine recommendations, and the Trump administration says a U.S.-friendly version of TikTok is on track to launch September 5 as part of a deal to avoid a full ban.

As a result of a new ruling by a California appeals court, the people's First Amendment rights to free speech and assembly suffered a setback. The rule of law suffered a setback. Justice suffered a setback.The 9th Circuit Court of Appeals left a stay in place, blocking the trial court's order that Trump must turn control of the California National Guard back to Governor Gavin Newsom.Fortunately, the ruling is a temporary/interim ruling and the case is far from over.Glenn discusses some of the unfortunate aspects of this ruling, including how Trump gets to create chaos and confusion in California and then uses that chaos as a pretext to order the military into the streets of California. No court should endorse such a transparent ruse and abuse of power.If you're interested in supporting our all-volunteer efforts, you can become a Team Justice patron at: / glennkirschner If you'd like to support Glenn and buy Team Justice and Justice Matters merchandise visit:https://shop.spreadshirt.com/glennkir...Check out Glenn's website at https://glennkirschner.com/Follow Glenn on:Threads: https://www.threads.net/glennkirschner2Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/glennkirschner2Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/glennkirsch...Bluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/glennkirschn...TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/glennkirschner2See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
The United States entered the conflict between Israel and Iran this weekend after bombing three Iranian nuclear sites. Andrew and Mary start this week's episode here, discussing the scope of presidential war powers and the norms of international law following the strikes. After, they shift focus to immigration, zeroing in on a whistleblower complaint from a former DOJ lawyer against Principal Deputy Attorney General Emil Bove among others, as well as the releases of Mahmoud Khalil and Kilmar Abrego Garcia.

Political violence is never OK. So after the horrible news out of Minnesota, Mary and Andrew begin with a breakdown of the federal charges against the man accused of murdering a Minnesota state lawmaker and her husband and attempting to murder several others.Next, they move to an explainer of an appeals court ruling that temporarily blocked a lower court decision ordering the control of the California National Guard back to the state, while tying in the scuffle during Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem's press conference last week as Senator Alex Padilla was forcibly removed and handcuffed. And rounding out this episode, Andrew and Mary note Trump's failed attempt to appeal the $5 million judgement in the E Jean Carroll case, and the arguments heard last week on his attempt to remove his NY state hush money case to a federal court.Want to listen to this show without ads?

In a sweeping ruling and stern condemnation of Trump's violation of both the federal law AND the Constitution, a federal judge in California ruled that Trump must relinquish control of the California National Guard and return control to California Governor Gavin Newsom. However, the appeals court has issued a brief stay/pause on the ruling.In ruling against Trump, Judge Charles Breyer wrote: "At this early stage of the proceedings, the Court must determine whether the President followed the congressionally mandated procedure for his actions. He did not. His actions were illegal both exceeding the scope of his statutory authority and violating the Tenth Amendment to the United States Constitution. He must therefore return control of the California National Guard to the Governor of the State of California forthwith." Glenn reviews Judge Breyer's ruling and his clever use of the Latin Tern "ipse dixit".If you're interested in supporting our all-volunteer efforts, you can become a Team Justice patron at: / glennkirschner If you'd like to support Glenn and buy Team Justice and Justice Matters merchandise visit:https://shop.spreadshirt.com/glennkir...Check out Glenn's website at https://glennkirschner.com/Follow Glenn on:Threads: https://www.threads.net/glennkirschner2Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/glennkirschner2Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/glennkirsch...Bluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/glennkirschn...TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/glennkirschner2See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
Will a 9th Circuit appeals court put Governor Newsom back in charge of the California National Guard and refuse to accept the ruse of a Trump-declared “rebellion,” or will they rule for Trump and keep him in charge for many more months while they ponder the appeal. Michael Popok reports on today's oral argument and posits that they will likely find that they have jurisdiction to provide oversight over Trump's actions, but want the lower court to develop a more fulsome record before making an ultimate ruling, starting with a hearing in court on Friday before Judge Breyer.

Donald Trump created chaos in California to try to give himself a plausible reason to send troops to California. The problem is, his activation and federalization of the California National Guard violates federal law, as Glenn discusses.If you're interested in supporting our all-volunteer efforts, you can become a Team Justice patron at: / glennkirschner If you'd like to support Glenn and buy Team Justice and Justice Matters merchandise visit:https://shop.spreadshirt.com/glennkir...Check out Glenn's website at https://glennkirschner.com/Follow Glenn on:Threads: https://www.threads.net/glennkirschner2Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/glennkirschner2Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/glennkirsch...Bluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/glennkirschn...TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/glennkirschner2See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
In breaking news, Federal Judge Charles Breyer — finding the Trump Administration violated federal statutes dating to 1903 and the 10th Amendment of the Constitution — has ordered that Trump immediately return command and control over the California National Guard to Governor Newsom. Michael Popok examines the 36 page order issued moments ago and explains why the Court found that Trump's actions were “illegal” and his position that first amendment expression is the same as a “rebellion” chilling, and why the order was stayed for a half a day to permit an appeal.

COUNTDOWN BULLETIN: SEASON 3 EPISODE 137 Attempting to question Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem at her Propaganda Conference in Los Angeles today about the Trump Junta's illegal usurpation of the California National Guard and its illegal deployment of active military into civilian police enforcement, California Senator Alex Padilla was jumped by a series of Trumpist thugs including uniformed members of the FBI who wrestled him to the ground, threatened him, and handcuffed him. This is simply the latest in a string of domestic terrorist events perpetrated by Trump's government since the beginning of the ICE raids rounding up migrants, naturalized citizens, and native-born Americans alike, last Friday. It precipitated minor protests and violence slightly below the level of that seen after the Los Angeles Lakers' basketball team won its last championship in 2020. The manhandling of Padilla may have not been the most ominous development Thursday in our march towards dictatorship. Pressed at a congressional hearing about the pending case asking a judge to restrain Trump from usurping control of the California National Guard from Governor Newsom, Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth refused to confirm he would abide by any ruling from the court with which he would not agree. He is attempting to cloak the insertion of active military into civilian police enforcement, and the overriding of the courts, in some fantasy that he and Trump are enacting "foreign policy" by terrorizing Southern California.

This week, Scott sat down with Lawfare Senior Editors Molly Reynolds and Quinta Jurecic, and Contributing Editor Chris Mirasola, to focus on the week's big domestic news, including:“Drama Majors, Meet Major Drama.” In the glittering city of Los Angeles, the Trump administration has taken the dramatic step of calling up the California National Guard and deploying them alongside active duty Marines to secure federal personnel and facilities, specifically against protestors demonstrating against the Trump administration's draconian immigration policies. Is this the beginning of a broader threat to the constitutional order, as some of Trump's critics say it is? And what should we make of President Trump's suggestion that he may yet invoke the controversial Insurrection Act?“Precision Rescission, What's Your Mission?” The Trump administration has asked Congress to formally rescind a slice of the federal spending it has been withholding since entering office, specifically relating to foreign assistance and the Corporation for Public Broadcasting—a request the House seems poised to move on this week. How likely is it that Congress will agree to the cut in funds? And what will the implications be for relevant legal challenges and Trump's broader agenda?“There and Back Again.” After an unexpected journey and epic delays on the part of the government, the Trump administration has finally repatriated Kilmar Abrego Garcia, the man who was mistakenly deported to El Salvador—only to charge him with human trafficking and other federal crimes in Tennessee. How serious are the charges against him? And is this likely to be a win or loss for the administration's broader immigration agenda?In object lessons, Molly shared a ranking of New York mayoral candidates by their bagel orders—and whose order is so bad, it's a schmear on their very New Yorker-ness. Quinta recommends Ava Kofman's profile of Curtis Yarvin in the New Yorker as a masterclass in the art of meticulous evisceration. Scott introduced his 4-year-old to his old Tintin books by Hergé—because it's never too early to get into the drawbacks of colonialism.

Donald Trump seems to be building a kind of insurrection Ponzi scheme. He has his ICE agents create chaos by engaging in callous, mindless, counter-productive immigration sweeps, then Trump says he must call up and federalize the California National Guard to quell the chaos HE CREATED! However, it appears that Trump violated federal law, which expressly requires that such "orders . . shall be issued through the governors of the states" which Trump failed to do.Accordingly, the Attorney General for California has sued the Trump administration for its unlawful actions.If you're interested in supporting our all-volunteer efforts, you can become a Team Justice patron at: / glennkirschner If you'd like to support Glenn and buy Team Justice and Justice Matters merchandise visit:https://shop.spreadshirt.com/glennkir...Check out Glenn's website at https://glennkirschner.com/Follow Glenn on:Threads: https://www.threads.net/glennkirschner2Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/glennkirschner2Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/glennkirsch...Bluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/glennkirschn...TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/glennkirschner2See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

President Donald Trump deployed California National Guard troops to Los Angeles on Sunday, following demonstrations over the weekend protesting the Trump administration's immigration crackdown. The decision was made without California Governor Gavin Newsom's approval, and the state is now suing the “illegal and immoral” move. We get into all the potential ramifications of the uptick in immigration raids. Then, we discuss how people in other countries have coped with anti-democratic forces in their own communities. Finally, we smile at the original cast of “Hamilton” reuniting for the musical's 10-year anniversary.
