Trump Deploys National Guard To Portland In Defiance of Court Order

Trump Deploys National Guard To Portland In Defiance of Court Order

National Guard troops have been deployed to Portland, Oregon, in defiance of a federal judge’s court order. Donald Trump has been creating standing armies in towns across the United States, even though the militarization of law enforcement is a violation of the Constitution.

Militarization of the police forces has been increasing, and has been shoved into overdrive lately.

Locals rejected Trump’s portrayal of Portland as a “warzone,” sharing images of peaceful daily life (farmers markets, cafes) and dismissing protests as small-scale, non-threatening demonstrations. Nonetheless, the Department of Defense (now known as the Department of War) mobilized the Texas National Guard after the restraining order, signaling continued defiance. Critics, including California Attorney General Rob Bonta, accused Trump of weaponizing the military against Democratic cities.

After the deployment on Sunday, October 5th, Trump cited ongoing “violent riots and attacks on law enforcement” near an Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) facility to justify the deployment. The move came just one day after U.S. District Judge Karin Immergut – who Trump appointed during his first term – ruled that federalizing the Oregon National Guard would violate constitutional limits on military involvement in domestic law enforcement, according to a report by Natural News. 

Trump’s National Guard Deployments Centralize Power and Undermine Federalism

California Governor Gavin Newsom condemned the deployment as “un-American” and vowed legal action. “They are currently en route there,” Newsom posted on X. “We’re going back to court to contest this. When such careless and authoritarian behavior occurs, the people cannot remain silent.”

“There is no need for military intervention in Oregon,” Governor Tina Kotek reiterated.  “There is no insurrection in Portland. No threat to national security.”

“We need federal help to renew our infrastructure. Instead of help, they’re sending armored vehicles and masked men,” Portland Mayor Keith Wilson said.

The ruling class is no longer hiding it. We are the enemy, and they are making it abundantly clear. This has little to do with illegal immigration and a lot to do with getting the slave class to accept standing armies in American cities.
