U.S. District Judge Charles R. Breyer has ruled that President Donald J. Trump and Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth violated federal law and the โ1878 Posse Comitatus Actโ when they deployed Federalized National Guardsmen and Marines to Los Angeles, California in June.
โThe evidence at trial established that Defendants systematically used armed soldiers (whose identity was often obscured by protective armor) and military vehicles to set up protective perimeters and traffic blockades, engage in crowd control, and otherwise demonstrate a military presence in and around Los Angeles. In short, Defendants violated the Posse Comitatus Act,โ Breyer said, adding that the use of federal troops effectively created a โnational police force with the president as its chief.โ
As part of todayโs ruling, Judge Breyer has issued an order prohibiting troops from engaging in security patrols, riot control, arrests, searches and crowd control across the United States, beginning September 12.

The Institute for the Study of War (ISW) has assessed that Russia used the lead-up to summit in Anchorage, Alaska on August 15 to stockpile drones and ballistic/cruise missiles and conducted more limited strikes against Ukraine to falsely present itself as a โgood-faith negotiatorโ to U.S. President Donald J. Trump. Russia will likely continue to escalate its strikes against Ukraine in the coming weeks to leverage its replenished missile and drone stockpiles and degrade Ukrainian energy infrastructure ahead of the coming Winter.
