6. Yes, indeed a TRO was issued yesterday blocking the *Oregon* National Guard deployment

Oct 5

A couple of hours ago (~2pm Sunday PDT) we learned from Governors Newsome and Kotek that Trump has ordered 300 troops from the *California* National Guard to deploy in Portland, apparently on the theory that the Judge's order only applies to the *Oregon* national guard. There are legal filings in preparation as I write this, but it remains to be seen if the Judge who issued yesterday's TRO will amend that order to block ALL national guard deployments based on Trump's claim that Portland is in total chaos, or whether we will have to play legal whack-a-mole with deployments from California and the other 48 states in the Union.
