A federal judge in San Francisco seemed unconvinced after a three-day trial that the continued deployment of federalized members of California’s National Guard — who were originally deployed to Los Angeles in response to protests against President Donald Trump’s immigration agenda — is lawful.

A general testified that National Guard troops repeatedly rehearsed their role in an operation at a Los Angeles park intended as a show of force against people protesting immigration raids.

A fight between President Donald Trump and Democratic Gov. Gavin Newsom over the National Guard's presence in California will come to a head in a three-day trial.

The Trump administration is expanding National Guard support at immigration detention sites. Florida activated troops on Tuesday.

SAN FRANCISCO (AP) — A federal judge in San Francisco will consider evidence and hear arguments on whether the Trump administration violated federal law when it deployed National Guard soldiers and U.S. Marines to Los Angeles following protests over immigration raids this summer.

Lawyers for President Donald Trump and California Gov. Gavin Newsom are set to face off Monday to determine whether the president violated a 147-year-old law when he deployed the National Guard to quell anti-immigration enforcement protests in Los Angeles – against the wishes of the governor.
