Summary

A Trump appointed Judge just PERMANENTLY BLOCKED his use of the National Guard in Portland Oregon after a 3 day trial, finding that he had no right under Congress’ statute to take over and deploy the National Guard because there was no “rebellion” on the streets of Oregon, nor was ICE unable to execute its immigration and detention policy because of basically peaceful protests. Michael Popok dissects the 106 page order, and predicts Trump’s next steps including an appeal to the 9th Circuit and to the US Supreme Court.

0:00.0	Hmm. Mr Thing loves winter. Fluffy slippers, hot chalk, the heating on.
0:05.4	Uh-oh, that didn't sound good. Looks like the boilers packed in.
0:09.1	Thankfully, Mr. Thing has British Gas Home Care cover, which means unlimited repairs for his boiler, heating, electrics and more.

0:27.7	December. New customers only remaining six months at full price. It seems like I've started a lot of
0:31.6	hot takes this week with in breaking news, a federal judge has issued an injunction or a temporary restraining order or ruled against
0:40.0	the Trump administration. There's been nine different examples of that this week alone. And in
0:44.1	breaking news, we have our latest. Just coming in the last couple of hours on a late Friday night,

1:37.0	government, their state sovereignty. I'll read to you from the order. It's 100 and,, it's a hundred and six pages. I'll give you the
1:45.1	highlights. She cites the founding fathers. She cites the framers. She cites the Federalist
1:50.2	papers for why we don't want a standing army in the hands of an overgrown executive.
