A federal judge ordered an end to the monthslong National Guard deployment in Washington, D.C. to tackle crime, declaring that the use of troops was "unlawful." It's the latest legal resistance against President Trump's troop deployments in American cities as a means to suppress protests, combat crime, or safeguard federal buildings and personnel, including ICE agents. It comes just days after a Tennessee state judge issued a temporary block on the mobilisation of Guard forces in Memphis, which was activated by the Tennessee governor at Trump's behest.
