A federal appeals court on Monday delivered a significant win for President Donald Trump by lifting a court order that blocked him from deploying National Guard troops to Portland, amid his multi-city crackdown on crime.Â
A lower court judge had blocked the Trump administration twice so far from deploying National Guard troops to Portland amid heavy protests. The troops are expected to protect an ICE facility where protesters have clashed with agents.
The order comes after the Ninth Circuit restored Trump’s control of the National Guard troops last week, but kept a hold on the troops being deployed until Monday.
