The judge found that Trump's actions had violated the Posse Comitatus Act, which limits the power of the federal government to use military force in domestic matters.

In response, Trump threatened to send troops back to Los Angeles.

"President Trump's recent executive orders and statements regarding the National Guard raise serious concerns as to whether he intends to order troops to violate the Posse Comitatus Act elsewhere in California," wrote Breyer, who further warned that the Trump administration ran the risk of "creating a national police force with the President as its chief.”

Support unions! Support labor! Tax the rich! Tax corporations!

America belongs to its people--all of them.

“The top donors in American politics have poured more than $1.6 billion so far this cycle into influencing the country’s politics,” the Washington Post reports.

“The donors lean Republican, and cash could prove critical for the GOP to maintain control of Congress in November. Republican-leaning donors gave $1.05 billion, compared with $410 million from Democratic-leaning givers and $230 million from bipartisan and special-interest groups for the midterm elections.”
