"You didn't say that I couldn't use the California or Texas National Guard".

That is Donald Trump. Always looking for a loophole in the law that he can exploit for his own benefit. The Judge in Oregon had to call in his lawyers last night before midnight to make clear to them what her TRO actually meant. Did they think she did not mean all the National Guard, she asked them?

The lawyers feigned ignorance. It was a policy decision and beyond their pay grade, they said.

It appears this battle is going to be fought in the courts, if at all?
