California is the manufacturing capital of America, period.
We create more jobs, produce more goods, and drive more innovation than anywhere else in the country — because what gets built in California shapes the future and powers the U.S. economy.

A truly joyful several days in NM—seeing our Legislature pass critical legislation to protect New Mexicans—and spending time in our communities, hearing from federal workers and communities, and supporting our food banks. This is energy we need to fuel our fight as we head back to DC!

Just a fucking disgrace that any president would say this to active duty military. But I expect it from this asshole, who has never respected the apolitical military tradition we’ve had since Washington. No, what’s more disgraceful is the silence of Republican vets in Congress.

Judge Immergut adds another TRO/extends her original TRO against the Federal Government deploying National Guard personnel to the Portland, Oregon metropolitan area.
Order applies to troops from other states as well because her initial concern was conditions in Portland do not fit legal requirement.

I assume the judge will not be happy with this
"After this Court issued a temporary restraining order...Army Northern Command communicated to the California Military Department Executive Leadership that they intended to send 200 of the federalized California National Guard personnel...to Portland.”
