U.S. appeals court lets Trump keep control of National Guard troops deployed to Los Angeles (LINK) 19 June 2025

— The decision halts a ruling from a lower court judge who found Trump acted illegally when he activated the soldiers over opposition from California Gov. Gavin Newsom. The deployment was the first by a president of a state National Guard without the governor's permission since 1965.

— "The undisputed facts demonstrate that before the deployment of the National Guard, protesters 'pinned down' several federal officers and threw 'concrete chunks, bottles of liquid, and other objects' at the officers. Protesters also damaged federal buildings and caused the closure of at least one federal building. And a federal van was attacked by protesters who smashed in the van's windows," the court wrote. "The federal government's interest in preventing incidents like these is significant."

Kilmar Ábrego García pleads not guilty in human trafficking case (LINK) 13 June 2025

— He first entered the US illegally in 2011 and was granted protection from deportation by an immigration judge in 2019 because it was determined he might face danger from gangs if returned to his native El Salvador. However in March 2025 the Maryland resident was deported and initially held in El Salvador's Cecot mega-prison, in what Trump administration officials later admitted was a mistake. A judge ordered ordered the government to "facilitate" his return, however White House officials initially refused to bring him back. The trafficking charges, which date back to 2016, allege he transported undocumented individuals between Texas and his home in Maryland and other states more than 100 times. Even if he is allowed to be released before his trial, he is not likely to be immediately freed, as prosecutors could appeal and seek to have him detained on immigration grounds.
