9th Circuit supports Trump action to save LA

 Federalist Wire:

...

A federal appeals court has stepped into a heated dispute, allowing thousands of National Guard troops to remain in Los Angeles to address anti-ICE protests. The decision, handed down by a 9th Circuit panel on Thursday, temporarily halts a lower court’s ruling that sought to return control of the Guard to California’s state government.

The US Court of Appeals for the 9th Circuit issued an administrative stay just hours after San Francisco US District Judge Charles Breyer ordered President Trump to “return control” of approximately 4,000 National Guard members to Governor Gavin Newsom. Breyer’s ruling came in response to Newsom’s lawsuit challenging the federal government’s deployment of the Guard to protect immigration enforcement operations in Los Angeles. The appeals court’s stay ensures the Guard remains under federal control at least until a hearing scheduled for Tuesday.

The 9th Circuit panel, composed of two Trump-appointed judges and one appointed by President Joe Biden, acted swiftly after the Trump administration filed an emergency appeal. The appeal followed Breyer’s decision, which allowed Newsom to retake command of the Guard by 3 p.m. ET Friday.
...

The administration cited a statute allowing the president to activate the National Guard in cases of foreign invasion, rebellion, or when local law enforcement cannot uphold federal laws. Shumate claimed Trump’s discussions with Newsom about the Los Angeles situation satisfied procedural requirements, a point Newsom vehemently disputed. The governor called Trump “a stone-cold liar,” insisting the president “never once” mentioned the Guard deployment during their conversation. “He never discussed the National Guard, period. Full stop,” Newsom said, alleging he learned of the decision via a social media post referencing “Governor Newscum” — a jab he noted was unoriginal, recalling childhood taunts.
...

I think the move by Trump took place becasue Newsom's actions up to that point had not been effective.  Stopping the riots should have been the main concern, and Trump's actions did that.  I am obviously not a fan of Newsom.  By the way, ICE is a federal agency, and Trump had the right to protect it from attacks.

Should Republicans go ahead and add Supreme Court Justices to head off Democrats

Washington Post: Some Democrats eye adding more justices to the Supreme Court to change its ideological bent The once-remote idea has gained the attention of liberals angered by the GOP push to remake the federal courts. Probably the easy way to defeat this court-packing scheme is for Trump to propose doing the same thing now.  It would lead to Democrat denunciations and claims that it would be wrong, thereby blowing up any attempt by them in the unfortunate event of Democrats winning a presidential election.

Is the F-35 obsolete?

Headline USA: Pentagon Fires Back after Musk Calls Its Most Expensive Project ‘Obsolete’ 'Yeah, as I'm sure you can appreciate, Mr. Musk is, currently, a private citizen, I'm not going to make any comments about what a private citizen may have to say about the F-35....'   ... ... Drones appear to be replacing jets for many operations.  The Russia-Ukraine war is an example of that.  Drones are often hard to detect and can be used for intelligence operations as well as for attacking enemy targets.  It would not surprise me to see drones engaging other drones in combat.  They also cost much less than manned fighters.
