Trial Opens Over Trump’s Use of Military in Los Angeles Protests
California challenges legality of 2020 troop deployments
A landmark trial has begun over the Trump administration’s use of U.S. military forces during the 2020 protests in Los Angeles.
The case, brought by the state of California, challenges the legality of deploying National Guard troops and U.S. Marines to the city, a move critics say overstepped constitutional limits on domestic military involvement.
