Earlier this month, District Judge Karin Immergut ruled in favor of Oregon and found that Trump exceeded his authority by deploying hundreds of Oregon and California National Guard troops to, in part, protect federal staff and property at the Immigration and Customs Enforcement office in South Portland. "The court acknowledged large-scale violent protests in June, but treated them as irrelevant to the President's determination just a few months later," the federal government wrote in its motion.The troops are scheduled to remain under federal control until Nov. 26, "but the Department of War intends to extend this mobilization," according to the federal government's newest court filing. In its new motion to stay the district court ruling, the Trump administration argued that in mid-June, approximately 450 protesters engaged in activities such as starting fires, assaulting officers, blocking traffic, and vandalizing the ICE facility. The protests and demonstrations, according to the appeal, made it difficult to carry out immigration laws. The appeal says the Department of Homeland Security sought assistance from the Department of War to safeguard federal personnel and facilities in Oregon, and President Trump granted the request, directing the federalization of a small number of Oregon National Guard members. The administration claims that the President's determination was lawful under laws that allow federalization when regular forces are unable to execute U.S. laws or when there is a rebellion or danger of rebellion. However, the district court's ruling, presided over by Judge Karin J. Immergut, permanently barred the administration from deploying troops to Portland, stating that the "facts on the ground" showed the protests did not prevent federal agents from carrying out immigration laws and their duties. Oregon Attorney General Dan Rayfield responded to the administration's appeal on Friday, stating, "The district court’s ruling made it clear that this administration must be accountable to the truth and to the rule of law." Rayfield's office has not yet responded to the Trump administration's motion to stay. And last week, Lewis & Clark College law professor Tung Yin commented on the ruling, saying, "It's not that they can't win an appeal, but they would have to get a legal rule that essentially says, the president's determination is conclusive when the president says, my people can't enforce federal law."The Trump administration is requesting an administrative stay by Nov. 21 to prevent the defederalization of Oregon Guard members, citing harms and alteration of the status quo caused by the injunction. The appeal contends that threats against federal officials are often crimes and that officials cannot know in advance which threats will materialize.Man killed in Utah County after pickup spins into oncoming semi A man was killed after a pickup lost control and spun across the road into an oncoming semi in Utah County.According to Lt.
