Appeals court makes major decision on Trump's National Guard deployment to Portland

The Trump administration saw a court loss on Tuesday night as a federal appeals court agreed to reconsider a major case that previously "paved the way" for the deployment of National Guard troops to Portland, Oregon, while the case against it plays out.

The 9th Circuit Court of Appeals on Tuesday agreed to rehear the case en banc, with a new slate of judges present.

CNN reported that the court previously "paved the way" for Trump to deploy troops to Portland while the state's case proceeded through the courts.

It initially froze a decision issued earlier this month by a lower court that blocked Trump from deploying Oregon’s National Guard in Portland.
