A former federal prosecutor was taken aback on Wednesday after a federal judge essentially told President Donald Trump to "get your damn hands off" the California National Guard.

On Wednesday, U.S. District Judge Charles Breyer in San Francisco ruled that the Trump administration must end its deployment of federal troops in Los Angeles, ending a months-long standoff between the administration and the state government. The administration claimed they federalized the California National Guard to protect immigration agents from protesters, a claim that Breyer found unconvincing.

A federal judge on Wednesday temporarily blocked enforcement of a Department of Homeland Security order prohibiting "unusual noise" near a government building in Eugene, Oregon.
