Donald Trump on Saturday got hit with a legal loss when an appeals court blocked his administration from deploying the National Guard on the streets of Chicago, Illinois.
NBC News legal affairs reporter Gary Grumbach flagged the news on social media, writing, "The Seventh Circuit Court of Appeals has blocked the Trump administration from deploying the National Guard on the streets of Illinois, in response to an emergency motion from the administration to pause Judge Perry’s order from earlier this week."
Others noted that the ruling was mixed, because Trump was granted authorization to federalize the National Guard.
"The Seventh Circuit REFUSES to allow Trump to immediately deploy the National Guard in Chicago, but allows them to be federalized pending appeal. Same initial ruling as the Ninth Circuit, before oral arguments," wrote journalist Adam Klasfeld.
