paragraph_text: Newsom v. Trump
  
  Governor Newsom announced early in the morning of June 9 that his office intended to sue the Trump administration for deploying the National Guard without consulting with his office, calling it "illegal and immoral". California attorney general Rob Bonta filed the suit later the same day in the District Court for the Northern District of California, where it was assigned to Judge Charles Breyer, the brother of former Supreme Court justice Stephen Breyer. The next day, Bonta filed an emergency request for a temporary restraining order, asserting that the federalization of the National Guard harms the state's sovereignty, draws on state resources, and "escalates tensions and promotes (rather than quells) civil unrest". Breyer declined Bonta's request and granted the Trump administration's request for more time to respond to the governor's filing. The administration filed its opposition on June 11, calling the suit a "crass political stunt" and arguing that Trump's decision is not reviewable by the courts. On June 12, Breyer granted California's motion for a temporary restraining order, enjoining the federal deployment and restoring control of the Guard to Newsom pending further hearings. He said Trump did not have statutory authority to deploy the Guard and was violating the Tenth Amendment. However, later that day, before Breyer's ruling took effect, the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals paused it and scheduled a hearing for June 17.
