In a landmark decision announced Monday, the 9th Circuit Court of Appeals ruled that President Donald Trump has the authority to deploy the Oregon National Guard into Portland, marking a major victory for the former president in his ongoing effort to restore law and order in what he previously described as a “war-ravaged city.”
The ruling reverses earlier lower-court decisions that blocked Trump’s attempt to federalize Oregon’s National Guard during the height of violent protests and political unrest. According to the court’s majority opinion, the President maintains constitutional powers under the Insurrection Act and Article II to intervene when “local authorities fail to protect citizens or enforce the rule of law.”
Legal experts say this decision could set a powerful precedent for executive authority over state-level security forces. Supporters of the ruling are calling it a “return to law and order,” while critics warn it could open the door to federal overreach into state affairs.
Sources inside Trump’s team are celebrating the outcome, with one aide calling it “proof that strong leadership wins.” Meanwhile, Oregon state officials have yet to release a formal response, but Governor Kate Brown’s office signaled it is “reviewing all legal options.”
This ruling reignites a heated national debate over the balance of state sovereignty vs. federal power, especially when it comes to handling civil unrest.
