[Global Network Reporter Li Ziyu] According to Axios News Network, California Governor Newsom issued a statement on the 5th local time, saying that the Trump administration is sending California National Guard members to Portland across states after being prevented by the federal district court from deploying the state's National Guard to Portland, Oregon. Newsom called the move shocking and he will file a lawsuit about it.

According to the report, the White House also confirmed the above news on the 5th local time. White House spokeswoman Abigail Jackson said in a statement, "After violent riots and attacks on law enforcement agencies, President Trump exercised his legal power to protect the safety of federal assets and personnel in Portland."

Newton said in a statement that California National Guard officers were now on their way to Portland, saying the Trump administration¡¯s move to deploy the National Guard across states was ¡°an astonishing abuse of law and power,¡± and that ¡°the commander-in-chief is using the U.S. military as a political weapon against American citizens.¡±

In late September, U.S. Defense Secretary Hegseth authorized 200 members of the Oregon National Guard to perform federal functions in Portland for 60 days. Oregon and Portland have filed a lawsuit against the Trump administration. On October 4, a federal judge in Oregon issued a temporary restraining order preventing the federal government from deploying the National Guard to Portland.

On October 5th, local time, the Pentagon of the United States said that it had transferred about 200 federalized California National Guard members from the Los Angeles area to Portland, Oregon according to Trump's instructions to support Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) and other federal agencies in performing their tasks. The transfer came after a federal judge ruled the night before that Trump was temporarily barred from sending the Oregon National Guard to Portland. Pentagon spokesman Sean Parnell said in a statement that these troops will be used to "support federal law enforcement, maintain federal property and protect personnel performing official duties".
