Judge again blocks Trump from sending National Guard troops to Portland

Published October 6, 2025 2:14am ET



A federal judge again blocked President Donald Trump from deploying National Guard troops to Portland, Oregon, in a ruling late on Sunday. It was the second time in two days that the same judge prohibited Trump from deploying the troops. 

Karin Immergut, a U.S. district judge of the United States District Court for the District of Oregon, considered that Trump’s latest attempt to deploy the National Guard to Portland on Sunday was “in direct contravention” of her ruling on Saturday, which denied the president’s request to deploy 200 troops of Oregon’s National Guard, according to All Rise News.
