Trump: The appellate court ruling proves that the federal government has the authority to protect the public when local resources are insufficient.

Gate News bot message, former President Trump wrote on his social media platform Truth Social: “The Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals has made a significant victory ruling regarding the president’s core power to call in the National Guard! The judges clearly recognized the incompetence and unpreparedness of California Governor Newsom, but the implications of this ruling go far beyond targeting Gavin personally—because across America, if our cities and people need protection and state and local police are unable to perform their duties for any reason, we (the federal government) are the ones who should bear the responsibility of protection. This is a major victory for the nation, and we will continue to protect and defend law-abiding American citizens. Congratulations to the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals; America is proud of you tonight!”
