The 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals on Thursday temporarily blocked a federal judge's order that directed President Donald Trump to return control of National Guard troops to California after he deployed them in response to protests in Los Angeles over immigration raids.

Gov. Phil Murphy expressed support for California Gov. Gavin Newsom and believes the lawmaker is on the “right side of history.”

Gov. Gavin Newsom and Attorney General Rob Bonta filed an emergency request to block expansion of what they called the Trump administration's "unlawful militarization."
