The administration still had several hundred soldiers in Los Angeles when the trial took place, although the protests had long died down. The troops were being used for security during raids on marijuana farms outside the city and as a show of force to deter protests at a popular park during an operation by immigration agents, according to evidence shown at trial.

That ain’t protecting federal property. That’s troops doing domestic policing, should be clear as day.

Issuing a ruling a month after the fact shows how useless the judicial branch is against executive overreach.

Are they all gone now? Nope.
