After protests against immigration raids in Los Angeles, President Donald Trump took the contentious step of mobilizing thousands of National Guard troops and hundreds of US Marines in response. However,

Kansas Gov. Laura Kelly joined an amicus brief with leaders from 20 other states Thursday supporting California’s request for a court order blocking President Trump's deployment of the National Guard.

"Texas National Guard will be deployed to locations across the state to ensure peace & order," said Texas governor Greg Abbott.

On Tuesday, the X page for U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) posted photos of California National Guardsmen on the scene of a detention being carried out by an ICE agent with the caption "Photos from today's ICE Los Angeles immigration enforcement operation."

There is a strong set of norms that has restrained presidents from using federal troops in domestic situations. But Trump shows no respect for norms.

Donald Trump’s mobilization of the National Guard to quell LA protests is a rare exercise of presidential power.

The states say Trump's actions implicate their interest in "ensuring that the deployment of their National Guard units is governed by the rule of law, and not the whims of the President."
