(AP) A federal judge blocked President Donald Trump from sending National Guard troops to Oregon, where protesters have gathered in the block surrounding a U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement building in Portland, setting back his latest attempt at federal intervention in cities.

The ruling came late Sunday, hours after his administration announced plans to send hundreds of National Guard members from California and Texas to the state, following an order issued Saturday that barred it from mobilizing Oregon guard troops to protect federal buildings.

Oregon Gov. Tina Kotek said 101 California National Guard members arrived in her state Saturday night by plane and more were on the way before the ruling was handed down.

“There is no need for military intervention in Oregon," Kotek said Sunday.

The previous day, Trump authorized the deployment of 300 Illinois National Guard troops to protect federal officers and assets in Chicago.

White House spokesperson Abigail Jackson confirmed that the president authorized using the Illinois National Guard members, citing what she called “ongoing violent riots and lawlessness” that local leaders have not quelled.
