Oh, it’s happening again — the slow-motion train wreck of progressive legal acrobatics, this time starring Judge Karin J. Immergut, who apparently believes that when federal agents are under siege, barricaded behind burning trash piles, and assaulted with machetes in Portland, the real threat is President Trump trying to stop it.
Because that’s where we are now.
While masked agitators are flinging M80s at federal officers and shining high-powered flashlights into drivers’ eyes as they leave ICE facilities — yes, really — Immergut has taken it upon herself to throw a legal wrench straight into the gears of national security. Her Sunday ruling not only blocks Trump from federalizing the Oregon National Guard but now bars him from sending any National Guard troops from any state to Oregon.
Let that one marinate.
Because while federal property burns and ICE agents are being hunted like prey in their own country, this judge is suddenly concerned about the “sovereignty” of Oregon. Sovereignty! The same Oregon that’s apparently cool with federal employees being doxed and told to “get f***ed up” by online mobs. The same state whose governor, Tina Kotek, watched Antifa light up Portland like a Fourth of July barbecue and said, “Yeah, this is fine.”
But Immergut? She thinks sending help is what would “inflame the situation.” That’s rich.
And it gets better.
This judge — a federal judge, mind you — is seriously arguing that the federal government doesn’t have the authority to protect its own property from violent rioters. Her logic? Because the attacks, threats, assaults, and arsons don’t meet her very specific, oddly academic criteria for “rebellion.”
Apparently, unless you’re forming a uniformed militia, openly declaring war on the government, and reading the Federalist Papers by torchlight, you’re just “protesting.” So the machete attack? The firebombing? The assaults on ICE officers? Not a rebellion. Just, you know, spirited civic engagement.
Meanwhile, in the real world, Trump’s administration — still trying to restore some kind of basic order — launched “Operation Midway Blitz,” sending agents into cities overrun by anti-ICE violence. And while troops are being prepped for deployment to places like Chicago, Portland remains off-limits because a judge in a robe decided that up is down, violence is peace, and enforcing federal law is somehow unconstitutional.
She even dragged Fort Sumter into it. A social media commenter pointed out that this sounds eerily like the arguments that started the Civil War. Back then, rebels claimed the federal government had no right to protect its own forts. That didn’t end well. But sure, let’s run it back.

JUST NOW: Judge Karin Immergut rules President Trump is hereby BLOCKED from commanding the National Guard to quell Antifa violent insurgency in Portland.And before the fact-checkers start hyperventilating, yes — there’s legal precedent for sending National Guard troops across state lines. It happened during the 1968 civil rights riots. Guardsmen from Pennsylvania and New Jersey helped stabilize D.C. No hysteria. No lawsuits. Just common sense.
But now, common sense is treason if it comes with a Trump label.
Immergut’s pearl-clutching argument that mobilizing the Guard “risks blurring the line between civil and military federal power” might’ve landed better if Portland wasn’t currently being run by masked anarchists with literal weapons. Funny how “militarization” is terrifying, but riots? Those are just Tuesday.
Let’s recap: Federal agents are being stalked and attacked. The state refuses to help. The President steps in. A judge says no — because feelings. And the mob keeps winning.
Now ask yourself: Who’s actually in charge? Because right now, it sure isn’t the people elected to keep this country safe.
