Appeals court temporarily blocks judge's ruling to return control of National Guard to California

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 there following protests in Los Angeles over immigration raids.

The court said it would hold a hearing on the matter on Tuesday. The ruling came only hours after a federal judge’s order was to take effect at noon Friday.

Where’s the comment that said this would exactly happen? And how convenient; it gives him weekend access to killing as many people as possible. But don’t suggest defending yourself or actually doing something; you’ll be automodded (which in turn this comment will be automodded as I dare say anything negative about it)

Appeals courts need time to review, so this isn't them saying the lower ruling was wrong, they just actuthave to review as a panel and draft a ruling. This is a standard delay tactic, and Tramp's team knows how to play this system for the weekends.
- Well they better hurry up they're provoking civil war
- We're gonna need to go back under the water and continue drowning while we decide if you can come up for air.

Why do the appeal courts sound like "mom said no, so I'm going to ask dad"?
- Because that’s generally how appeals work in the US. You can “go ask the other parent” multiple times all the way up to the Supreme Court.
  
  It's going to eventually lead to divorce.

It’s gonna be an interesting weekend.
