Fellow Michael S. Baker joins ten other retired senior military officers in a Tuesday court filing about the downsides of the Trump administration’s deployment of the National Guard to Los Angeles earlier this year. Read the brief to the Ninth Court of Appeals in Axios here. The federalization of the California National Guard and deployment of federal forces to Los Angeles against the will of state and local authorities should give any supporter of the military and military members pause. Eleven retired senior military officers warned in a Tuesday court filing about the downsides of the Trump administration's deployment of the National Guard to Los Angeles earlier this year. Why it matters: The generals warned about President Trump's politicization of the National Guard as law enforcement and its harm to the "cohesiveness and reputation" of the military.

Catch up quick: Trump deployed the National Guard to Los Angeles in response to anti-Immigration and Customs Enforcement protests earlier this year. Between the lines: Nearly half of U.S. adults in June polling disapproved of Trump's deployment of the National Guard and Marines in response to Los Angeles protests. The bottom line: The retired generals urged the court system to hold the Trump administration accountable for its deployment of the military.
