I thought the President controlled the US Military but State Guards were authorized by the Gov? Surely Trump isn’t overstepping gave a Newsome because he thinks it gave him. Newsome is part of the problem, right?
A lot of National Guard armories are stocked mostly with federal assets too. It’s supposed to be a two way agreement between the state and the federal government. But with all the loopholes being poked into the Posse Comitatus Act it’s quickly turning into a one way deal not in favor of the states.

State Guards are controlled by the Governor, the state National Guard isn’t the same as the State Guard
These are not the state guard–they are the national guard.
The president can mobilize the national guard of a state within that state, so what Trump doing is legal for all that matters.
