The Trump administration released some 150 California National Guard troops from federal duties in Los Angeles on Tuesday as the region faces threats from multiple wildfires. Why it matters: It's the first time the administration has released National Guard members since President Trump deployed thousands of troops and 700 U.

The Trump administration recently approved a request from the military commander of the National Guard troops deployed to respond to immigration-related unrest in the Los Angeles area to return some of the troops to California's command.

The contentious case of President Donald Trump's deployment of National Guard soldiers in California has reached a new stage as a federal judge ruled California Gov. Gavin Newsom may be granted limited discovery — and the case will remain in its current jurisdiction.
