All 800 National Guard troops officially deployed in DC amid Trump's federal takeover
The Pentagon announced on Thursday that all 800 National Guard personnel sent to aid Washington D.C., law enforcement in US President Donald Trump's federal takeover have been deployed, officially starting Trump's second stationing of troops against a state governor's wishes. All 800 National Guard troops who were ordered to the US capital Washington to aid law enforcement personnel by President Donald Trump have now been mobilized, the Pentagon said Thursday. Trump ordered the deployment -- which follows a similar move during protests in Los Angeles in June -- as part of what he billed as a crackdown on crime in Washington, where violent offenses are in fact down. "As of today, all 800 Army and Air National Guardsmen are mobilized... as part of Joint Task Force DC, and they are now here in our capital," Pentagon Press Secretary Kingsley Wilson told journalists. They "will assist the DC Metropolitan Police Department and federal law enforcement partners with monument security, community safety patrols, protecting federal facilities and officers" and traffic control posts, Wilson said.

The US Army later said the National Guard's initial mission "is to provide a visible presence in key public areas, serving as a visible crime deterrent." "They will not arrest, search, or direct law enforcement," but they "have the authority to temporarily detain individuals to prevent imminent harm," the Army said in a statement. The troops will be equipped with protective gear, it added, saying that weapons would be available if needed but would remain in the armory. Trump announced the National Guard deployment -- along with a federal takeover of the city's police department -- on Monday, vowing "to take our capital back." The overwhelmingly Democratic US capital faces allegations from Republican politicians that it is overrun by crime, plagued by homelessness and financially mismanaged. However, data from Washington police shows significant drops in violent crime between 2023 and 2024, although that was coming off the back of a post-pandemic surge. The deployment of troops in Washington comes after Trump dispatched the National Guard and Marines to quell unrest in Los Angeles, California, that was spurred by immigration enforcement raids. It was the first time since 1965 that a US president deployed the National Guard against the wishes of a state governor. Most National Guard forces answer to state governors and have to be "federalized" to be brought under presidential control, but in Washington these troops already report only to the US president.

Sacramento sheriff claims Kaiser Permanente interfered in shooting investigation that left teen wounded
Sacramento County Sheriff Jim Cooper called out Kaiser Permanente after he said the hospital impeded their investigation after a 14-year-old boy was shot in the face on 42nd Street. Cooper posted on X his frustrations and said Kaiser blocked them from getting the video of the car that dropped a 14-year-old boy off at the hospital. "Who took him there? What kind of car were they in? Why didn't they stick around?" asked Sergeant Amar Gandhi, a spokesperson with the Sacramento County Sheriff's Office. Gandhi said that Kaiser asked them for a warrant, which was never needed in the past. Gandhi confirmed that deputies did view the video the night of the shooting, but they were not allowed to record it, take it or book it. He said it was virtually useless to them. Criminal defense attorney Mike Wise, who is not affiliated with this case, said Kaiser cooperated and did not interfere with the investigation. "We were surprised to see the social media post this morning from Sacramento Sheriff Jim Cooper," Kaiser said in a statement. "We have had a long, positive relationship with the sheriff and his office and have nothing but respect for the work they do." In Cooper's post, the sheriff also criticized Kaiser's new policy: a law enforcement visitation form that requires law enforcement to justify speaking with someone. "I have never seen that before in 30 years of criminal law as both a prosecutor and defense attorney," said Wise. Wise believes Kaiser's directors are trying to protect themselves from negligent release of information. The sheriff's office believes Kaiser is trying to protect patients from United States Immigration and Customs Enforcement, but local law enforcement does not deal with immigration enforcement. "We are committed to complying with the law, cooperating with law enforcement, maintaining safe places for care, and protecting patient privacy," Kaiser's statement went on to say. Gandhi said they are concerned the forms could tip off abusers that police are after them. "I am telling you right now, if you are a bad guy and you've abused a kid, we are going to come get you," said Gandhi. "We are not going to let a form stand in our way." In California, it is mandatory for medical staff to report and cooperate with law enforcement when dealing with victims of sexual assault and minors who are victims of abuse -- even if the victim does not want to talk or the suspect is there. CBS Sacramento asked Kaiser why it created the law enforcement visitation form. It did not have an answer, but Jan Emerson-Shea, a spokesperson with the California Hospital Association, provided a statement. "California hospitals are required under both state and federal laws to protect the privacy of patients," Shea said. "California state law mandates a greater level of patient privacy protections than HIPAA. Under the California Penal Code (Sections 1543-1545), hospitals are prohibited from giving patient information to law enforcement agencies without a court order, search warrant, or the patient's written permission." Gandhi said the sheriff's office met with Kaiser on Thursday afternoon and had a meaningful conversation. The sheriff's office is looking forward to working together to find a solution.
