Fact check: Did obama send the ntaional guard without the goveners concent

1. Summary of the results

The original question contains a misconception. The analyses do not mention any National Guard deployment by President Obama without governor consent. However, they reveal two significant instances of such deployments in U.S. history:

• In 1965, President Lyndon B. Johnson deployed the National Guard to Alabama to protect civil rights demonstrators ^[1]
• In 2025, President Trump deployed 2,000 National Guard troops to Los Angeles without California Governor Gavin Newsom's consent ^{[1] [2]}

2. Missing context/alternative viewpoints

Several crucial pieces of context are missing from the original question:

• The National Guard typically answers to state governors during peacetime, not the president ^[3]
• Trump's 2025 deployment was highly controversial and unprecedented, being the first such action in 60 years ^[4]
• Trump cited Title 10 U.S. Code, Section 12406, claiming the protests constituted a "rebellion" against government authority ^[1]
• Public opinion largely opposes such unilateral deployments, with less than a quarter of Americans supporting presidential deployment without gubernatorial consent ^[4]
• Governor Newsom responded by suing the Trump administration, characterizing the action as "a step toward authoritarianism" ^[2]

3. Potential misinformation/bias in the original statement

The original question reflects several misconceptions:

• It incorrectly attributes a controversial deployment to Obama
• It demonstrates a lack of understanding about National Guard command structure
• It fails to acknowledge that such deployments are extremely rare in U.S. history

This type of misinformation could benefit:

• Political actors seeking to create false equivalencies between different administrations
• Those attempting to normalize federal intervention in state affairs
• Groups trying to diminish the significance of actual historical deployments by suggesting they were more common than they really were

The historical record shows only two such deployments in modern U.S. history (1965 and 2025), making them exceptional rather than routine events ^{[1] [5]}.
