drone attacks from Iran. President Trump reacting to this. Now here's ABC's Karen Travers.
President Trump and his social media post early Friday morning is urging Iranian officials to reach an agreement on a nuclear deal with the United States, the President suggesting the drawn out negotiations are what led Israel to launch its overnight strike. Before the Israeli attacks, President Trump signaled he was committed to a diplomatic resolution with Iran and warned that action by Israel could potentially derail negotiations.

A US District judge ruling last night that the president illegally deployed four thousand National Guard troops in LA to quell immigration raid protests, but the judge's order to relinquish control of those troops back to California has been put on hold. Here's ABC's Matt Rivers breaking.
It down in a scathing opinion, Judge Charles Bryer saying the protests fall far short of the legal requirements of a rebellion to justify a federal deployment. The judge ordering Trump to return command of the guardsmen to Governor Gavin Newsom by noon today, saying the citizens of Los Angeles face a greater harm from the continued unlawful militarization of
their city. But then just a few hours later, a federal appeals court putting that order on hold, ruling Trump can keep the California National Guard deployed for now.
An appeals court hearing about the matter is set for next Tuesday. Taking a look at the forecast for the weekend. I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but yeah, we've got more rain this weekend.
