Administration Reveals Chicago Troop Dispatch

An official representative for the White House stated that the president had given the go-ahead for using the state of Illinois militia personnel, citing what she called “ongoing violent riots and unrest” that city officials have not quelled.

In Oregon, federal judge Karin Immergut concurred with the argument from Oregon that the President dispatching militia members to the Oregon metropolis would probably escalate rather than ease demonstrations.

“The court's decision supports what local citizens already know: justice has been served, and reality triumphed,” the state's chief executive stated following the restraining order was approved. “No uprising is occurring in this municipality. No threat to national security. No flames, no bombs, no deaths due to civil unrest.”

Chief Executive Labels Move Unnecessary

The state's top official, JB Pritzker labeled the move unjustified and “a staged event – not a real attempt to protect public safety.”

Judge Halts Portland Troop Deployment

Donald Trump has encountered resistance to his strategy of deploying forces to cities under Democratic leadership he describes as lawless, subsequent to a US district judge blocked his administration’s attempt to deploy the state militia to Portland.
