Illinois Sues Trump Over National Guard Deployment to Chicago

Illinois and Chicago have filed a federal lawsuit against the Trump administration to block the deployment and federalization of National Guard troops in Illinois, arguing it is only permissible in cases of invasion or rebellion. The administration has attempted to send troops to Chicago and Portland, citing lawlessness, but local leaders oppose these moves, and courts have temporarily blocked some deployments. The situation is part of a broader controversy over federal intervention in Democratic-run cities.
