Texas National Guard troops seen protecting federal property in Illinois
A small number of National Guard troops has started protecting federal property in the Chicago area, according to officials.Â
As featured on
The state of Illinois is urging a judge to order the National Guard to stand down in the Chicago area. The state calls the deployment a constitutional crisis and suggests that President Donald Trump's administration gave no heed to the pending legal challenge. Federal Judge April Perry is hearing arguments Thursday. Members of the National Guard arrived Monday, and some are stationed at a Chicago-area immigration building. A Department of Justice lawyer says the Chicago area was rife with "tragic lawlessness." He noted an incident last weekend in which a Border Patrol vehicle was boxed in and a woman was shot by an agent.
