The US military says it is reassigning about 200 federalized members of the California National Guard from the Los Angeles area to Portland, Oregon it’s a new tactic to fulfill plans announced by President Donald Trump. A federal court earlier blocked Trump from deploying the Oregon National Guard in that state. The court said there was a lack of evidence that recent protests against the president’s immigration crackdown justified sending in troops.
Meanwhile, Trump has sent 300 Illinois National Guard troops to Chicago to deal with what he calls "out of control crime". Tensions are rising as ICE agents conduct citywide sweeps using increasingly aggressive tactics. Normally, state governors manage National Guard deployments, and federal law restricts the president’s ability to use the military at home.
