4 hours ago
Chicago is seeing a heavy National Guard presence overnight, with 500 troops deployed following orders from President Donald Trump. The move comes amid ongoing protests in the city.
A federal judge is scheduled to hear arguments today regarding the president’s decision.
The lawsuit, filed by the state of Illinois and the city of Chicago, seeks to block the deployment of both Illinois and Texas National Guard members, calling the action unnecessary and illegal.
Video footage shows protesters in the city late last night as tensions continue to mount.
