Texas National Guard Troops Arrive At Army Reserve Center South Of Chicago
4 days ago
National Guard members from Texas are at an Army training center in Illinois. It's the most visible sign yet of the Trump administration’s plan to deploy troops to the Chicago area despite a lawsuit and vigorous opposition from Democratic elected leaders. The Associated Press saw military personnel in uniforms with the Texas National Guard patch at the U.S. Army Reserve Center in Elwood in the far southwestern suburbs of Chicago. On Monday, Texas Republican Gov. Greg Abbott posted a picture on social media showing National Guard members from his state boarding a plane, but he didn’t specify where they were going.
