Donald Trump signed a decree for the deployment of 300 National Guard soldiers in Chicago, while a judge blocked a similar action in Portland.

President Donald Trump has authorized the deployment of 300 National Guard soldiers in Chicago to protect federal agents, in the context of protests against illegal immigration. This is the fifth deployment of the National Guard in cities led by Democrats, despite the opposition of local authorities. A similar action in Portland was blocked by a federal judge, who emphasized that the protests do not pose a major threat. Trump continues to make the fight against immigration a priority, threatening deployments in other major cities.
