The Trump administration has taken its battle over National Guard deployment in Illinois to the Supreme Court, seeking approval to mobilize troops in Chicago amid legal setbacks. An appeals court recently upheld a ruling that prohibited the deployment, stating there was insufficient evidence to justify the action, which the governor described as a dangerous power grab. Governor JB Pritzker has called meetings with retired military leaders who have condemned the effort, emphasizing concerns over the militarization of the city. Meanwhile, a poll indicates that a majority of Chicagoans oppose the use of the National Guard for policing purposes. As the appeals court blocks deployment for now, all eyes are on the Supreme Court to make a definitive ruling on the matter.
