Judge bans use of National Guard in Chicago for two weeks
October 10, 2025 12:14 PM CDT  By Christine Fernando And Sudhin Thanawala
 
CHICAGO (AP)–U.S. District Judge April Perry on Thursday blocked the deployment of National Guard troops in the Chicago area for at least two weeks, finding no substantial evidence that a “danger of rebellion” is brewing in Illinois during Trump’s immigration crackdown.

It’s a victory for Democratic officials who lead the state and city and have traded insults with President Donald Trump about his drive to put troops on the ground in major urban areas.

“The court confirmed what we all know: There is no credible evidence of a rebellion in the state of Illinois. And no place for the National Guard in the streets of American cities like Chicago,” Gov. JB Pritzker said.

The unity of government which constitutes you one people is also now dear to you. It is justly so, for it is a main pillar in the edifice of your real independence, the support of your tranquility at home, your peace abroad; of your safety; of your prosperity; of that very liberty which you so highly prize. But as it is easy to foresee that, from different causes and from different quarters, much pains will be taken, many artifices employed to weaken in your minds the conviction of this truth.  George Washington - Farewell Address

Who cares what Trump wants?  He's only the president, not nearly as powerful as a federal judge. :whistle:

The Governor and the mayor are flaunting the Federal Supremacy Clause of the US Consitition and inciting public resistence to the Federal Government.

This is idiotic. Federal judges cannot decree themselves commander-in-chief.

Deputize National Guard members as Federal Protective Service officers.  Problem solved.  Thereby, they are civilian Federal officers.

Lawyering is parsing the words on pieces of paper.  "National Guard" and "Federal Protective Service" are different proper nouns.

Chicago might need some more National Park Service Police officers, too.

Isn't it truly amazing, the efforts that Democrat politicians and judges expend, all to protect the criminals?

The lengths that those two groups of incompetents will go to, to keep law-abiding citizens feeling unsafe??

Mind-boggling!!

C'mon, man! Law abiding citizens only vote once, and don't stuff ballot boxes.

Not a big part of their constituency.

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

Exactly.

A court is not the final authority.  The Constitution is.  And that document clearly gives the Executive authority in this area.

We need a Supreme Court who enforces this.
