The ruler of Illinois J. B. Prichker accused the government of US President Donald Trump Monday of ordering the National Guard to grow in Chicago, something that both himself and the mayor of the city denounced as unconstitutional and politically motivated.

The news becomes known as Illinoi, along with other US states, appealed against the federal government because it withholding resources intended for public security and disaster.

Prichker pointed out that the Ministry of the Internal Security has informed Illinoi that a memorandum was sent to the Ministry of Defense calling for “the development of 100 soldiers in Illinois (…) to protect the ICE staff and facilities”, the Immigration and Customs Service.

The Governor of Illinois also noted that similar moves had been made before the Trump government approves the development of 200 members of Oregon’s National Guard in Portland.

“It is a pretext to bring troops to the city and to normalize the militarization of our cities. We will not allow it »he underlined.

Both Prichker and Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson have been defying Trump’s threats to the city’s development in the city for weeks.

“I will continue to ensure that our communities of immigrants and irregular immigrants know that they are protected in this city.”Johnson emphasized in his interview yesterday.

However, federal agents with faces covered on the streets of Chicago on Sunday, ignoring Johnson’s recent mandate that forbids members of the class forces from wearing a mask. At the same time, hundreds of immigrants have been arrested in the city, according to the federal government.

Chicago has been targeted by Trump due to the mandate of the local authorities that prohibit municipal officials, including police, to provide assistance to members of the federal classroom enforcement services.

The Republican president has said he wishes to deport a number of records of immigrants in the US, which he considers necessary because of the large number of people who crossed the border under the presidency Joe Biden.

Operation “Thunderbolt”

From the first weeks of the operation launched by the Trump government to tackle the irregular ICE armed members of ICE to patrol in the center of Chicago.

In addition, ICE agents clash daily with protesters outside the Migrant Recording Center in the Brondvio suburb.

Yesterday, the Ministry of Justice announced that Minister Pam Bodi had asked the National Guard to defend the Ice facilities in Chicago and Portland.

Ice is trying to increase the arrests of irregular immigrants before the end of the current financial year on September 30, to show that Trump’s efforts to impose order are being fruitful, according to an internal email that was in the possession of Reuters and with two officials of the service.

A large number of ICE members have been sent to major US cities in recent weeks – such as Los Angeles, Chicago and Washington, as well as Houston, Nashville, Seattle and El Paso – to participate in immigrant arrests.
