Over the weekend, the administration stated that the Commander-in-Chief has ordered the dispatch of the national guard to Chicago, at the same time as a US district judge prevented his government from dispatching personnel to Portland, Oregon.

Administration Reveals Chicago Deployment

An official representative for the administration revealed that the president had given the go-ahead for using Chicago-area militia personnel, citing what she labeled “persistent disturbances and lawlessness” that local leaders have been unable to stop.

Meanwhile in Oregon, US district judge the judicial officer supported the argument from Oregon that the administration dispatching guard forces to the Oregon metropolis would potentially worsen rather than calm demonstrations.

“This judgment validates what residents of Oregon already know: justice has been served, and facts won out,” the top official in Oregon said following the legal injunction was approved. “No rebellion exists in Portland. The country is not endangered. No blazes, no bombs, no deaths due to public protests.”
