Supreme Court blocks Trump from deploying the National Guard to Chicago

In a major loss to President Donald Trump, the Supreme Court on Tuesday blocked the deployment of the National Guard to Chicago to protect ICE agents.

“At this preliminary stage, the government has failed to identify a source of authority that would allow the military to execute the laws in Illinois,” the court said in its unsigned order.

Conservative Justices Samuel Alito, Clarence Thomas and Neil Gorsuch dissented from the opinion.

Federal law allows a president to federalize the National Guard when he can no longer execute the laws of the United States with “regular forces.” A debate cropped up during the case about whether that term, “regular forces,” meant the regular military or all federal agents, such as those who work for Immigration and Customs Enforcement.

US supreme court blocks Trump bid to deploy national guard to Chicago

In a 6-3 decision, the high court sided with a lower court ruling that blocked deployment of troops to the Illinois city

The US supreme court refused on Tuesday to let Donald Trump send national guard troops to the Chicago area, in an important reining-in of the US president’s efforts to expand the use of the military for domestic purposes in historic moves against a growing number of Democratic-led jurisdictions.

The nation’s highest court denied the US justice department’s request to lift a judge’s order in October that has blocked the deployment of hundreds of national guard personnel in a legal challenge brought by Illinois state officials and local leaders, who had opposed any federalization of those troops to offer backup to immigration enforcement.
