The Trump administration has been planning for weeks to send the National Guard to Chicago, two officials told CNN, as President Trump looks to expand his anti-crime agenda and crackdown on immigration in major cities across the United States. https://cnn.it/45yvNjJ
CNN - Crap News Network Classic "two officials" - 😂
"Anti-crime." Fuck you and your sane washing.
Ironically this is the 'Deep State' that MAGAists have long complained about.
Team Trump spoiling for a fight. When Trump falls all those involved in this anti-constitutional crackdown on American cities will end up in prison. That includes White House staff, Republican politicians, Federal officers and National Guardsmen. Alligator Alcatraz is going to be a busy place.
PRESIDENT TRUMP DEMONSTRATES WHY HE BANKRUPTED A CASINO-TWICE-BY MARCHING ON A CITY OF 2 MILLION WITH 17,00 VOLUNTEER NAT. GUARD. MAY THE ODDS BE IN HIS FAVOR AS MOST NUMBERS CERTAINLY ARENT. ‼️ REMINDER TO ALL “I’D PREFER NOT” IS AN ACCEPTABLE FORM OF RESISTANCE FOR SOLDIERS AND CITIZENS ALIKE. ‼️
They need to be sent to the WH, SCOTUS and All of Trump Appointed Depts
Fox News
Not good.
I'm very sorry for our neighbors to the south. Trump is quickly building his throne, democracy is being done away with. You had a world class democracy.
BLOG: These deployments are NOT about crime. They're about political control thru intimidation & violence. We are seeing the birth of American Brownshirts. More are coming. You fight fascism by actually fighting; these goons don’t care about words, law, human rights. www.jandehn.com/post/trump-s...
A lot of people saw the US falling to fascism decades ago; I think the pedophile angle caught us all off guard though.
I hope Pritzker can do something to stop them
Yes CNN, the career felon definitely has an anti-crime agenda. Really flexing those journalistic muscles.
this is not what national guards took an oath to do-complete disrespect & abuse all to shower trumps ego-IMPEACH HIM NOW!
I sure hope everybody in this nation is prepared for what is coming. There will not be a midterm election. A state of emergency will be declared. And the reason that he’s sending troops to Chicago in Washington and other cities across the country is to ensure that the people don’t rise up.
Everything Trump does is obvious yet no one stops him.
He is a moron and all of the people, his cabinet and the republican senators that approved them, should be removed from office. They all followed the moron and took an oath of office that means nothing to them.
The orange turd has already been told no thanks by Illinois, and by law the federal troops are only allowed into the state AT THE STATE’s REQUEST. No request has been made.
But he doesn't do anything once they get where they're supposed to go. They just stand around Like Toy Soldiers not knowing what to do. When you're not trained to do something and you're going to be very inept at it
Since 2020 …. bsky.app/profile/vict...
how can you have an "anti-crime agenda" if the crimes are made up
Time for States to stop dictator invasions at their borders. Wolverines !
This is one of our largest cities. Chicago is 234 square miles with close to 3 million people living in it. Trump will need a lot more than a few national guard to have any impact other than making TikToks.
Trump doesn't care about crime. He doesn't want anymore protests especially No Kings
It gets very cold on the streets of Chicago, boys, especially in winter. Brrrr!
Yeah. You could learn from the Russians who just freeze out invaders with their nasty winters
Time for the states to fight back with their own National Guard. Death to tyrants

You need to stop calling this “his anti-crime agenda” you fucks
Anti crime agenda = military invasion of American cities
Seriously... It's a fucking civil war!!
That move to Chicago isn't about immigration, it is about control and it's very near of Canada. An army so close it's not good... It's look like Russia, just before it went in war with Ukraine...😤
It's SHAMEFUL that CNN reports it "anti-crime agenda" when it is, in fact, a power grab.
Superman doesn't have to explain himself. He just fell-out of the sky yesterday. Right @cnn.com ? An Alien in a Clown Suit who thinks he's fighting for truth, justice and the American way. @theguardian.com www.theguardian.com/world/2024/f...
“The State of Illinois at this time has received no requests or outreach from the federal government asking if we need assistance, and we have made no requests for federal intervention.” Governor of IL
The entire narrative comes from hearsay “two officials told CNN”. The governor of IL has already denied it. CNN is proKremlin which is actually proChina.
CNN gets it wrong again. It’s called an abuse of executive power.
When is CNN going to finally step up and raise the alarm and actually do some journalism????? He should be impeached, dethroned, imprisoned for this. Shame on @CNN!
Isn't crime at an all-time low in this country? Like everything on the Right they're like 30 years late. Also, how embarrassing is it for the Gaurdsmen to tell people they were deployed to Chicago? Man, I'd be embarrassed to admit that shit.
Trump is a convicted felon and will always remain so. Trump and his administration are the worst that could have happened to the United States. This is the end of your Democracy.
Worst legitimizing headline EVER. Here we are, on the threshold of authoritarianism, our Democracy reeling, and CNN is out here obfuscating, lending credibility to what we all know is Fascism. It’s dangerous, disgusting and pathetic.
I once heard a fable of a 'Land of the Free' - it was not true, not in my lifetime at least, but today we see the most obvious and blatant proof of the opposite coming out as the new normal.
Texas bussed immigrants in this winter to Chicago and MAGA cheered, because it was cruel AND would put stress on Chicago City resources. Now Trump is sending in the military to deal with Chicago's immigration and homeless problem???
This isn't about an anti-crime agenda or an "immigration crackdown", this is a fascist police state operating in the open. Get your headline correct, no wonder CNN+ failed, you guys are pandering to the orange buffoon
Fear. That’s his MO. It’s martial law under the guise of fighting crime. If anyone thinks this is ok and normal then you either don’t care to exist under a fascist rule with little to no freedoms or you bought the theater and believe in the ego maniac. What will it take for you to SEE. Heil Trump!
Stop legitimatizing it as a "crime crackdown" its a military invasion. And the only thing thats gonna stop th3m is #physicalremoval.
Looks like Germany 1933-1934. A few steps away from dictatorship (or civil war).
If this continues happening we’re going to fall come 2026 election. He will try to arrest or stop people of color from voting since the republicans are finally showing the racism. It’s always been this way. Look at Al the years of Jim Crow laws where we’re the republicans than and since.
Rise up Chicago!
If representing all Americans is the President’s job, what does gerrymandering and sending armed troops into jurisdictions that didn’t vote Republican represent?
Trump expanded ICE WITH MORE MONEY THAN MANY COUNTRIES HAVE FOR THEIr ARMY. Why? He wants to impose ICE to make citizens angry start to resist. Then he declares Marshall Law to "..quell the uprising & stop the violence" then he keeps Marshall Law & is a dictator & will never let us vote again.
CNN spreading the cheeks for Trump's tiny pecker. Pathetic.
Meanwhile, the Epstein files.... #distraction
Everything Trump does is to keep himself out of prison. He will stop at nothing. Gov. Pritzker is well aware of this and is one of our nation’s best fighters against Trump. 💙
I live in the Chicago Suburbs. If they go to Chicago, I'm afraid of what they'll do with all of Illinois. I'd better start carrying my passport with me regularly.
I doubt it will help.
It's a US passport, so I'd say better than only having my driver's license. I can only do what I can here.
Sanewashing as per usual, CNN. You could slap this on the Fox News website and no one could tell the difference.
It is not an anti-crime agenda. There are plenty of places in red states with higher crime per capital than Chicago or DC. We don't know for sure what his agenda is, but it is definitely not about crime Be honest CNN!!!
It’s clear pathological lying felon insurrectionist trump is militarizing #NationalGuard to take over America www.independent.co.uk/news/world/a... using crime and immigration as excuse to end #democracy noting military not trained in police work or grasping economics of crime #fascism
Secret Democrat Trump seeks to raise profiles of more Democrats in the buildup to 2028
Some misguided individuals in the US are so upset with their own pathetic little lives. They voted for retribution & a military takeover of the government. MSM so pathetic, they don’t even mind.
Fuck Trump. Arrest the commanding officers when they deploy for unlawful invasion of a state. They swore an oath to defend the constitution, not loyalty to Trump.
"Just following orders" is not a legal defense for committing unlawful acts.
Don't get me wrong, I'm in southern Illinois and no fan of Chicago. I am a fan of the Constitution and our troops. It's time for them to stand up for the Constitution and sit Trump down.
So you voted for Trump then?
Oh hell no, why would you think that? Because im in southern Illinois?
Call it what it is! An illegal fascist power grab. There is no emergency that dictates this illegal use of the military. That is a fact. Stop parroting the fascists talking points.
This is dictatorship!
Wow CNN what bullshit headline. Trump’s “agenda” certainly isn’t anti-crime but it is criminal, or his part.
Language matters: What happens is not at all an anti-crime agenda, whatever the person currently occupying the White House claims. What happens is expanding military grip on american cities, and terrorizing the inhabitants, particularly those which are not conforming to the white supremacist agenda.
Real headline is 'Trump plans to invade Chicago and implement martial law'.
This is all about him trying to control elections. One way or another, he plans to rig the elections so that he will become the first US autocratic dictator. Look at what he’s doing in DC; he’s reconstructing it to become his forever home or Maralogo II.
Nope. Expand authoritarian control and eliminate elections
I'm a veteran and swore to defend the constitution, not a president or king. If you are at the end of your enlistment, able to retire from the military,you should consider doing it, or you will be killing our allies for Russia and become part of the new 3rd right gestapo killing Americans.
“anti-crime agenda?” Come on. It’s a takeover. Do better.
Looks like Trumps agenda to create a military state is moving forward. People in this country need to really question everything he does. This is not just a Democratic problem. It is a Democracy problem. This is what it looks like under a dictatorship.
Anti-crime isn’t his agenda, it’s his (false) pretext.
Yeah just present this like it's normal, Collaborative News Network
Chicago, please show Trump who’s boss
The gangs (excluding police) may be able to do that... We can only hope that a mutual enemy united them on this.
It is not an “anti-crime agenda”. Please report accurately on a fascist putting military into the cities.
I will not visit any city with an untrained military, in the streets with weapons.
I see bad things with untrained people with weapons. Kent State comes to mind.
Cracking down on historically low levels of crime is simply performance theater propaganda. 🎭 Using our military to fight crime is against everything our country stands for. Invading cities because of their political affiliation is straight up hate & intimidation 101. Sincerely, Cpt. Obvious 🇺🇸
MAGA private army
CNN is complicit, treat them like any other Nazis
This is what happens when the National Guard is sent to police citizens. The victims were Jeffrey Glenn Miller, Allison Beth Krause, William Knox Schroeder, and Sandra Lee Scheuer. Please distribute these pictures as a reminder in the cities occupied by the National Guard.
Trump doesn't want another - " No Kings 👑" protest •DOJ was a lobbyist, client was Corecivic🤑 from prisons &probably the immigrant detention center. Trump doesn't want Biden to have this success of reducing unchallenged. I have Never felt Unsafe in Washington DC.
"Anti-crime agenda." The man IS the crime. He's anti-home-rule and anti-Dem.
love to paint an illegitimate criminal President sending the military into major democratic population centers as "anti-crime"
It’s not a crackdown it’s an unprecedented federal invasion of a state, for political reasons, by an authoritarian Government.
Using red state troops. It's a civil war!
Exactly!!
I live in the middle of this state and the teumptards are all excited for this! Pathetic
I hope that are the first ones dragged away
Plans to expand martial law and his grip on power, dictator trump has achieved his agenda and grip on power, and completely destroyed the constitution and democracy
Where are all the right wing conspiracy nuts screaming “posse comitatus!” now? Fucking complicit cowards.
They are probably locked in a gulag somewhere cause they had tattoos
everyone in uniform are now traitors against us, fu** them
