Does Pritzker know about this? A little over an hour ago he posted that he has not received any contact from the WH about this. So, Shitler is most definitely sending them without notifying him first. What then?

It can’t be long, if trump keeps sending troops against the American people! I fear we will see the rise of armed opposition. There won’t be any good choices.

It's obvious the military is not going to protect the people from Trump, so they have become the enemy of the people and against democracy.

If they’re interested in defending democracy, maybe the Pentagon should deploy to Ukraine? If they’re a bunch of pussies on holiday, sure Chicago is beautiful.

A president that puts military troops in American cities while using fake emergencies is an embarrassment to the office of the President.
