Is Fast-Tracking Sidney Powell\u2019s ... For A Forensic Exam Of Dominion Voting Machines\">federal appeals court<\/a> has rejected President Donald Trump&#8217;s request to deploy the National Guard to Chicago, dismissing the management&#8217;s claims of violent unrest related to federal immigration operations in the city.The three-judge panel of the Seventh Circuit upheld a lower court&#8217;s block on sending troops to Chicago but allowed the federalization of the Illinois National guard to continue. The court found that the evidence presented did not justify the President&#8217;s actions under federal law and noted that the administration overstated the scale of the protests. The ruling referenced Department of homeland Security press releases highlighting the success of immigration enforcement efforts and stated that protests had not impeded these operations. This decision adds to ongoing legal challenges surrounding National guard deployments in cities like Portland and Los Angeles, wiht courts issuing differing rulings on the administration&#8217;s authority to deploy troops to protect federal property and officials.The Trump administration may appeal this ruling to the Supreme Court.  <\/p>\n<p class=\"readmore\">\n    <button onclick=\"showReadMore()\" id=\"readmorebtn\">Read more&#8230;<\/button>\n<\/p>\n<hr id=\"line\">\n<span id=\"more\"><\/p>\n<p><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><\/p>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><span class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-button\"><i class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-icon td-icon-mobile\"><\/i><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><span class=\"tdb-header-search-button-mob dropdown-toggle\" data-toggle=\"dropdown\"><i class=\"tdb-mobile-search-icon td-icon-search\"><\/i><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><span class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-button\"><i class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-icon td-icon-mobile\"><\/i><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\">\n<div class=\"tdb-drop-down-search\" aria-labelledby=\"td-header-search-button\">\n<div class=\"tdb-drop-down-search-inner\">\n<form method=\"get\" class=\"tdb-search-form\" action=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/\"><\/form>\n<div class=\"tdb-aj-search\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/#\" role=\"button\" aria-label=\"Search\" class=\"tdb-head-search-btn dropdown-toggle\" data-toggle=\"dropdown\"><i class=\"tdb-search-icon td-icon-search\"><\/i><\/a><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\">\n<h1 class=\"tdb-title-text\">Appeals Court rejects Trump&rsquo;s evidence of violent Chicago protests, blocks National Guard deployment<\/h1>\n<div><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-title-line\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\">\n<div id=\"Brid_2369728\" class=\"tpd-featured-video bridtv\"><\/div>\n<p>A federal appeals court rejected President <a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/tag\/donald-trump\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Donald Trump<\/a>&lsquo;s bid to deploy the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/tag\/national-guard\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">National Guard<\/a> to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/tag\/chicago\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Chicago<\/a>, issuing an order on Thursday that downplayed the Trump administration&rsquo;s claims of unrest over federal immigration operations in the city.<\/p>\n<p>A three-judge panel on the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Seventh Circuit <a href=\"https:\/\/storage.courtlistener.com\/recap\/gov.uscourts.ca7.54985\/gov.uscourts.ca7.54985.26.0.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">declined<\/a> to lift a <a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/3YuVZYV\" >lower district court&#038;rsquo<\/a>;s ruling blocking the deployment of troops to Chicago, but it did continue to allow the federalization of the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/tag\/illinois\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Illinois<\/a> National Guard after <a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/news\/white-house\/3847138\/trump-partial-win-bid-to-deploy-national-guard-chicago\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">lifting<\/a> that part of the injunction over the weekend.<\/p>\n<div class=\"recommended-stories\">\n<h2>Recommended Stories<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/news\/justice\/3854196\/smartmatic-charged-bribery-election-officials-philippines\/\">Smartmatic charged in alleged scheme to bribe election officials in Philippines<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/news\/justice\/3852234\/judge-extends-order-blocking-deployment-national-guard-portland\/\">Federal judge extends order blocking deployment of National Guard to Portland<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/policy\/national-security\/3851918\/state-department-adviser-china-officials-1000-top-secret-documents-in-home\/\">Foreign State Department adviser who met China officials held over 1,000 &#8216;top secret&#8217;
