He condemned the shootings, which affected victims ranging from a 14-year-old boy to a 68-year-old senior, and criticized Illinois Governor JB Pritzker and Chicago Mayor Brandon johnson for their response. Trump called for the deployment of federal forces, specifically the National Guard, to restore order.<\/p>\n<p>However, Governor Pritzker and Mayor Johnson opposed the federal deployment, viewing it as unneeded and an abuse of power. They argue it represents authoritarianism and threatens constitutional principles protecting against military occupation of American cities. illinois and chicago have sued to block the Trump governance&#8217;s efforts, with <a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/3YuVZYV\" >federal courts issuing injunctions preventing<\/a> the deployment of National Guard troops within the state. The legal battle continues, with the Trump administration appealing to the Supreme Court. Simultaneously occurring, the court has extended the block on the deployment indefinitely.  <\/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\">After weekend violence in Chicago, Trump calls for bringing in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/better-than-expected-u-s-economy-added-638000-jobs-in-october-unemployment-dropped-to-6-9\/\" title=\"Better Than Expected: U.S. Economy Added 638,000 Jobs in October, Unemployment Dropped to 6.9%\">federal government<\/a><\/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_2379807\" class=\"tpd-featured-video bridtv\"><\/div>\n<p>President <a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/tag\/donald-trump\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Donald Trump<\/a> called for the federal government to intervene in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/news\/supreme-court\/3855487\/trump-administration-asks-supreme-court-allow-national-guard-deployment-chicago\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Chicago<\/a> after a weekend of violence in which 25 people were shot.<\/p>\n<p>Four people were killed and 21 others were wounded, according to reports.
