Controversy Over Trump’s Deployment of National Guard Troops Amid Protests

President Donald Trump has controversially utilized the U.S. military for domestic purposes, deploying National Guard troops to cities like Los Angeles and Washington, D.C. This move aims to quell protests stemming from his immigration policies.

Democratic-led states and cities have responded by filing lawsuits attempting to stop these military deployments, raising questions about their legality. In Los Angeles, a federal judge has twice ruled against the president’s actions. However, a U.S. appeals court has temporarily backed Trump’s use of troops in the city.

Similar scenarios are unfolding in Chicago and Portland, where legal battles emphasize the tension between federal and local authorities. These disputes underscore the broader national debate over the president’s decision, with the U.S. Supreme Court expected to provide a definitive ruling on the issue.
