President Trump Threatens to Send National Guard Troops to San Francisco

President Trump says the government will send National Guard troops to San Francisco and may invoke the Insurrection Act to do so. It comes as President Trump asked the Supreme Court on Friday to allow him to send National Guard troops to the Chicago area by lifting lower court orders blocking the deployment. Meanwhile, seven officials in Tennessee are suing the Trump administration for sending the National Guard to Memphis. The lawsuit, backed by the nonprofit Democracy Forward, says, “Our nation’s founders recognized that military rule was incompatible with liberty and democracy. … The facts on the ground cannot justify Defendants’ overreach.” Meanwhile, Vermont’s Republican Governor Phil Scott blasted Trump’s deployment of National Guard troops to Chicago and Portland, calling it unconstitutional. It follows Oklahoma’s GOP Governor Kevin Stitt criticizing the deployment of the Texas National Guard to Illinois.
