President Trump threatened to send National Guard troops and immigration agents to Chicago, posting a provocative image referencing the film "Apocalypse Now." He labeled the planned operation "Chipocalypse Now," echoing his previous deployments to other Democratic-led cities. Illinois Governor JB Pritzker condemned Trump's actions, calling him a "wannabe dictator." The administration plans to increase immigration enforcement and deploy National Guard troops, despite significant opposition and planned legal action from city and state leaders. Trump maintains he has the authority to deploy the National Guard as he sees fit.
