Vance says administration will keep fighting to send National Guard to Chicago

An appeals court again halted the Trump administration from deploying National Guard troops in the Chicago area, even as it allowed the forces to remain federalized in Illinois. Vice President JD Vance vowed to keep fighting in court, while Gov. JB Pritzker welcomed rulings keeping troops off city streets. The legal tug-of-war unfolded as the Chicago Marathon drew more than 53,000 runners and 1.7 million spectators, with ICE saying it avoids operations at public events. Community organizers voiced concern for runners outside the race itself.
