Pritzker revealed 400 members of the Texas National Guard will be deployed to Illinois and Oregon , among other locations, to deal with anti-ICE protesters and Trump's war on crime.

Democratic Gov. JB Pritzker called the move unnecessary and “a manufactured performance — not a serious effort to protect public safety.”

Illinois Gov. JB Pritzker said the Trump administration has threatened to bypass him and call up the state's National Guard for a possible deployment.
