       A federal judge in #Chicago is now hearing arguments over whether to block the #Trump admin’s deployment of #NationalGuard troops into #Illinois. The hearing comes after National Guard troops could be seen on the ground near the Broadview #ICE facility Thursday morning.#law #immigration #RightToProtest #PosseComitatusAct #MilitaryState #MartialLaw #Gestapo #authoritarianism #autocracy #fascism #tyranny https://chicago.suntimes.com/live/2025/10/09/national-guard-lawsuit-judge-ruling-illinois-trump

       As soon as Friday, #NationalGuard units mobilized by #Trump could appear at the Dirksen Federal Courthouse unless US District April Perry issues a temporary restraining order blocking their deployment.But early today, Chief District Court Judge Virginia M. Kendall made clear she did not see a need for Guard units to be stationed outside the federal courthouse.#Chicago #law #immigration #PosseComitatusAct #MilitaryState #MartialLaw

       Christopher Wells opened his arguments for a temporary restraining order against #Trump with a look back to the country’s #founders.“Rebellion. Invasion. Insurrection. War. These are heavy words,” Wells told U.S. District Judge April Perry. “The people who wrote our #constitution understood the weight of these words. The people who wrote our constitution had lived these words.”#Chicago #law #NationalGuard #PosseComitatusAct #MilitaryState #MartialLaw

       The federal #immigration enforcementaction known as Operation Midway Blitz has boasted of 1,000 arrests, but Wells said there is no justification to warrant Trump’s deployment of #NationalGuard units to help with that task.“Where exactly is the problem?” he asked. “Where in #Illinois are conditions so severe the president is unable to enforce federal law?”#Trump #Chicago #law #PosseComitatusAct #MilitaryState #MartialLaw

       “Troops are here. Tomorrow, they’re being sent to this courthouse,” Wells told Judge Perry.“Take the president at his word, when it has been unfiltered by his attorney,” Wells said. “Because of the president’s words, what the president has done to #Illinois is illegal & lawless.”#Trump #Chicago #law #NationalGuard #PosseComitatusAct #MilitaryState #MartialLaw

       #DOJ atty argues #Trump’s decision to deploy troops to #Illinois is ‘unreviewable’The federal govt atty justified Trump’s deployment of the #NationalGuard to IL saying #Chicago is experiencing a “brazen new form of hostility from rioters targeting federal law enforcement.”DOJ atty Eric Hamilton told Judge Perry that those objecting to the actions of federal #immigration enforcement agents are “not protesters. They are the violent resistance to duly enacted immigration laws.”#law

       Hamilton pointed to different examples of alleged violence against federal agents & said that was the basis for the mobilization of #NationalGuard units. Federal #law allows that, he said, if there is “either a rebellion or a danger of a rebellion.”Hamilton called Trump’s decision to send in troops “unreviewable” & denied #Illinois’ claim that the deployment is in retaliation to the #sanctuary status of #Illinois & #Chicago.#Trump #law #PosseComitatusAct #MilitaryState #MartialLaw

       “This federalization happened to respond to an urgent & serious ongoing threat to officer safety & to the protection of property,” Hamilton said.After opening arguments, U.S. District Judge April Perry pressed the #DOJ lawyer on whether the #NationalGuard deployment that appears now to exceed 500 troops could increase & exactly what their duties would be.#Trump #Chicago #law #PosseComitatusAct #MilitaryState #MartialLaw

       Judge Perry also asked Hamilton what the troops would do.He said they would “provide protection” but in a way that’s “distinct from law enforcement.” They would not be authorized to make arrests, he said.Perry pressed Hamilton on whether troops would be “solving crime in Chicago,” & he answered, “Certainly, to an extent.”#Trump #Chicago #law #NationalGuard #PosseComitatusAct #MilitaryState #MartialLaw

       The judge zeroed in on the case of Ray Collins & Jocelyne Robledo, protestors at the Broadview #ICE facility who were arrested while each was legally carrying a gun. In an unusual move, a federal grand jury refused to indict the couple.The couple’s arrest was used, in part, as a justification by the #Trump admin for #NationalGuard units to help protect federal agents on the ground in the #Chicago area.#FactCheck #TrumpLies #law #PosseComitatusAct #MilitaryState #MartialLaw

       Judge Perry asked #DOJ lawyer Eric Hamilton whether Trump’s *perceived* inability to execute the law – a justification needed for #Trump to mobilize the #NationalGuard under federal law – was something “caused by the federal agents.”Hamilton: “No, your honor.”Perry then observed that the #Broadview #immigration processing facility had been the site of “nothing but #peaceful prayer vigils” for 19 years. “And then,” Perry said, “#CBP shows up & then suddenly things take a turn for the worse.”

       Perry asked Hamilton whether the feds’ provoking protestors to the point federal law is unenforceable is something to be weighed under the National Guard mobilization law.“No,” Hamilton said. “If that were true, the fact still remains that we are seeing sustained violence against federal personnel & property in Illinois.”#FactCheck #TrumpLies #Trump #Chicago #law #NationalGuard #PosseComitatusAct #MilitaryState #MartialLaw

       Singling out examples of violence the feds provided – claims of “slashed tires” & “keyed cars” – the judge said, “Some of this frankly sounds like a Carrie Underwood song.”Hamilton shot back: “This is no Carrie Underwood song.”He pointed to more serious incidents, including the claim of a bomb.Perry asked what was in that alleged device, & Hamilton responded, “I don’t know.”#FactCheck #TrumpLies #Trump #Chicago #law #NationalGuard #PosseComitatusAct #MilitaryState #MartialLaw

       Judge Perry & Wells have been discussing whether the president "has to tell you what [law] he's relying on" when he deploys the #NationalGuard.Wells explains to Perry that, the problem is, "you don't know what you're deferring to in the first instance. And then, you don't know the kind of evidentiary basis for the adequacy of that determination. That, I think, is one of the fundamental problems."#Trump #Chicago #law #PosseComitatusAct #MilitaryState #MartialLaw

       Nice!U.S. District Judge April Perry says it comes down to a "#credibility determination.""I simply cannot credit [the #Trump administration's] declarations to the extent they contradict state & local law enforcement. … #DHS' perception of events are simply #unreliable."[Hell yeah they are]#Chicago #law #NationalGuard #PosseComitatusAct #MilitaryState #MartialLaw #immigration #FreedomOfAssembly #RightToProtest #Gestapo #authoritarianism #autocracy #tyranny #WhiteSupremacy

       Judge Perry cites other fed prosecutions/lawsuits in #Chicago & says "in the last 48 hours, in 4 separate unrelated legal decision from different neutral parties, they all cast significant doubt on #DHS' #credibility & assessment of what is happening on the streets of Chicago."#Trump #law #NationalGuard #PosseComitatusAct #MilitaryState #MartialLaw

       Judge Perry is now taking on the idea that Trump's decision is not subject to judicial review.👏She says 10 USC 12406 permits federalization of guard troops in 3 instances, "not whenever *he* determines when one of them is met," Perry says.#Trump #law #judiciary #NationalGuard #PosseComitatusAct #MilitaryState #MartialLaw #authoritarianism #autocracy #dictatorship #fascism #tyranny

       On the idea of “deference” to the president, Judge Perry acknowledges that when it comes to #NationalSecurity, "the executive is better suited to evaluate the precise nature of the threat."However . . .Perry: "I have seen no credible evidence that there is danger of rebellion in the state of #Illinois."Damn straight.#Trump #Chicago #law #judiciary #NationalGuard #PosseComitatusAct #MilitaryState #MartialLaw #authoritarianism #autocracy #dictatorship #fascism #tyranny

       Judge Perry: "Deportations are up. Arrests are up. … The courthouse remains open & always has. Federal laws are being executed. They're also being broken, as they have been since the beginning of time."Perry: "There is no evidence that the president is unable, with the regular forces [meaning state/city/local LEOs], to execute the laws of the United States."#Trump #Chicago #law #judiciary #NationalGuard #PosseComitatusAct #MilitaryState #MartialLaw #immigration #fascism #tyranny

       @Nonilex So what to do about the NG troops he’s already deployed, because he really doesn’t care about what judges say (obviously)?

       Judge Perry goes on to say the deployment of the #NationalGuard is "likely to lead to civil unrest."[ya think?]Perry: "Chicago's history of strained policing community relations is extremely well documented, but also fairly nuanced. … It can be hard for federal authorities, &and certainly those from #Texas, to appreciate."#Trump #Chicago #law #judiciary #PosseComitatusAct #MilitaryState #MartialLaw #authoritarianism #autocracy #dictatorship #fascism #tyranny

       Judge Perry has handed a draft of her written #CourtOrder to both sides & left the bench. She's letting them look at it until she returns.We still don't know the exact details of her order. She said she's granting the #TRO "in part," which indicates some part of it is also being denied. Stay tuned.#Trump #Chicago #law #judiciary #NationalGuard #PosseComitatusAct #MilitaryState #MartialLaw #authoritarianism #autocracy #dictatorship #fascism #tyranny

       Judge Perry is back on the bench.Trump admin lawyers had left the courtroom, though. So now Perry is waiting on them.Christopher Wells from #Illinois tells Perry "we would request the addition of language intended to cover #NationalGuard from other states, or the National Guard of the #UnitedStates."We don't want to get into an #Oregon situation."#Trump #Chicago #law #judiciary #PosseComitatusAct #MilitaryState #MartialLaw #authoritarianism #autocracy #dictatorship #fascism #tyranny

       Judge Perry: "Any reason I can't just say 'National Guard'?"Wells' co-counsel: "You could say 'National Guard of the United States.'"Wells' co-counsel also reminds Perry that members of the #California #NationalGuard are also in #Illinois [wait, I thought it was just #Texas].#Trump #Chicago #law #judiciary #NationalGuard #PosseComitatusAct #MilitaryState #MartialLaw #immigration #fascism #tyranny

       Judge Perry says the order will say defendants are "temporarily enjoined from ordering the federalization and deployment of the National Guard of the United States within Illinois."👏👏👏You have to be very clear with these snakes.#Trump #Chicago #law #judiciary #NationalGuard #PosseComitatusAct #MilitaryState #MartialLaw #immigration #fascism #tyranny

       @leswarden Trump will probably keep them on the Elmwood, IL US Army base but not deployed beyond the base.Or he will totally ignore the court order as he has repeatedly done.Also, he will obviously submit an emergency application to #SCOTUS, his BFFs.
