It sounds suspiciously like a declaration of war against Chicago? Thoughts? Extrapolating this out would this be considered a declaration of war against blue states? Is this a civil war? Thoughts

Trump threatens Chicago with "Department of WAR" ahead of planned crackdown The President posted a parody meme threatening the city, which is bracing for expanded ICE raids.

www.axios.com/2025/09/06/t...
Trump stated he will attack Chicago.it sounds as if he (trump) is declaring war. Since he is only singling out blue states is trumps declaration an announcement of official civil war?

If the president tries to send troops into Oregon to police our communities, we will not hesitate to take action in court.

Oregon is a safe place, and we intend to keep it that way. The president may have a lot of power, but he has to stay in his lane. #orpol

There is no intent by the oversight committee to do criminal referrals. Furthermore, treasury is sitting on over 4K wire transfers from russia to Epstein which is probably the largest money laundering in our history
This is the largest political coverup in our history

STATEMENT: Chair Jessica Vega Pederson responds to President Donald Trump’s threats to send military to Portland 

 We’ve seen this before. President Trump wasting your tax dollars to attack  
 cities who value diversity and stand up for our immigrant and refugee 
 neighbors. 

 It’s uncalled for and unnecessary. Recent reports show that Portland has 
 seen a rapid decline in homicides and other violent crime this year, and 
 crime has been trending downward overall for multiple years.

 If the President truly wanted to help Portland and Multnomah County, he 
 would reverse his callous cuts to public health and safety net services like 
 Medicaid β€” decisions that harm people in red and blue states alike. The 
 President’s policies are supercharging an affordability crisis that is hitting 
 us hard locally, raising the cost of food, housing and medicine for   
 thousands of our residents.
