In addition to their national defense duties, Americans rely on our National Guard to fight wildfires and respond to other natural disasters.

Donald Trump's weaponization of the Guard and deployments to American cities erodes that trust, and makes us less prepared when they are most needed.

'Military-Style' ICE Raid In Chicago Shows Escalation in Tactics Witnesses said children were taken from their homes unclothed and separated from their parents during the raid.

"..armed federal agents rappelled from helicopters onto the roof of a..residential apartment in..Chicago. The agents worked their way through the building, kicking down doors and throwing flash bang grenades, rounding up adults and screaming children alike.."

House GOP vacationing with pay during shutdown,& news outlets report Trump playing golf. Meanwhile, hard-working Americans like air traffic controllers,TSA,park Rangers, & military etc. out of luck.
GOP: get back to work, fix the healthcare tax credits and open the government. Not that hard.

Fed Employees deemed โ€œessentialโ€ by administration will work without pay and
will eventually be paid once shutdown ends. Others
will need legislation passed by Congress
and signed by President to get pay. Congress has always done this, but I canโ€™t predict what this congress or President will do.

Trumpโ€™s ICE goons must be real proud that they ripped children out of their beds, traumatizing them and tying them up. Anyone doing this is a coward and a criminal. And Stephen Miller says the Trump judge who stopped National Guard in
Portland is an insurrectionist. No YOU are Stephen. You are.

I visited the apartment building ICE raided on Tuesday today. Story to come, but you can walk right in. Half of the apartments have no doors on them. Children's stuff abandoned in some flats. *Citizen* residents told me they were arrested and held for hours in zipties. This is America

The brave men and women who serve in our national guards must not be used as political props. This is a moment where every American must speak up and help stop this madness.

โ€‹I call on Governor Abbott to immediately withdraw any support for this decision and refuse to coordinate. There is no reason a President should send military troops into a sovereign state without their knowledge, consent, or cooperation.

We must now start calling this what it is: Trumpโ€™s Invasion. It started with federal agents, it will soon include deploying federalized members of the Illinois National Guard against our wishes, and it will now involve sending in another stateโ€™s military troops.
