Johnson: "He has defunded our education system. He has defunded our transportation system. He's firing black women across this country. He's defunding our healthcare system. This president is absolutely out of control... Chicago is going to stand firm in protecting humanity."

It's not normal for an American president to send troops to American cities in times of peace.

Chicago, document what you see and be loud for America.

Ohio sending 150 National Guard members to Washington as Trump expands control of D.C. Policing The deployment, announced in a statement from DeWine’s office, comes at the request of the U.S. Army.

Ohio has no business getting involved in Trump's attempts to take over cities. Dewine likes to say he is rational but, in the end, does as MAGA tells him.
