Guard Troops Pulled from US Cities

It’s official: National Guard troops have been quietly withdrawn from Los Angeles, Chicago, and Portland, Oregon. This move comes after President Donald Trump’s attempts to flex his muscles in these cities hit repeated roadblocks.

Legal Setbacks Galore

Trump’s show of force didn’t quite go as planned. The deployments were stymied by a string of legal setbacks, leaving the president’s tough-guy act looking more like a bad joke.
It’s no surprise, really. The whole thing reeked of a publicity stunt from the start. And now, it’s clear that Trump’s plan to use the National Guard as a political prop has backfired big time.
