Judge Blocks Trump’s Portland Guard Deployment Amid Antifa Violence; ICE Targeted In Chicago Vehicle-Ramming Attack
A federal judge has temporarily blocked the Trump administration from deploying roughly 200 Oregon National Guard troops to Portland, halting plans to protect federal assets and personnel amid Antifa-linked attacks on an ICE facility in the southern part of the metro area. Meanwhile, the White House is preparing to send up to 300 Guard troops to crime-ridden Chicago to combat left-wing agitators and assist federal efforts to deport criminal illegal aliens amid attacks over the weekend.
U.S. District Judge Karin Immergut stated on Saturday that there was “no evidence” that protests in the city amounted to a rebellion or significantly hindered law enforcement, and that the White House’s justification was “untethered to the facts,” according to Reuters. The injunction will remain in place until at least October 18, pending further litigation.
“The President’s determination was simply untethered to the facts,” Immergut wrote.
What are the facts, Immergut?
Here are some of the latest:

White House spokeswoman Abigail Jackson told Reuters, “President Trump exercised his lawful authority to protect federal assets and personnel in Portland following violent riots and attacks on law enforcement — we expect to be vindicated by a higher court.”
The White House filed a notice of appeal to the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals late Saturday night.
Portland Mayor Keith Wilson told reporters that his city was peaceful and “this narrative was manufactured.”
Yet local police appear to be protecting domestic terrorists, such as Antifa warriors, while arresting journalists and conservatives:
What Democrats fear…
Oregon’s Democratic Attorney General Dan Rayfield filed the lawsuit after Trump announced plans to deploy troops to Portland to “protect federal immigration facilities from domestic terrorists.”
The state argued the action unlawfully seized control of its National Guard and violated the 10th Amendment, emphasizing that Portland’s protests have been peaceful. Immergut agreed that Oregon is likely to prevail, warning that Trump’s legal approach could allow a president to deploy troops “virtually anywhere at any time,” thereby undermining the separation of civil and military authority.
Meanwhile, leftist Gov. JB Pritzker of Illinois on Saturday warned that President Trump was preparing to send 300 Guard troops to Chicago in the very near term.
And take a look at the chaos just yesterday in the crime-ridden sanctuary city…

Kristi Noem, the Secretary of Homeland Security, wrote on X, “Today in Chicago, members of our brave law enforcement were attacked—rammed and boxed in by ten vehicles, including an attacker with a semi-automatic weapon. I am deploying more special operations to control the scene. Reinforcements are on their way. If you see a law enforcement officer today, thank them.”
