On Saturday, a federal appeals court blocked the Trump administration from deploying federalized National Guard troops in Illinois.

About 45 troops arrived late Wednesday, officials confirmed.

National Guard troops from Illinois and Texas have been tasked with protecting federal government employees such as Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents, and federal property.

Trump on Wednesday morning wrote on Truth Social, “Chicago Mayor should be in jail for failing to protect Ice Officers! Governor Pritzker also!”

Military troops arrived at an Elwood training center after weeks of threats from President Donald Trump’s administration, over the objections of local leaders.

Body-camera video appears to contradict the government’s claim that Marimar Martinez drove toward officers before one of them opened fire at her Saturday morning in Brighton Park, her attorney alleged.

President Trump is bucking tradition and legal precedent in pushing to deploy the National Guard to Democratic-led cities like Portland, Ore., and Chicago due to what he says is rampant crime and to support his crackdown on illegal immigration.

A federal judge said Monday she wouldn’t hear arguments over Illinois’ bid to block the deployment until Thursday, even after a Trump administration lawyer confirmed that Texas troops are on their way.
