December 23, 2025Dec 23 Supreme Court won’t allow National Guard deployment to Chicago in major loss for Trump 12/23/25 3:35 PM ET The Supreme Court on Tuesday ruled President Trump may not deploy the National Guard to the Chicago area for now amid his push for military troops to patrol the streets of Democratic-led cities, a major loss for the president at the high court. After more than two months of consideration, the court refused to pause a district judge’s ruling temporarily blocking hundreds of National Guard members from being federalized and deployed across Illinois, rejecting the government’s emergency request. “At this preliminary stage, the Government has failed to identify a source of authority that would allow the military to execute the laws in Illinois,” the unsigned order reads. Justices Clarence Thomas, Samuel Alito and Neil Gorsuch dissented. https://thehill.com/regulation/court-battles/5661555-supreme-court-blocks-trump-guard/

December 23, 2025Dec 23 It was all just a political stunt anyways. They got all the mileage they wanted out of it. The Supremes know that, otherwise they could have made a decision much sooner.
