Albuquerque, NM (KKOB) –Texas Gov. Greg Abbott tweeted a picture of several Texas National Guard members – outfitted in fatigues, helmets and handheld shields – boarding a military aircraft in Fort Bliss, Texas – their destination Chicago. The deployment comes after Illinois and the city of Chicago sued the Trump administration earlier Monday, calling the plans to move troops from the Illinois and Texas National Guards into Chicago “illegal, dangerous, and unconstitutional.” A federal judge has given the administration two days to respond to the lawsuit, but she didn’t immediately block the deployment.
