Hundreds of National Guard troops have arrived in Chicago to support President Trump's immigration crackdown, amid opposition from local officials. Guard members from Texas have set up temporary living quarters at an army training center outside the city to assist federal officers and protect property. Trump argues the troops are necessary to quell violence, crack down on crime, and support deportation initiatives in cities like Chicago, where protests against immigration enforcement have escalated.
