After Los Angeles and Washington, Donald Trump wants to use the national guard in Chicago – supposedly to fight crime. It remains unclear what exactly he is up to.
US President Donald Trump has announced an intervention against supposedly sprawling crime in Chicago in the US state of Illinois. “We intervene,” said the Republican in the White House. Trump did not say exactly what he plans to do, how far these plans have thrown, whether the National Guard is used and when the campaign could start.
He has the right because he has the obligation to protect this country, said Trump. This also includes the city of Baltimore (Maryland US state). Both cities are located in states that are led by Democrats.
Who has already gone under Trump 2.0 – or have gone
Susan Monarez, head of the disease protection authority
For a long time, the 50-year-old did not keep himself at the head of the CDC, the Center for Disease Control and Prevention. Just a month after her appointment, the White House Monarez put up the door again because it “does not agree with the president’s agenda”, the official reason. Even if Monarez may look similar, she doesn’t want to clear her post. In contrast to five other high-ranking CDC officials who spoiled at the same time. “Enough is enough,” wrote one of them on X.
The reason for Monarez Abrupte’s end is the creation with her direct superior, Minister of Health Robert F. Kennedy Junior. He is not only an avowed conspiracy theorist, but also a passionate vacceptic – and cuts his authorities together accordingly

Governor is against Donald Trump’s plans
Trump also mentioned that he would be happy if the governor of Illinois, JB Pritzker, would ask him for help for Chicago. However, the President made it clear regardless of this. Pritzker is against Trump’s intervention and accuses him of intimidating political rivals. Chicago would be the third city in which the president intervenes – to Los Angeles and the capital Washington.
