Overview

• The White House authorized 300 federalized National Guard members for Chicago to protect federal personnel and assets, over Gov. J.B. Pritzker’s objections.
• DHS says Border Patrol agents fired “defensive” shots after vehicles boxed them in; the wounded driver, identified as Marimar Martínez, was treated and is now in FBI custody.
• U.S. District Judge Karin J. Immergut issued a temporary restraining order halting the Portland federalization, finding Oregon is likely to show the president exceeded his authority and that protests did not meet an insurrection threshold.
• The administration filed an immediate appeal to the Ninth Circuit, and Oregon officials plan to seek an extension of the 14-day order.
• California Gov. Gavin Newsom said about 300 California Guard members under federal control are being redirected to Oregon, and Democratic leaders in Oregon and Illinois condemned the deployments as unconstitutional or political.
