After a frenzied 24 hours during which Mayor Lori Lightfoot threatened to sue if President Donald Trump tried to send federal agents into Chicago without her permission, she acknowledged Tuesday that the city would be working with federal agents to fight crime but warned that her administration would be vigilant against abuses of power.

In recent weeks, Lightfoot repeatedly has questioned the sincerity of Trump’s offer to help Chicago and denounced his response to George Floyd’s killing by a Minneapolis police officer.
“What I really want to say to Donald Trump … begins with F and it ends with U,” she said in May after Floyd was killed.

But an official with knowledge of the situation said Tuesday the Trump administration plans to send 150 agents to Chicago, with about 75 coming from HSI and the rest coming from other federal agencies.
They’ll largely be working on drug cases that are fueling crime, the official said, adding that the city wouldn’t be worried about the group of feds coming in if the situation with Portland weren’t happening.

The far left has no qualms about limited, enumerated powers when the Second Amendment is involved...or the First...on college campuses or in the streets of America...when a MAGA cap is involved.
Under the Insurrection Act of 1807, a president can deploy troops anywhere in the United States under a specific scenario.
“Whenever the President considers that unlawful obstructions, combinations, or assemblages, or rebellion against the authority of the United States make it impracticable to enforce the laws of the United States in any State by the ordinary course of judicial proceedings,” the act reads, “he may call into Federal service such of the militia of any State.”

When Democrat mayors and city politicians are in a conspiracy to allow anarchy to continue, the president has the authority to act...and he is, whether the left wants it or not.
The mayor of Chicago may not welcome a dictatorship, but she surely welcomes anarchy and slaughter in the streets.

Wound’t it be Cool if Trump Sent the Feds to the GANG RIDDLED West or South Side of Chicago, rather than standing around a Building that no one gives a shit about nor where there’s any protesting?
Not that would be impressive ...
