US judge says she will block Trump's deployment of National Guard in Chicago

CHICAGO (Reuters) -A federal judge in Chicago on Thursday said she would temporarily block U.S. President Donald Trump's deployment of hundreds of National Guard soldiers in Illinois, five days after another U.S. judge blocked a similar deployment in Portland, Oregon. U.S. District Judge April Perry's decision followed more than two hours of arguments from lawyers for the U.S. government and the state of Illinois, which sued the Trump administration over the deployment.
