Trump Orders National Guard Out of Major U.S. Cities

President Donald Trump announced on Wednesday that he will withdraw National Guard troops from Chicago, Los Angeles, and Portland. The declaration was made via a post on the President's social media account. No specific timeline for the removal was provided in the initial statement. The National Guard was deployed to these cities earlier this year. Their mission was to assist local law enforcement during periods of sustained civil unrest and large-scale protests. The decision returns primary responsibility for public safety and protest management to local and state authorities in these metropolitan areas. Reactions from city officials are pending.
