The #Army placed the units on prepare-to-deploy orders in case “violence” in #Minnesota escalates, officials said, characterizing the move as “prudent planning.” It is not clear whether any of them will be sent to the state, the officials said, speaking like some others on the condition of anonymity to discuss sensitive #military planning.

A federal appeals court in Washington ruled Wednesday that the #NationalGuard in #WashingtonDC since August by #Trump could remain while the court considered the legality of the deployment.
The decision prolongs Trump’s most expansive effort so far to use the#military to #police a #Democratic city, after smaller deployments in several states were halted or wound down, as a result of orders by federal judges around the #US.

Agents issued one warning about #TearGas but did not deploy it. They fired #PepperBalls instead toward #demonstrators before #Chicago police arrived & cleared the roadway, allowing the vehicles with agents & detainees to leave.
Ald. Rossana Rodriguez-Sanchez (33rd) was holding a staff meeting in her ward office around the corner when she heard whistles & ran out the door.

A reporter spotted one agent without a #BodyCamera. Another agent used a GoPro camera in addition to a body camera. Some agents had numbered identifiers on patches on their uniforms. Others had identifying numbers written on tape.
The Sun-Times reported Friday that several federal #immigration agents have not worn identifying information, against a judge’s order.

#Military experts said the #Trump administration’s moves hearken back to an earlier era when #NationalGuard troops were frequently deployed to *quell* #protests & *disturbances*, such as the 1970 #KentState shooting in which 4 unarmed college students were killed by the Ohio national guard.

In one contract that #ICE signed last month for #Clearview #AI facial recognition software, the agency said in a filing that it would be used to investigate “assaults against law enforcement officers.” Other federal contracts show ICE has been expanding its fleet of small, remote-controlled drones, which it has said it is using to film #protesters.

A temporary restraining order [#TRO] issued by a federal judge last week requires agents to issue 2 warnings before using riot control weapons such as tear gas, chemical sprays, plastic bullets & flash bangs. The order also bars firing at #protesters, #reporters & #clergy members & limits using #force such as tackling — unless the person represents an immediate threat.

Judge Perry has handed a draft of her written #CourtOrder to both sides & left the bench. She's letting them look at it until she returns.
We still don't know the exact details of her order. She said she's granting the #TRO "in part," which indicates some part of it is also being denied. Stay tuned.

Hamilton wants Perry to treat this as a preliminary injunction [#PI] hearing, not a #TRO hearing. He's asking that any injunction be narrowly tailored.
Hamilton: "No injunction should issue against the president of the United States, the Department of Homeland Security or Secretary Noem."
And, Hamilton asks for a stay of any injunction.

But Wells cites a quote in that ruling that mentions "public virtue."
"It's easy to just look past that term," he says.
Wells: "This case is replete with evidence of #BadFaith, of an abandonment of public virtue, of a lack of honest devotion to the public interest & of a grave risk of #usurpation or wanton #tyranny."

#Chicago Mayor #BrandonJohnson entered the courtroom.
Judge Perry notes “we haven't talked about the words 'regular forces,'”which appear in the #law. She pushes #DOJ atty Hamilton for a definition.
Hamilton: "I think it's a reference to the status quo.
Perry quotes from a filing that says, on 9/29, the AG “directed ATF, Marshals, DEA & FBI to direct all necessary officers & agents to defend ICE facilities & personnel.”

“To people who are scared, who are detained, we are fighting for you,” said Meredith Shoemaker, a 19-year-old Loyola University #Chicago student who marched downtown. “We don’t support what is happening.”

The judge said it “is a miracle to me that no one was more seriously injured” in the incident in which Martinez & Ruiz allegedly followed agents for more than 20 mins as they drove after conducting an operation in Oak Lawn. But she said the defendants’ lack of criminal history & extensive family & community ties compelled her to release them pending trial.

Body-camera video appears to contradict the government’s claim that Marimar Martinez, 30, drove toward officers before one of them opened fire at her late Saturday morning in Brighton Park, her attorney claimed. A judge ordered Martinez & a co-defendant released pending trial.

Mayor #BrandonJohnson of #Chicago said Monday morning that he would issue an executive order establishing “ICE-free zones,” which would ban federal #immigration agents from setting up staging areas on city property or private businesses without a #warrant.
“We cannot allow them to rampage through our city with no checks or balances,” Johnson said of federal agents. “If #Congress will not check this administration, then Chicago will.”

Kotek, the governor of #Oregon, applauded Immergut’s ruling & said #Trump can “expect Oregon to stand up to him at every turn.”
“President Trump’s actions are an effort to #occupy & #incite cities & states that don’t share his politics, & I believe that we should expect him to continue to push the limits of his authority,” she said in a statement late Sunday.
