Part 3/16:
Chicago Mayor Lori Lightfoot and Illinois Governor JB Pritzker have voiced strong opposition to the federal intervention. Pritzker explicitly criticized the deployment, comparing it to the early days of the Nazi regime, alleging that the use of military force in American cities echoes authoritarian tactics. His statement emphasized that it is wrong to deploy military personnel or armed agents dressed in camouflage into domestic urban settings, framing it as an alarming overreach and a threat to civil liberties.
