Soon after,White House Deputy Chief of Staff Stephen Miller called on the full power of the federal government to dismantle leftwing terrorism, saying it's the only remedy for what ails the United States."
"Pritzker said he does not buy it. Rather than make Chicago safer, the governor said Trump wants to cause havoc. The Trump Administration is following a playbook: cause chaos, create fear and confusion, make it seem like peaceful protestors are a mob by firing gas pellets and tear gas canisters at them. Why? To create the pretext for invoking the Insurrection Act, so he can send military troops to our city. You can watch his comments above, via MSNBC."

More than a dozen people were arrested at a Broadview anti-ICE protest, and Fox News reported agents firing pepper balls, tear gas, and rubber bullets to clear crowds at an ICE processing facility. Federal agents were later rammed and boxed in by ten cars, including a woman armed with a semi-automatic gun who posted online she wanted to f*ck up' ICE.' White House Deputy Chief of Staff Stephen Miller urged full federal power to dismantle leftwing terrorism. President Trump vowed to send troops to Chicago after a deadly Labor Day weekend shooting surge.
