President Donald Trump announced plans to expand the deployment of National Guard troops beyond Washington, D.C., with Chicago and New York being considered as potential sites. The move is part of the administration's efforts to address ongoing protests and unrest in various parts of the country. Trump stated that the decision to expand the National Guard presence would be made in coordination with state and local authorities.
