Geee Posted July 21, 2020 Share Posted July 21, 2020 Federal agents will deploy to Chicago as part of anti-violence effort; Mayor Lightfoot pushes back against President Trump CHICAGO (WLS) -- President Donald Trump is planning to send federal agents to Chicago and Mayor Lori Lightfoot has pushed back against the plan in a letter to the president.The Trump administration says this move is about controlling the city's violence. But in Portland-Oregon federal agents are behind a crack-down on protesters. Officials with The Department of Justice tell the ABC7 I-Team the plan to send federal agents here would not involve engaging with protesters. It would mainly be in response to shootings and street violence. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Geee Posted July 23, 2020 Share Posted July 23, 2020 Chicago Mayor Lori Lightfoot Grudgingly Accepts Federal Law Enforcement Help Chicago Mayor Lori Lightfoot has accepted President Donald Trump’s offer of federal law enforcement officials to help fight crime in Chicago — but says they must not patrol protests, as federal officials are doing in Portland, Oregon. President Trump and Mayor Lightfoot spoke Wednesday evening, after the administration announced that it would surge federal law enforcement agents to Chicago and other cities suffering from a wave of violent crime in the wake of Black Lives Matter protests. The protests have prompted police to scale back patrols — in some cases at the behest of politicians. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Valin Posted July 29, 2020 Author Share Posted July 29, 2020 7 arrests, 1 officer hurt after melee during Tempe protest Tuesday, July 28, 2020 TEMPE, Ariz. (AP) — Authorities say seven people were arrested after a Tempe Black Lives Matter protest turned chaotic. A demonstration in downtown Tempe Monday night started out peacefully. But then protesters got into an altercation with a small group of counter-protesters, according to police. One member of one group assaulted someone in the opposing group and an arrest was made. After that, Tempe police say the roughly 150 protesters continued onto Scottsdale Road and illegally blocked traffic in all directions. The scene turned more confrontational once officers ordered protesters to get off the roadway.
