Thousands flooded Washington D.C. streets this weekend, chanting and waving signs to oppose President Trump's deployment of National Guard troops in the capital. The fiery demonstration comes as tensions rise over federal interventions in urban areas 🏙️✊.
Protesters called the military presence 'unnecessary escalation,' with one organizer telling crowds: 'This isn’t a warzone – it’s our community.' Meanwhile, Trump doubled down on social media, threatening Chicago with migrant deportations alongside a meme-style poster parodying Apocalypse Now 🔥🎥.
The move follows Trump’s vow to 'restore order' in Democratic-led cities through federal force. Critics argue the strategy inflames tensions rather than addressing root causes. As night fell, the scene remained peaceful – but the political temperature keeps rising 📈⚖️.
