The mayor of Chicago said Tuesday that the Trump administration won’t deploy unnamed federal Department of Homeland Security agents to Chicago, as seen in Portland recently.

“What I understand at this point, and I caveat that, is that the Trump administration is not going to foolishly deploy unnamed agents to the streets of Chicago,” Mayor Lori Lightfoot told reporters on Tuesday. “We have information that allows us to say, at least at this point, that we don’t see a Portland-style deployment coming to Chicago.”
