  • Can Trump call the National Guard into Chicago too?

    Can Trump call the National Guard into Chicago too?
    Aug 26 2025
    For over two weeks, members of the National Guard have been walking the streets of Washington, D.C. -- alongside federal law enforcement and local police.

    President Trump has said there is a “crime emergency” in the nation’s capital -- and has openly hinted at taking similar actions in other Democratic-led cities like Chicago, New York and Baltimore.

    But while the president has unique authorities over the District of Columbia, federalizing the National Guard in U.S. states will require a higher legal standard.

  • What a day in immigration court is like now

    Aug 25 2025

    The process is often chaotic. And for immigrants without legal status, it's also very risky.

    NPR immigration policy reporter Ximena Bustillo went to an immigration court in New York City to see how that process unfolds – and found herself experiencing some of the chaos firsthand.
