The mayor of a small town outside of Chicago on Tuesday insisted her community doesn\u2019t want National Guard<\/a> troops deployed to the area after weeks of protesters clashing with U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) officials.<\/p>\n

Katrina Thompson, the mayor of Broadview, a village with a population of under 8,000 just west of downtown Chicago, held a press conference Tuesday about the federal presence in the town, emphatically saying, “We don’t want them here.”<\/p>\n

“We don’t need them,” Thompson later told WLS-TV<\/a> in an interview. “We can govern ourselves, and we have been doing that until this point.”<\/p>\n

Thompson\u2019s remarks come after multiple suggestions from President Donald Trump that the Chicago area could benefit from having National Guard troops. Trump even told senior U.S. military officers at Marine Corps Base Quantico in Virginia on Tuesday that the National Guard would be “going into Chicago very soon.”<\/p>\n

The Trump administration<\/a> has already deployed the National Guard to cities such as Los Angeles and Washington, D.C., to address crime and assist with deportations.<\/p>\n

Thompson claimed protesters had been “peaceful” and mostly lobbed verbal insults at agents in Broadview despite clashes with ICE agents<\/a> that resulted in multiple people being arrested and charged with assaulting federal officers.<\/p>\n

“That happens to me all the time, and I don’t go out and throw tear gas on people,” Thompson told the outlet.<\/p>\n

ICE responded to Thompson in a statement on Tuesday, saying the mayor “can either continue to be part of the problem or choose to be part of the solution by directing your police to enforce local ordinances and working with us to remove violent offenders.”<\/p>\n

“Mayor Thompson is distorting reality, pointing her finger in the wrong direction, while our officers are protecting her community \u2014 and others \u2014 from real threats, while also facing skyrocketing violence against them, including at the Broadview facility,” ICE said.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
