The Pentagon is withdrawing hundreds of National Guard soldiers from Chicago and Portland, Ore., just weeks after President Trump ordered them there over the strenuous objections of state and local leaders, according to two U.S. officials.

Some 200 California National Guard troops who were sent to Portland and another 200 Texas National Guard members who were sent to Chicago will return to their home states beginning as early as Sunday, said the officials, who spoke on the condition of anonymity to discuss the deployments.

The federalized Guard troops arrived in those cities in early October but never deployed into the streets to assist federal law enforcement personnel and protect federal buildings, as the Trump administration envisioned, because of legal challenges that continue to play out in the courts.

With Thanksgiving and Christmas fast approaching and federal court orders putting a hold on the operational deployment of the Guard, top Pentagon officials decided last week to withdraw the out-of-state soldiers, at least for now, rather than have them continue to sit in a costly limbo separated from their families during the holiday season, one U.S. official said.

About 300 Illinois National Guard troops will remain activated in the Chicago area, as will about 100 soldiers from the Oregon National Guard remaining in Portland, the officials said….

A spokesman for the [California]  governor, Izzy Gardon, applauded the decision, but also condemned the deployment, which has gone on since June and has been authorized to extend into next year. Last week, California asked the federal court again to halt the deployment in that state and release the remaining 300 federalized California National Guard troops.

The president “never should have illegally deployed our troops in the first place,” Mr. Gardon said. “We’re glad they’re finally coming home.

It’s long overdue.”….
