Illinois Senator Dick Durbin is condemning a plan, attributed to the Trump administration, to deploy 100-thousand National Guard troops to detain undocumented immigrants.
Durbin says the preliminary plan would be a frightening exercise of police state tactics and a heavy-handed assault on innocent people. The White House is denying published reports that the plan is being considered, and the Department of Homeland Security called it a very early draft that was not taken seriously.
