Trump and the White House announced Thursday that federal agents will deploy to Chicago; Albuquerque, New Mexico; Cleveland; Detroit; and Milwaukee to combat rising crime.Evers, a Democrat, sent Trump a letter on Wednesday saying he was “deeply disturbed” to hear White House Chief of Staff Mark Meadows say in a television interview Sunday that agents might travel to Milwaukee without any direct communication with his office.
