You would be going through normal security for anyone departing from ORD, which is reported to have long lines like many places.
If possible, adding a connection in DUB or YYZ/YUL, where you would preclear both US customs/immigration and security, would be your safest bet at the moment.
Though if things get bad enough the issues may be over by next week, who knows.
