just a BRIEF period of martial law
instituted by a guy who will get immediately prosecuted once he leaves office
what could go wrong
Y'all know he can't deploy the military without request of the governor, right? Only in DC and various territories.
Nation has been under National Emergency for some time. POTUS can, legally, deploy the Military. Thought you should know.
this
you are so wrong, RHO
"The statute does allow for the deployment of federal troops to coordinate disaster response and provide relief efforts, but troops deployed under this statute do not have any law enforcement authority."
Ok. Kinda wrong, but kinda not.
The Insurrection Act is brief. It allows the president, at the request of a state government, to federalize the National Guard and to use the remainder of the Armed Forces to suppress an insurrection against that state's government. It further allows for the president to do the same in a state without the explicit consent of a state's government if it becomes impracticable to enforce federal laws through ordinary proceedings or if states are unable to safeguard its inhabitants' civil rights.
Yeah, that's what the guy with the bow and arrow thought. Didn't turn out too good for him.
Insurrection Act - Wikipedia Insurrection Act of 1807, disorder, insurrection, and rebellion.
you were saying?
Not there yet. Also, look at you, cheering for the government to deploy the military against the will of a state. Small government ftw.
