Washington DC, on a call earlier today the president told governors earlier that many of them were appearing “weak.”
National Guard troops were deployed near the White House Monday evening hours after President Donald Trump said he wanted a military show of force against violent protests gripping the nation. Shortly after, Trump came to the White House Rose Garden to call himself the “law and order” president, saying “domestic terrorism” was to blame for the unrest. “We will it end it now,” Trump said, calling on governors to “dominate the streets.” Saying we are a nation of laws, the President repeated hat he would deploy the United States active duty military if governors failed to use the National Guard more forcefully.
The President said he may invoke the 1807 Insurrection Act, which permits a president to deploy military inside the U.S. to deal with civil disorder.President repeat that what had happened last night was “disgraceful”, National Guard troops will be protecting national monuments, the White House, property, and infrastructure in DC.
ABC news reported that Joint Chiefs Chairman Gen. Mark Milley and Attorney General William Barr were seen walking near the police line in Lafayette Park as military vehicles were stationed nearby.
I think it’s more about the protests, if these shitheads would stop vandalizing property and do it in peace it wouldn’t be a problem. Every state should bring out the military and the story. You do damage to personal property you’re done. No one can condone that, if you do it you’re a real jack ass
Armed federal troops in a domestic law enforcement situation is not good…. Under the Civil War-era Posse Comitatus Act, federal troops are prohibited from performing domestic law enforcement actions such as making arrests, seizing property or searching people. The 2nd amendment insures that the federal army can be kept in check by state militias, even Bunker Boy’s AG understands that!
It’s about time that someone with balls is putting an end to this crap. You liberal assholes and your god Obama are the EXACT reason we’re in this position today.
Good !!
The guy can’t even hold a Bible up correctly for his photo-op. . .he had it upside down and back cover facing out. You want this guy running the country?
Outstanding. The order of the day should be if you riot, assault people, steal property and burn buildings you will be shot and if you live you will be arrested.
By the way the Posse Comitatus Act does NOT apply to the States National Guard.
Every state should have the National Guard out right now. And if anyone glutes, steals, or destroys property will be arrested. All I know is if someone comes by my house my property it does damage I’ll kick the shit out of them. And if that’s all that happens to them they’re lucky. Because if it was my father He would put a bullet right in your ass and her story. Just like many other fathers would do. Grow up and stop being a pussy
Stay classy “oh yes”
