So are we doing the insurrection act early then ?
-
You gotta pick up where the season finale ended.
-
The gambit is that if you declare border land a "military installation", that means troops can patrol that land and arrest migrants as "trespassers on a military base" without having to declare martial law or any of that messy "posse comitatus" stuff. Of course captives are handed off to ICE immediately and who knows what happens from there.
-
We already know what happens.
-
I wonder if that's genuinely the plan. Martial law would be far too messy and logistically impossible. So they just send the military there to show boat for a little while then say the country is saved so Trump can go back to golfing or smth.
-
I wish any fascist was this willing to only show boat, don't get confused, when they say they hate illegals and you can tell whos illegal by looking at them, they aren't being coy, or joking, or messaging, they want us dead.
