The Daily Caller’s Amber Athey reported that multiple senior Trump administration officials said President Trump will soon invoke the “tremendous powers” of the act to get rid of illegal aliens leeching off the fat of the land.
“We’re doing the Insurrection Act,” one official said.
Under the Insurrection Act of 1807, the president has the authority to use the National Guard and military in order to combat “unlawful obstruction or rebellion” within U.S. borders. The act was last invoked in 1992 by George H.W. Bush to quell the Los Angeles riots, and was also used by Eisenhower in 1957 to enforce school desegregation in the south.
An official expressed concerns that Trump’s use of the act’s powers would face legal challenges, pointing to the lawsuits against the president’s travel ban from majority-Muslim countries. However, as the official noted, the travel ban ultimately prevailed in the Supreme Court.
In addition to the Insurrection Act, the president is also considering declaring the country full and insisting that the U.S. can no longer handle the massive influx of illegal immigrants. 2019 is currently on pace to reach the highest levels of illegal immigration in a decade.
A record amount of illegal aliens have poured over the US border in 2019.
Approximately 100,000 illegal aliens a month are being apprehended by US Border Patrol.
We need a wall and we need real immigration reform to put an end to insane ‘catch and release’ asylum policies.
There are an estimated 30 million illegal aliens currently living in the Unites States — it’s time to deport them and put America first.

This will happen right after the first prosecution under the Logan Act.

Yay. Not many people realize that they have their own country. They don’t need ours too.
WHO IS FUNDING THEM????????????????
WHO IS FUNDING THEM????????????????
GOOD. - Imo, ALL 20+ MILLION ILLEGALS should be REMOVED from the USA & BANNED from ever returning UNTIL/UNLESS they can return LAWFULLY.

If this gets to the SC then I fully expect traitor Roberts to vote against the President.
I hope this happens, starting with summary deportation of criminal aliens with removal orders and move on to the visa overstayers.
Sounded too goo to be true:
Jack Posobiec @JackPosobiec
NEW: Senior White House official tells @OANN there are no plans for the Administration to invoke the Insurrection Act in regards to illegal immigrants
How about using the Insurrection Act against the Democrat Party? Based in the description of the law, it would be entirely appropriate.
Whoa!
No
Whey...
Yahweh...
Thought so...
20 million ? Maybe back in the 1970s. I think we’re closing in on 100 million, including the anchor babies, who should not be legal.
This is the nth time that I truly feel my 2016 vote for trump is so good
I don’t believe this will happen. The oligarchs, both financial and political are too invested in demographic replacement to allow this.
Same with liberals. Oregon was once conservative until liberals started fleeing California, and are recreating it here. They settled in their enclaves and turned Portland into Atifaland. They redistricted the state to favor their votes and now Oregon is blue. They’ve made everything outside of Portland just flyover country where every voice is silenced.
