Assets used may help to understand, state National Guard assets belong to the Gov unless activated by the congress. For instance if held in NY the gov could put his assets on orders to participate. To use the NY assets out of state requires them to be on federal vs state orders and has to be pre-approved by higher authorities at the National Guard Bureau. For the President to use those assets requires congressional authorization.
Think Central HS, Eisenhower sent in the regular army because Faubus would not use his national guardsmen. On the other hand the POTUS does own the Reserves (they are part of the active DOD components) as well as the active DOD components.
If deep state or Clinton allies are state governors it would be in the POTUS best interest to ‘disarm’ those deep state tools. Remember Nixon seriously toyed with using the marines to try to remain in office, thank God cooler heads prevailed. These deep staters cannot maintain cooler heads due to their ‘mortality’. They ARE time limited. I think their time is up, and it may be due to the efforts of citizens that love freedom here on Freerepublic! MAGA! I believe God is weaving freepers into His plan real time! Amen.
Good points.
Here is a copy of the ANSWER file from QPost 11 from Oct 29.... this was during the lead up to threats from ANTIFA to go crazy on the 4th of Nov:
This has to do with the issue you are discussing about the National Guard and how it might play out in New York, I think.
Note also that this is one of the QPosts which have at the start of it “KEY”

MI has the most access to mined data and classified information. They have the best information gathering tools, They also have more power in general and are devoted to the constitution. MI can take over the investigations for the other three in cases of high treason.
No approval or congressional oversight
MI does not answer to Congress
State Secrets upheld under SC

Under what article can the President impose MI take over investigations for the 3 letter agencies? What conditions must present itself? Why is this so VERY important? Who surrounds POTUS? They lost this very important power _ the one area of the govt not corrupt and directly serves POTUS.
The Insurrection ACT allows POTUS to use military (& National Guard) as police force in the event of terrorist act, natural disasters and disorder that state police cannot contain https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Insurrection_Act ALL OF WHICH HAVE HAPPENED IN THE FIRST 8 MONTHS OF TRUMP’S PRESIDENCY. Specifically, the Las Vegas massacre was a great opportunity to impose these powers — 911 style, esp. since the cover story crumbled so quickly. The fact they didn’t intervene suggests there is something going on behind the scenes.
SUMMARY
Military Intelligence v FBI, CIA, and NSA. No current approval or congressional oversight as State Secrets are upheld under Supreme Court. The POTUS can impose Military Intel take over investigations for the 3 letter agencies, but conditions must present itself. This is so VERY important.
Someone surrounds POTUS. They lost this very important power - the one area of the government not corrupt and directly serving POTUS.

MI is not as corrupted and infested with globalist assets
MI is under the direction of POTUS ONLY, not other agencies.
MI OPS (operations) and products are protected from other corrupt agencies using STATE SECRETS powers, which the globalists gave to POTUS over the last 30 years. Now its turned on them.
No approval or congressional oversight
State Secrets upheld under SC
An evidentiary rule created by U.S. legal precedent. Application of the privilege results in exclusion of evidence from a legal case based solely on affidavits submitted by the government stating that court proceedings might disclose sensitive information which might endanger national security. U.S. v. Reynolds, which involved military secrets, was the first case that saw formal recognition of the privilege. Following a claim of “state secrets privilege”, the court rarely conducts an in camera examination of the evidence to evaluate whether there is sufficient cause to support the use of this doctrine. This results in court rulings in which even the judge has not verified the veracity of the assertion. The privileged material is completely removed from the litigation, and the court must determine how the unavailability of the privileged information affects the case. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/State_secrets_privilege

Under provisions of both the Homeland Security Act, Military Commissions Act(s), and The PATRIOT Act, the POTUS, either via his sec, or by sending armed troops to halt the attempts to resist launched by pseudo state operative Elaine Duke, current Secretary of Homeland Security, may engage in any number of activities to halt treason by forces hostile to the United States within the Armed Forces, or cease an entire Dept of US Gov from its compromised authority. These were checks and balances to the usurption and abuse of US internal policy which, as in the case of some Sept 11 Attackers whose visas were not thoroughly vetted, where these bureacratic practices could amount to “holes” in the US statuatory armor. Also, the Pat Act gives Potus the authority to declare any group hostile to US “terrorists”.
At that point, under PATRIOT Act detention is legal, and under the Military Commissions Act of 2008, the tribunals are now engageable.
SUMMARY
MI does not answer to Congress, has the most access to mined data and classified information. They have the best information gathering tools, They also have more power in general and are devoted to the constitution. MI can take over the investigations for the other three in cases of high treason. The State Secrets Act was upheld in the Supreme Court United States v. Reynolds, 345 U.S. 1 (1953) acknowledging the right of the government to exclude evidence in a trial that may harm National Security. The President is the Commander in Chief of the Military and the Chief of Staff is Gen. John Kelly, a Marine. The President can use military (& National Guard) as police force in the event of terrorist act, natural disasters and disorder that state police cannot contain.
I’m fairly certain the post 9-11 authorizations from Congress gave the President the authority to activate and that they haven’t been rescinded. Have to double check.
