BIG IF TRUE🔥Trump to invoke

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

Unsealed portion shows Baker and Principal Associate Deputy AG Matt Axelrod "later argued about the FBI's decision to interview Flynn"

Even in newly released documents on the @GenFlynn case, the DOJ still *insists* on redacting the name of FBI SSA Joseph Pientka.

It's been public record for OVER A YEAR that Pientka was the other FBI agent who interviewed Flynn @ White House on 1/24/17.

My first thought is, well he's likely a material witness in ongoing DOJ cases, but then again isn't just about EVERYBODY mentioned in these documents? McCabe, Baker, Strzoke, etc?

*WHY* the attempt to keep Pientka's name out of sight, out of mind?

I get they want to keep him under wraps, but why pretend it's not already public knowledge he was the other FBI agent at the Flynn interview at the White House?

ALSO:

Relation to Posse Comitatus Act[edit]
The entire text of the Posse Comitatus Act, as amended in 1956, is as follows:

18 U.S.C. § 1385 – Use of Army and Air Force as posse comitatus

Whoever, except in cases and under circumstances expressly authorized by the Constitution or Act of Congress, willfully uses any part of the Army or the Air Force as a posse comitatus or otherwise to execute the laws shall be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than two years, or both.

NEED DEFINING FURTHER:

Accordingly, actions taken under the Insurrection Act, as an “Act of Congress”, have always been exempt from the Posse Comitatus Act.[2][3]
