The President doesn’t need Ratcliffe’s report to Invoke the Insurrection Act. Denial of rights due to election fraud is more than enough.

Last summer in an interview with Judge Jeanine, she asked Trump why he didn’t invoke the Insurrection Act with the auntifaz/BurnLootMurder riotings. He said he could but he didn’t want to invoke it for 200 auntifaz, or something like that. Holding it in abeyance, basically.

I have the Insurrection act on my desktop and read it often if I need cheering.

I agree; the two are separate.

“The President doesn’t need Ratcliffe’s report to Invoke the Insurrection Act. Denial of rights due to election fraud is more than enough.”

Copying two of the sections:

https://policy.defense.gov/portals/11/documents/hdasa/references/insurrection_act.pdf

Insurrection Act

Sec. 332. Use of militia and armed forces to enforce Federal authority

Whenever the President considers that unlawful obstructions, combinations, or
assemblages, or rebellion against the authority of the United States, make it impracticable
to enforce the laws of the United States in any State by the ordinary course of judicial
proceedings, he may call into Federal service such of the militia of any State, and use
such of the armed forces, as he considers necessary to enforce those laws or to suppress
the rebellion.

Sec. 333. Interference with State and Federal law

The President, by using the militia or the armed forces, or both, or by any other means,
shall take such measures as he considers necessary to suppress, in a State, any
insurrection, domestic violence, unlawful combination, or conspiracy, if it—

(1) so hinders the execution of the laws of that State, and of the United States
within the State, that any part or class of its people is deprived of a right, privilege,
immunity, or protection named in the Constitution and secured by law, and the
constituted authorities of that State are unable, fail, or refuse to protect that right,
privilege, or immunity, or to give that protection; or

(2) opposes or obstructs the execution of the laws of the United States or impedes
the course of justice under those laws.
In any situation covered by clause (1), the State shall be considered to have denied the
equal protection of the laws secured by the Constitution.
