“A number of federal statutes govern the National Guard, which is the modern equivalent of state militias and a reserve component of our military.”

The NG is not and never has been the ‘moderne equivalent of state militias’. The state militias were independent of the federal government and could not be brought under federal control. In fact, several states have initiated ‘state militias’ independent of the NG.

WAR in Iran coming up in 3,2,1...

Nah, they'll just activate the unit and send them to Sinai, KFOR, or crappy assignment in Iraq/Jordan/Syria.

Biden can do what he likes, what ever it is. We are about to go to war with Iran—He will have War Powers to do any rash act he wants. If anyone stands against him—he can send in the FBI, seize the Congress and arrest all GOP Congress critters for this charge or that—being MAGA Trump followers or anything he can make up. The Nation is DONE.

I wouldn’t rule out any of those possibilities.

“The NG is not and never has been the ‘moderne equivalent of state militias’. The state militias were independent of the federal government and could not be brought under federal control. In fact, several states have initiated ‘state militias’ independent of the NG.”

And in fact, Texas is one of those states. I have started paperwork to join the Texas STATE Guard after retiring from the military in 1995. I challenge all others who live in Texas under the age of 70 to do the same.

"Biden has more bayonets than Texas does. Biden could get away with it."

I doubt that. Most of the "warriors" in the military are too busy getting sex-change surgery, trying to figure out which bathroom to use, engaging in homo activity, or suing for racial discrimination, etc.

There are very few "warriors" left in the military, and no real MEN want to enlist today. The military of the former USA is a joke, intentionally.

President Trump wanted to call up 10,000 of the District of Columbia National Guard

How is this possible when DC is not mentioned in the US Constitution, Art IV Sect 4 as a sovereign state, nor was it raised to that status by a Constitutional Convention? All the states have governors. DC has a mayor.

To correct the insanity put forth by Biden, the several States should send all their Fed illegal alien 'parolees' to DC for further processing of immigration in DC's political 'neutral' space.

“Clearly, there is no insurrection going on in Texas as defined in that law.“

Clearly this guy has t figured out that insurrection is what that SAY it is.

They can and will cite US 10. 252 whenever they want.

And it is the Biden administration that is “hindering” the execution of the laws of the United States with its abject refusal to enforce our immigration laws, to prevent illegal aliens from crossing the border, and its unlawful granting of mass parole to those aliens once they are in the United States.

That sounds to me like valid legal grounds for an impeachment.

Unfortunately, in the past few years, impeachment has become a bludgeon which the majority in Congress uses to pound on the opposing party President. It has lost its gravity.

———
Title 10 authorizes State NG’s federalization. However, if the Governor of a State doesn’t give approval of HIS NG being federalized, ( resistance), about the only thing the Federal Government can do is stop the spending on their military equipment and support, then try to move in and seize their assets. Knowing Texas,Texans, and NG members, good luck with the general population accepting that. Any move by senile Joe will undoubtedly be meet by extreme resistance by Texas citizens.

“ § 304. Enlistment oath
Each person enlisting in the National Guard shall sign an enlistment contract and subscribe to the following oath:
‘‘I do hereby acknowledge to have volun- tarily enlisted this ll day of llll, 19l, in the llllll National Guard of the State of llllll for a period of ll year(s) under the conditions prescribed by law, unless soon- er discharged by proper authority.
‘‘I, llllllll, do solemnly swear (or af- firm) that I will support and defend the Con- stitution of the United States and of the State of llllll against all enemies, foreign and domestic; that I will bear true faith and alle- giance to them; and that I will obey the orders of the President of the United States and the Governor of llllll and the orders of the officers appointed over me, according to law and regulations. So help me God.’’

….enemies foreign and domestic….most in Texas fully realize senile Joe is a domestic enemy…..
