Since when has legal authority meant anything in the past three years from Biden?
” declared by Congress, or when otherwise authorized by law”
None of that has occurred.
So Potato Head has no legal authority to activate/control National Guard units.
President Trump wanted to call up 10,000 of the District of Columbia National Guard prior to January 6. As President he couldn’t without the consent of the DC Mayor or Speaker of the House, thus they stayed home. Not sure if it required one or both to consent, but neither did.
Tell it to the governor of Arkansas 1959 and the governor of Alabama 1963
Article is BS.
Very, very few Texans support Xidenskyyyyyyy’s Invasion of America by the Xidenskyyyyyy Invaders. The Xidenskyyyyyy Express is coming off the rails. Mayorkass needs to pull his “Border Patrol Diaper Service” off the Rio Grande before somebody ends up getting hurt. Declaring war on Texas never is a very bright idea. MTAA (Make Texas American Again) has kicked in.
Lawlessness is the Biden motto!
Wrong questions.
One of the correct ones:
Was this result according to plan?
I suspect that it was, which raises the specter of what comes next (and I believe this - re the OP - to be a massive smokescreen, if not bait).
“”Clearly, there is no insurrection going on in Texas as defined in that law.””
There will be if the dems decide to call it an “insurrection.” We know how that works.
Remember: “I know you’ve always known what it is you want. - but your game is up, because now we know it too.” from John Galt speech – Atlas Shrugged
Ironically, the state of Texas is using obstructions to try and ENFORCE the laws of the United States against the wishes of the Feds.
Won’t be a problem if all the states just turn over their illegal alien ‘parolees’ to the District of Columbia, aka, Washington, DC. It’s the closest place that doesn’t have state sovereignty issues.
BTTT
“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.
Laws? We don’t need no stink n laws.

“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.
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.
Laws? Democrat administration? Biden doesn’t have to refer to any laws if he wishes to call up the Guard. Orders will be issued, and the weekend warriors will get in step or risk losing their retirement points.
