..... Unfortunately for this Governor ..... Something is about to happen to make him eat a mouthful of Crow. Don’t ask me what ..... But it’s actually called the “The Trump Curse.”
My guess is that Governor Kate Brown is scared witless that her state guard will tell her to slide buck-naked down a cactus.
Federalize the Guard, march in, and arrest this Commie b****.
I, at times, just say f-it. We are a country that is so fractured I see no use in pretending that we are a united republic of American people under the Constitution and God. Some of these states are just as bad as mediocre to turd world countries. We are living an American Cold War and flirt with Civil War. The sh*t will hit the fan when the DNC gets power back.
Guess what you dumbass governor, President Trump will likely send your Oregon unit first. All he has to do is federalize the Guard and your dumbass can do nothing about it! You should have kept your liberal sewer spout shut!
Oh yes you will or Mattis will take it way from you. They are first and foremost US military reserve units.
When our border is under attack, militarizing is the only fitting response.
Someone should show Gov. Katie a little kindness and let her know that Oregon doesn’t have a border with Mexico.
I can understand her confusion though having a border with California. :)
The separate National Guard units are part of the DoD. The CinC can nationalize them at his pleasure. If any state officials try to stop this would be guilty of sedition and most likely arrested by the same national guard.
Not a problem. Should President Trump require the organized part of Oregon's State Militia, its National Guard, at the U.S.-Mexican border, he needs just to activate them for federal service. The Governor of Oregon has no say in the matter, unless she wants to commit an act of rebellion and be arrested for treason.
Should Oregon have a State Guard, it cannot be called up for federal service. But its individual members can.
Here’s the law: http://tenthamendmentcenter.com/2007/01/12/governors-lose-in-power-struggle-over-national-guard/
Just google “President’s power over national guard”
If the Governor is a member of the Oregon Natinal Guard, which I would guess as its commander she is, the President could probably call HER into Federal service as well!

Wow! What a brave guy! /s
President Trump is the Commander of those forces.
He can also wreak havoc in Oregon's military funding should he choose.
The Governor Faubus stand.
The lack of respect shown towards the President is disgusting.
Stupid bitch. Trump can sign an order to federalize the guard units and send them to the border.
When guard units deploy to the ME it is under federal orders, not the stinking governor of the state.
It is the governor’s prerogative to refuse to deploy their guard.
It is the President’s prerogative to federalize their guard, at which point the governor is not longer in the chain of command.
Isn’t this how the Civil War started?
