Let’s see - States have local police, Sheriff’s and State police - and Guard...NATIONAL Guard.

The country has the regular military to protect from FOREIGN enemies. And they are NOT allowed to fight inside the country.

That leaves the NATIONAL Guard for protecting us within the country.

Is that right?

And if so, how can a governor refuse to send it’s Guard?

The PRESIDENT of the UNITED STATES does as COMMANDER IN CHIEF.
All he has to do is Federalize and Activate them.
The LESBO IN CHIEF in the Oregon governor’s mansion has no place in the chain of command after the Guard is activated on the Federal level.

Just ask George Wallace (if he wasn’t dead).

I’d make it a point to Federalize her Guardsmen and send them to the Border to live in tents and tell that it was her posturing that got them called up. Then send them home in time for the elections.

Orville Faubus, the governor of Mississippi, did the same thing when Pres. Eisenhower asked for that state’s guard protect the first Black children to integrate the schools in Little Rock. So the President federalized the Guard, and they protected the children. President Trump can federalize the OR Guard.

I’ve read something about Title 10 which does allow the President to override and federalize the National Guard if a governor objects. Sorry, I didn’t copy the source, but, I think it’s on TGP.

President Trump can order up the National Guard. It is detailed as part of Article 10 of the United States Code. This is an explanation: https://www.law.cornell.edu/uscode/text/10/12406

You have to ask yourself why Oregon Governor Kate Brown or California Governor Jerry Brown have not blinked as George Wallace, Ross Barnett, and Orval Faubus did six decades ago. The segregationist governors realized that if they told their state National Guards not to submit to Federal command, the Attorneys General, such as Nicholas Katzenbach, Robert Kennedy, and Herbert Brownell, would have indicted and prosecuted them on grounds of sedition or treason. Perhaps the West Coast leftist governors do not fear Jeff Sessions as the pro segregation governors did his predecessors.

Which will come first?

Trump will shut off ALL Federal $$$$$$ to Oregon

OR

She will get off her high horse & help secure the border???

I would like to see a total shut off that lasts UNTIL the border is secure & ALL the Nat Guard are sent home.

That’s a jerk move.

You’d have to take Newfoundland, Nova Scotia, Ontario, Quebec, New Brunswick, and the greater Vancouver area then.

Sadly, you may be right.

I think in a push comes to shove situation, Trump would easily prevail - years ago the Governors got together and developed a “Dual Authority” deal to give them more power/control but when push comes to shove a real CinC “Trumps” a local “commander”...

“if President Donald Trump asks to dispatch members of her state’s National Guard to the US southern border”

To. Borrow from BJ Clinton, “I guess that all depends in what the meaning if ‘ASK’ is.”
