Unbelievable! Going into this maelstrom unarmed. PC is going to get some of our paratroopers killed.
Notice the front line in the photo above (file photo from the article). Two of the paratroopers are not like the other two. Can't quite put my finger on it.
Also odd -- why are the two big paratroopers carrying bottles of wine?

The designation of antifa as a terrorist organization will change this deployment to armed.

If this regular Army, they are not permitted to operate on American soil. If National Guard, a okay.

They’re going to give emotional support and to help hand out meals to the rioters? /s

Antifa has not yet been declared a terrorist org. President Trump announced they WILL be declared as such. But I didn’t see any indication of when that will happen.
I really wish he’d just act and announce it.

Unbelievable! Going into this maelstrom unarmed. They're not going anywhere. They can't be deployed unless the governor requests federal troops and he isn't going to.

They should refuse to go if they are not allowed to defend themselves or anyone else.

Not exactly. They are not allowed to engage in law enforcement operations under the posse comitatus act. They are authorized to operate and keep the peace in times of insurrection. And if some armed force were to come onto American soil, they could certainly defend their nation.

If Trump invokes the Insurrection Act, they can be used internally.

I'll say it, short-shit dykes. Don't see any wine bottles.

The is an alternative path to the one you correctly mentioned. That would be the declaration of martial law. Again, that has not yet been done so your point is still valid.

” The soldiers have been told to not bring their weapons with them on this potential mission.”
Without weapons, they are targets.

Maybe it’s going to be a “wine summit”?

That won't happen since there is no organized armed effort to overthrow the Fedgov.

It doesn't override the Constitution. Article IV, Section 4: "... and shall protect each of them against invasion; and on application of the legislature, or of the executive (when the legislature cannot be convened) against domestic violence." The governor is not going to ask for them and the legislature is not in session.
