President Donald Trump could announce as early as Monday night that he’s invoking a 213-year-old federal law that would allow him to deploy active-duty U.S. troops to respond to protests in cities across the country, according to four people familiar with the decision.
The military police forces would come from Fort Bragg in North Carolina and possibly Fort Belvoir in Virginia and could arrive in Washington within hours, these people said.
Trump’s decision to invoke the Insurrection Act, adopted in 1807, to deploy troops comes as his frustrations mount over the protests that have followed the death of George Floyd, a black man who was killed in police custody last week in Minneapolis.

Stop with your nonsense already.
ANTIFA wants to tangle with the fearsome 82nd?
Chuckle.

I’m only sorry he didn’t stop and piss on an antifay flag or at least a tree, in true Alpha Dog style.
“Mr President, are you prepared to use the military against US citizens?”
Lincoln did it and y’all worship him.
STFU news bimbo.
Just gun laws are ignored by criminals.
Go figure.
Damn it, why does everyone forget about the DOGS OF WAR???

LOOK AT RECENT ACTIONS OF JUDGE SULLIVAN AND JOHN ROBERTS - CIVIL WAR II - THIS IS ALL HEADED IN ONE DIRECT FOLKS!
whiny bitch ass performance art ... that’s golden
Roberts is a sapper.
It was stupid as hell.
People seated “symbolically” in front of the MPs, adapting angsty, martyrous poses while others stomped up to but not *too* close to the MPs, shouting inane platitudes, trying to convince them that they should “drop their weapons, follow their humanity and come to the side of righteousness”.
What blew my mind was that not one of the MPs so much as twitched a muscle the whole time.

Would’ve been all kinds of awesome, if they had.

The people on the ground are NOT Antifa... they are just paid pawns.
I’m telling you that military action IS the response the people at the top of the groups ‘LIKE’ Antifa are looking for. They don’t give a crap what happens to their paid thugs on the ground.
