The district attorney in Philadelphia is warning federal officers that they could face arrest if they bring their tactics of "abuse of power" to his city. District Attorney Larry Krasner accused President Trump of "acting like an authoritarian dictator," he said on an appearance on MSNBC's "The ReidOut" Thursday and cautioned him not to send federal agents to his city.

Is this secession? Can the feds defend federal property (a la Ft. Sumter?)
Sounds like a threat to Federal Authority.....................
F-ing try it arsehole!
CW2 is starting.........................
What else can you call this but a Civil War?
Arrest the Feds? How does that even work when the Feds are there to protect citizens?
Does the Soros reach go all the way to the local level???
Well, we can HOPE they try to prevent Federal officers from enforcing Federal law in Philly.
The insurrection act was crafted for just such a contingency.
This is where the DA needs to learn that none of the city’s police officers are willing to carry out his orders.
A prissy little local DA against the full force and authority of the Federal government?
I’d like to see that...................
I believe Krassner is a Soros DA.
I’m sure when those Democrat governors opposed desegregation efforts that they resisted and resented the presence of Federal troops there to restore law and order as well.
These clowns are going to get an education over the reality of what’s going on and they have little or actually no power in this current situation. I have excerpted this passage from a Federal Handbook for Emergency situations which clearly states what can be done in the deployment of Federal assets to bring law and order. We have definitely reached the threshold to do this kind of thing. All it takes is an EO. From the “Use of Federal Troops or Authorities for Disaster Assistance”:
“Inherent Emergency Power
Department of Defense (DOD) regulations assert another exception that does not rest on statutory authority, but is available in very limited circumstances and covers actions that are taken under the inherent right of the U.S. Government to ensure the preservation of public order and to carry out governmental operations within its territorial limits, or otherwise in accordance with applicable law, by force, if necessary. The emergency power, according to DOD directives, is available to protect federal property and functions, and to authorize prompt and vigorous Federal action, including use of military forces, to prevent loss of life or wanton destruction of property and to restore governmental functioning and public order when sudden and unexpected civil disturbances, disaster, or calamities seriously endanger life and property and disrupt normal governmental functions to such an extent that duly constituted local authorities are unable to control the situation.
Ordinarily, the implementation of such operations must be authorized by executive order, but DOD officials and military commanders may take emergency action without prior authorization in cases where sudden and unexpected civil disturbances (including civil disturbances incident to earthquake, fire, flood, or other such calamity endangering life) occur, if duly constituted local authorities are unable to control the situation and circumstances preclude obtaining prior authorization by the President.”
It’s clear!
Soros puppet.
I doubt if they ever intend to "storm" anything.
Does he think the Philadelphia police dept will stand up against federal officer. They want to go home to their families. Ummm there is a huge and growing group of folks who are silent, until election day. backlash TIME
Has anyone seen most Philly cops? I’d like to see them try to confront federal forces. They Philly cops will get crushed fast.
” if duly constituted local authorities are unable to control the situation”
Does this cover ‘unwilling’ as well?
