We will NOT stand for looting, arson, violence, and lawlessness on American streets. My team just got off the phone with Governor Evers who agreed to accept federal assistance (Portland should do the same!)…
…TODAY, I will be sending federal law enforcement and the National Guard to Kenosha, WI to restore LAW and ORDER!

Cavalry, even.
Evers is happy to let the feds do the Kent State deal so he can stand back and blame the feds.
Trump needs to assist but not be point on local law enforcement. Protect federal buildings if there are any and post offices etc and assist the locals.
These local and state officials can’t be let off the hook that easily. It’s their job to stop looting and pillaging.
I’ve been saying this for years.
Paper trail people! Paper trail!
Connect the dots and take people down.
Declare ANTIFA and BLM to be terrorist groups.
Make it clear anyone funding them will be prosecuted to the
full extent of the law. Corporations included...
Then take down the whole network that is hiring, trasporting,
managing events, paying, and supplying these terrorists.
If the kids are under age, go after their parents.
Use every tactic possible.
This S ends now.
Any public officials who talk up these two groups beyond
this point could be charged with aiding and abetting.
Start seizing the properties of parents or even the rioters
themselves to achieve compensation for those with losses.
AURORA? What a joke! It’s less than an hour away from me, and trust me, if there are neo-Nazis, they don’t make much noise. It’s got a large Hispanic population now, just like many Chicagoan suburbs.
Neo-Nazis would be making a Hell of a lot of noise during these BLM protests/riots, and I can imagine a lot of them being willing to meet them in the streets, whether the rioters are white or black. That hasn’t happened.
Because POTUS told him to.
Add vehicles or anything of value to the list.
Take their laptops and phones. Sell them to come up with
case for the victims who lost businesses.
As part of their parole, deny them ownership[ of phone or
computers.
We’ll see how well they network under those conditions.
The Posse Comitatus act prevents federal troops enforcing civil law, so if Trump nationalized them then they couldn't do anything. Besides, the governor sent the guard into Kenosha two days ago: Link
Good!!!
As I’ve said everywhere anyone can hear me (and many places they cannot), if the government doesn’t do its job to protect live AND PROPERTY, then the people will
!
He can call them into federal service for national emergencies. But federal troops cannot be used to enforce the law unless the governor asks for them.
Because it got real last night. Patriots killed and wounded Commie terrorists.
The Governor is concerned those Patriots might come after him next.
The hell you can't!
During the 1968 MLK riots in Washington DC, police, NG, and Federal troops restored order by making the DC Beltway a cordon sanitaire effectively blockading the city against 'outside agitators' entering the city.
Check points searched cars inbound and a sizable number detained and sent to the DC Stadium & Armory for questioning and all.
NG patrolled the burning zones with fixed bayonets and loaded magazines. Airborne units were deployed around the White House, Treasury buildings with APCs, jeeps with .50 cal pintle mounted locked and loaded machine guns. Capitol, Supreme Court and other Federal buildings received the same protection.
Only took three days of curfew and lock down to quiet things down...and yes rioters and looters were shot. IIRC Federal troops remained deployed for about a week after blockade was lifted.
I was there, stranded in Rosyln Virginia across the Potomac. Saw the columns of smoke rising from work places which overlooked the Iwo Jima Memorial.
All it takes is will and resolve.
Don't recall anyone one whining about the optics back then. ACLU bitchin' came later.
And BTW, rioting and looting was happening in every major city across the country and resolved in much the same manner.
In 1968 not every major city had Interstate Beltways, now most do...keep in mind that the Interstate Highway system was designed by President Eisenhower as the National Defense Highway system to rapidly move troops and material for just such events...rapid commuter access was just bonus side effect.
Windows Installer Wrapper Wizard?
They can’t enforce local law (i.e. arrest people for local crimes), but they can be there, be in the way and act to defend themselves. How else do you explain the widespread use of the NG in the Vietnam era?
The feds will stop the populace from defending themselves while allowing the rioters do continue their work...
HA!
BRRRRT.
My God, you’re both stupid and dishonest.
The guy who had half his bicep blown off, was photographed at least twice (once immediately before being shot, the second right after) holding a glock while wearing a “Paramedic” hat.
Even though he’s a convicted felon and prohibited from carrying weapons.
Yeah, one sweep with a Warthog would discourage any more destruction.
BRRRRRAAAAAAAPPPP!
