That is why we have the Posse Comitatus Act.
It prevents the use of the military against Americans....
Unless you exclude Ruby Ridge and Waco.

Yes. That was a drug war exemption that allowed limited military involvement. But the DoJ (Janet Reno) had to lie to get the military involved. The military at the time wasn’t happy with it. But those warriors are all gone now and today we have totalitarians like Milley who are perfectly willing to use the military internally.

That won’t slow Mealy Mouth Miley down 30 seconds. He will release the troops on red states with brute force.

Yes, RR and Waco. The government has militarized local law enforcement. Under Obozo, they transferred surplus military equipment to LE agencies across the nation.
