U.S. Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh has suggested Donald Trump could attempt to deploy troops to U.S. cities under the Insurrection Act.
The Insurrection Act of 1807 allows the president to call on reserve or active-duty military to suppress rebellion or domestic violence or enforce the law in states.
Kavanaugh’s remarks came in a separate opinion after the court on Tuesday refused to allow the Trump administration to deploy National Guard troops in the Chicago area to support its immigration crackdown.
The high court declined the administration’s emergency request to overturn a ruling by U.S. District Judge April Perry that had blocked the deployment of troops. Three justices—Samuel Alito, Clarence Thomas and Neil Gorsuch—publicly dissented.
This is so funny to me… because I grew up around criminals. Some of them were Arabic, but they were just a few in larger groups of white criminals - who all colluded together.
Since the police racially profiled the Arabic kids they were used as bait while the white kids would transport the illicit goods.
Then the cops would end up with no evidence and the cases got dismissed. Now that’s what I call gaming the system.
Reminds me of the boyfriend of an old coworker. Before he turned his life around, he was an addict that the cartels used a few times to run drugs across the border. The way that worked was that they’d dress him up in some nice clothes, a pair of sunglasses, and throw him in a beautiful convertible with the top down and a load of drugs in the trunk. Border patrol would never bother to stop or check a rich white guy coming back from a 3 day weekend in Mexico, and he’d drop the car off at a gas station a few miles past the border.
