Appeals Judges Greenlight Trump’s Portland Military Deployment
Ya, Mike, most of my life it's been that the National Guard is the militia in the Constitution that both States and Fed would use. That if there were riots or serious threats, you could call out the National Guard, who, alongside the Police would quell rioting, They both learned, studied, practiced riot techniques for breaking up riots. Posse Comitatis meant that in an unusual violent situation where deep unrest needed to be dealt with we could pull out the troops. Now the standards are lowered to the point where though there's no violence or even threat of violence, the NG gets deployed and does landscaping and picks up trash.
