Originally signed by Thomas Jefferson and amended over the years, it states: “Whenever there is an insurrection in any State against its government, the President may, upon the request of its legislature or of its governor if the legislature cannot be convened,” send in military troops.
In case governors don’t comply with Trump’s demands, one provision of the law, passed in 1956, gives him the power to act unilaterally: “Whenever the President considers unlawful obstructions, combinations, or assemblages or rebellion against the authority of the United States, make it impracticable to enforce the laws … in any State … he may call into Federal service such of the militia of any State, and use such of the armed forces, as he considers necessary to enforce those laws or to suppress the rebellion.”
More Bezos Washington Compost trash…

There’s a meme going around involving coronavirus mandates and such that says something to the effect, “If you ever wondered whether you would have complied in Nazi Germany, now you know.”
In a similar fashion, for all of the “2020 Minute Men” and “Patriots” out there who talked so boldly about taking the fight over the stolen election to the streets, “If you ever wondered about what you would do if a presidential election was stolen in this country, now you know.”
Over the last six weeks, if I had a dollar for every web site comment I read from a keyboard commando who said that he was ready, and even eager, to grab his AR and head à la “Les Miserables” to the barricades, I would tell Jeff Bezos to move over.
Instead, all I have seen so far is “All Quiet on the Western Front.”
Odd, huh?
