I'm a bit alarmed at Trump activating California's National Guard over Newsom's authority.

@sarabee1995 yes, by Eisenhower to enforce allowing an African American girl to a school in Alabama against the wishes of the segregationist Governor Wallace.

My error the situation was in Arkansas.

@samueltyler2 Interesting. Are these the only two times this has happened?

@sarabee1995 not exactly, but in the past it happened when the governor refused to provide for the constitutional benefits afforded certain citizens:

Read about the Posse Comitatus Act which essentially restricts the military from coming into a state without being invited.

@ThePatientAnarchist yes, because you are a liberal leftist

@bijouxbroussard with the threat of US Marines, that is not far off the mark. 😞

@DDaverde no, you bawbag

@basilfawlty89 And that would mean something if the popular vote mattered in the race for President. It doesn't. If it did, every single candidate would run very different campaigns and the result would be very different popular votes. 🙄

Obsessing over the popular vote count in an electoral college race is like telling a cancer patient that he has 20/20 vision. It might be true, but it is not relevant.

This was an electoral college race and in the electoral college count (the only count that mattered), it was a landslide. And I say this as someone who has voted AGAINST president Trump three times and written here and elsewhere about how he is an embarassment to this country.

@sarabee1995 I get what you're saying. But their basis of their argument is that most Americans support Trump. That MAGA is the silent majority.

They're not.

Hence why I added approval numbers as a qualifier.

@SatanBurger I voted for law and order and to get rid of the illegals especially the criminal ones !

@ronisme1 Yeah you have a point there. I guess if someone is "Wanted", they are not going to be out there putting themselves on display.



@basilfawlty89 With these raids, how does ICE even decide where to go? Even if it based solely on Spanish speaking an skin color, wouldn't the govt want to use their limited resources do deal with the actual illegal citizens?

As far as "due process", I wonder how many other countries treat their illegal immigrants with that?
I am not saying it is good or right. I cannot imagine how stressful it would be, not being able to live a normal life because of constant threat of deportation.

All I am saying is people knew this was going to happen.

@Bill1372 Newscum and Bass are Left Wing radicals who seek the destruction of our beloved country!

@zonavar68 Only in your leftist mind. You go on and support gang members.

@ron122 i will not ever never support trump's corrupt gang who supported promoted and incited insurrection on jan 6 2021.

@zonavar68 So you admit you support gang members.

@zonavar68 no he and I want law and order not what the leftie democrats want !

@zonavar68 no he doesn’t!

@romell Do you take personal responsibility for your government, regardless of who’s in power ? Has there ever been anyone leading your country with whose policies you disagreed, since you’ve been of voting age ?

I’ve lived under administrations led by presidents for whom I hadn’t voted, but this is the first time ever that I’ve been ashamed of my country’s leader. 🙁

@bijouxbroussard sane citizens talk about the overall development of masses n not just some classes. One has to accept the verdict of masses but yes speak about what's wrong...

[@chrisCA no we got rid of one!!
