Guy needs to STFU and follow orders...

you are an idiot,,, Robert Muller wants to talk to you, he needs help finding evidence.

Quite a few state governors have banned their National Guard troops from deployment at the U.S. - Mexico border. So Trump deploys the Marines there --- along with the grace of Putin --- since it weakens NATO even more...that is ripe for invasion from Putin and his henchmen.

Fuck a state governor, POTUS commands the NG outside their state border.

I agree to disagree...

The POTUS can't just call up military forces on a whim to do domestic law enforcement, it's barred by a federal law dating back to the civil war...A law known as the Posse Comitatus Act of 1879.

The state governor is the commander in chief for that --- for those National Guard soldiers. So a governor can refuse the request of a president.

Posse Comitatus speaks directly about using the Military against US citizens and or policy in the US.
Obviously Illegal Immigrants aren't either.

I think obama did something to remove posse comitatus. Reguardless as securing our border is by no means “domestic law enforcement”.. and if you really want to push the issues then trump just needs to order troops to take over the Mexican side of the border.. as I stated earlier

"Why President Trump Can't Directly Order National Guard Troops to U.S. - Mexico border"

Source:

 
The Army National Guard as currently authorized and organized operates under Title 10 of the United States Code when under federal control, and Title 32 of the United States Code and applicable state laws when under state control. The Army National Guard may be called up for active duty by the state or territorial governors to help respond to domestic emergencies and disasters, such as those caused by hurricanes, floods, and earthquakes, as well as civil disorder.[2] The District of Columbia Army National Guard is a federal militia, controlled by the President of the United States with authority delegated to the Secretary of Defense, and through him to the Secretary of the Army.[4]
Members or units of the Army National Guard may be ordered, temporarily or indefinitely, into the service of the United States.[5][6] If mobilized for federal service, the member or unit becomes part of the Army National Guard of the United States, which is a reserve component of the United States Army.[7][8][9] Individuals volunteering for active federal service may do so subject to the consent of their governors.[10] Governors generally cannot veto involuntary activations of individuals or units for federal service, either for training or national emergency.[11] (See Perpich v. Department of Defense.)
The President may also call up members and units of the Army National Guard, in its status as the militia of the several states, to repel invasion, suppress rebellion, or enforce federal laws.[12] The Army National Guard of the United States is one of two organizations administered by the National Guard Bureau, the other being the Air National Guard of the United States. The Director of the Army National Guard is the head of the organization, and reports to the Chief of the National Guard Bureau. Because the Army National Guard is both the militia of the several states and a federal reserve component of the Army, neither the Chief of the National Guard Bureau nor the Director of the Army National Guard "commands" it. This function is performed in each state or territory by the State Adjutant General, and in the District of Columbia by the Commanding General of the District of Columbia National Guard when a unit is in its militia status. The Chief of the National Guard Bureau and the Director of the Army National Guard serve as the channel of communications between the Department of the Army and the Army National Guard in each state and territory, and administer federal programs, policies, and resources for the National Guard.[13]
The Army National Guard's portion of the president's proposed federal budget for Fiscal Year 2018 is approximately $16.2 billion to support an end strength of 343,000, including appropriations for personnel pay and allowance, facilities maintenance, construction, equipment maintenance and other activities.[14]
 
Holy hell, the "backing and forthing" going on here in this thread is like watching a tennis match. I gave up the repetitious reading and skipped to the end here, just to say my point:

National Border. National Military. The key point of the thread/premise here, is to MAN the border. As opposed to what ya'll have at the moment, which is "wide open free-entry spaces".

Start with MANNING the border, with whichever LIVE ENTITY you have, and call 'em whatever you want. But START with manning said border. Then refine the requirements from there. Moats, minefields, missile sites, whatever.

And yeah, this is coming from a Canuckian. Makes you shake your head, don't it?

Did you have this concern when Clinton sent the army to burn out the dividians and kill 80 American kids by incineration? Ditto for Ruby Ridge... or does your low level IQ just listen to NPR and think Orange Man bad Brown man good?

Have you ever read a history book on my country or do you just live by the talking points reiterated everyday on NPR?

I'm talking about some wannabe tinpot dictator...and I'm sure that you know who that is!!! Huh???
 
The way I see it is our governor has to ask for title 10 orders from potus to guard the border with the TNG.

He should and potus should sign it.

I dont see why U S forces are not guarding our border, all of them on active should be rotated on the border.
 
Perhaps he needs to go, but from my perspective he is not entirely wrong. When our military is deployed to protect our borders they should have orders to use lethal force without warning against every incursion. Anything less is just another way to Keep the border open while pretending to do something.

When My Dad went to army boot camp in WWII they told him that when a sentry was standing watch if he saw an intruder he was to holler HALT one time and if the person did not halt he was to shoot until that person was dead. They said that they would then that very day or the following day at the latest convene a court martial, charge the sentry with murder, convict him, penalize him with a fine on one dollar. In most cases they claimed that the Sargent would pay the dollar for him. Under the US Constitution they could never be charged again because of the Double Jeopardy provision.

My point being that to stop unauthorized entry you must me willing to use lethal force.

So that murder conviction didn't slow anybody down later in their service career or later life?
 
agree 100%

I f his reasoning was I wont deploy the Marines unless we operate under our 11 General Orders, it is the only way we can truly be effective than I would not have an issue but the tenor of his memo is "We cant".

"Why President Trump Can't Directly Order National Guard Troops to U.S. - Mexico border"
What we really need is a coup d'etat by the U.S. military...

On the first one NPR is far from an unbiased service. Please notice I intentionally left out “news’.
You’ll also find out, if you last that long, that quoting NPR will probably not serve you well here. Just unsolicited advice.

On the coup d’etat: Really? Who would that serve and have you considered the repercussions should that occur. I can assure you they would be dire. Also, if you are a vet then you know the oath you took. Going against that carries no honor.

Last unsolicited advice. Try to be here more than 15 minutes before you decide to mix it up. At your current rate you won’t make it a week. There’s a lot of insight and knowledge available here if you pay attention. Don’t squander the opportunity.

Granted,

I'm just a civi and don't understand how dangerous this really is, however follow a link to what happened just south of the Arizona border. What folks don't understand who don't live down here, the border doesn't mean squat. So what happens there, can happen here.

'Cartel Operatives' run drugs on this side of the border, they ambush each other and steal drugs from each other, and eventually that stuff ends up in some dead junkie's arm that we've probably brought back several times with Narcan.
