When President Trump used 32 U.S.C. § 502(f)(2) in 2020, that was to have out-of-state National Guard troops sent to D.C.—which has no sovereignty of its own. Sending the un-federalized TX National Guard into IL without the latter’s consent raises *serious* Article IV problems that 2020 … didn’t.

Trump calls Chicago a “Hellhole”. But last year 55 million tourists visited Chicago. Trump should look at Mike Johnson’s hometown of Shreveport ,La.that has a much higher crime rate than Chicago and is considered an unsafe city Why doesn’t Trump send troops to Johnson’s hometown? #ProudBlue

I doubt it was a drug boat, likely some poor unlucky fishermen that Trump decided to murder, where's the proof that it was a drug boat, they blew it up so they wouldn't have to prove it, our country just kills without any due process, USCG doesn't fire on drug boats, they seize and capture

On August 31: Thousands of fishermen took to the sea to show their support for their country “Pescadores para La Patria” Here are some images 👇🏼 If you’re interceded a narco vessel you stop the boat and seize the cargo. Blowing up the boat is an act of war.

The military to Trump is like a large group of toy soldiers that he can play war with. He doesn’t see them as humans in uniform, or the equipment as something that costs money to operate. He doesn’t seem to care if soldiers die or equipment is destroyed. He just wants to win.

As commander in chief, Trump has had a consistent penchant for performative military action against "terrorists." When his administration began designating criminal entities as terrorists, it was clear where this was headed. And of course the de rigeur video of the latest performance.
