Well, I guess the first thing is are you talking about National Guard or are you talking about actual troops? National Guard, the President has the right to be able to do certain things for emergency situations, flood and rescue and protecting government buildings and so forth like that. That can be done. That's not a problem. However, if it's the US military, it's a totally different situation. Pasi Comitatus Act of 1878 forbids us from doing that and the whole law came into effect back in the Reconstruction era of the post-Civil War and it went so badly for them that they finally decided to pass a bill that it would not happen again. Now there are some exceptions to the rule of putting the military in place and it's only been done from what I've seen three times. In 1957, Little Rock, Arkansas, Eisenhower brought the 101st Airborne in for desegregation because there was a lot of crap going on at that time. Los Angeles in 1992 for a hurricane verdict and in 2005, another hurricane, Katrina. And you know how big of a mess that was and even then with all the stuff they had, they still couldn't take care of these poor people down there in Louisiana, right? However, you know, so it's basically illegal for Trump to do this unless, and he's been talking about this a lot, he wants to enact a law saying, well, here's the whole thing, is to convince people for him to be able to do this, let me reset real quick. He has to convince everybody that there's a real problem going on in the United States and that everything is completely out of control and that's part of this from the truth right now that you could ever possibly be. So he's trying to make up this storyline so that he can start the Insurrection Act and once he can say he's going to use the Insurrection Act, that he can move military troops in the Indian city, in the nation, all 50 states, right? And you don't want that. You do not want that because military are for fighting wars. They're not for policing and they don't look at terms of, okay, are we doing the right thing or not or are we following the Americans, you know, constitutional rights or anything like that. Their deal is to infiltrate and separate and kill. You know, that's basically what they do. That's what they're trained for. They're not trained for police. But still it goes back to the first act is very important and it's a law that's been on the books for a long time, the Posse Comitatus Act, right? So no, I don't think this is a good idea at all. I think it's fabricated. I think it's a way of, he's doing politics more than he's doing anything else. It's a way of control and to silence dissent. I mean, once he brings his troops out there, let's say he won't stop acts like the No Kings Acts, which have been completely peaceful by using military troops and how many casualties are we going to have there? I think he's trying to test the limits of his power. You know, that's what he's been doing ever since he's been in office and so far he's been successful, but eventually it's going to have to stop. You know, I don't want to get it to the point that we have military troops on the ground. People's rights are being violated that are innocent and there's death everywhere. That just doesn't sound good to me. And it's also, you know, it's a strategy to control the elections coming up. You know that that's exactly what he's been trying to do. He's done several things to sway everything to the Republican side. So, you know, I'm starting to wonder if we're going to have elections that are going to be fair. And that's just the legal abuse of it all. I mean, Congress gets to get up there and start to object to some of the stuff he's doing. And I'm not talking, I'm talking both sides. They got to work together. They got to start taking our country back. We got instead of the view of just, you know, it's our side of their side. No, it's you're working for the American people and we need to get this under control and get back, get America back on track without a madman doing all the crap that he's doing. So I don't know. Does that answer your question? I'm really opposed to it. Back to you, KB0MAI.
