This supports the stateβs case that federal troops were actively assisting local law enforcement which is a violation of the Posse Comitatus Act.
Deeply insecure.

5 things to know as Newsom and Trump go back to court over the National Guard in LA

@ferricoxide@evil.social Yeah, I agree. We need to wait and see what happens with that lawsuit that started yesterday at California. The one where they're suing over the National Guard deployment. It's gonna end up before SCOTUS, and it's anybody guess how that's gonna be decided. But to your point, that's one of the things they need to look at. I honestly don't know if there's any specific definition of or criteria for a state of emergency. If there isn't, then they need to determine one. But in this writer's opinion, that definition should definitely not be left up to exactly one individual. The POTUS. Now in the case in California, I believe the government is arguing part of the rationale was to quell a rebellion. Or words to that effect. IMO, that's going to require a much stricter definition than just what defines an emergency. And therefore harder to prove in court.
@ferricoxide@evil.social I would just add, maybe we'll see some legal action about what he did in DC. But we haven't yet, and I tend to think, maybe we won't. I mean, I think if someone was gonna sue, it would have happened right away. That Home Rule law looks pretty solid.
