Hegseth is live speaking to the brass.

[postman]

You mean you just made that up, imagining it makes you witty.

Pete Hegseth - If I become Sec of Def, I won't drink any more.

Dean Martin - But then again. I won't drink any less.

 

[TemplarKormac]

Yet most of the laws you listed, can't be enforced by the Military.

They can, if and when local authorities refuse to enforce them.

Grok:

Use of the National Guard in Extreme Circumstances​

Yes, in extreme cases where state refusal leads to insurrection, rebellion, domestic violence, or makes federal law enforcement "impracticable," the president can deploy the National Guard (after federalizing it) to enforce federal laws until order is restored. This is authorized under the Insurrection Act (10 U.S.C. §§ 251-255), which provides broad presidential discretion without needing congressional approval or state consent in certain scenarios. Key sections include:

• § 252: Allows use of armed forces when unlawful obstructions or rebellion hinder federal law enforcement via normal judicial processes.
• § 253: Permits intervention to suppress violence that deprives people of constitutional rights if state authorities "are unable, fail, or refuse" to protect them, or when it obstructs federal laws.
• § 251: Authorizes deployment at a state's request to suppress insurrection against its government.

The president must issue a proclamation ordering dispersal before deployment (§ 254). Historical uses include enforcing school desegregation in the 1950s-60s (e.g., Little Rock, Arkansas) and suppressing riots. However, the Posse Comitatus Act (18 U.S.C. § 1385) generally prohibits using federal military for domestic law enforcement, but the Insurrection Act serves as a key exception. Recent examples include deployments during civil unrest, though courts have ruled some uses illegal if they violate Posse Comitatus without proper authorization. Deployment is a last resort and can be controversial, as it risks militarizing civilian affairs

Given that local refusal to enforce basic laws ensuring safety of person or property, this has encouraged domestic violence. Clear grounds for using the National Guard and military to restore peace and order.

It's not like he is a Trump who tries to grab total power in government.

Except, President Trump doesn’t.

 

[Nuthin' Fancy]

Perhaps you weren't aware of the sniper who killed two detainees at an ICE facility in Texas? That is why they are there in Texas,

No, they aren't.

According to Trump, the NG should have been, right?
To protect a federal building?
Atlanta sniper?
CDC........Federal building.

and in Portland.

One ICE agent got a wad of bubble gum stuck on the bottom of his boot.

 

[Zincwarrior]

Trumps rambling like his usual compaign. Hegseth spoke like he's an expert vs. the actual experts sitting in front of him..

 

[marvin martian]

Defending from an invasion of a foreign military. Not an invasion of unarmed civilians from another country.

Where is that specified?

The "actual experts" according to eurocucks like you:

If you call that protesting... well, there's not much more to say to you, is there?

Sure....................

 

[BackAgain]

Neither does the US secretary of defense.

1) Extreme cases
2) There must be insurrection, rebellion, or domestic violence (such as riot)

Protests don't fit any of the requirements.

This is why it was necessary to call in every General and Admiral in the world?

Trump has used the term “Extreme Emergency”to mean he can do anything he wants

What does Pelosi have to do with Hegseths disastrous military strategies?

Link to a disaster
