Posse Comitatus Act

[candycorn]

I am hopeful there are Army convoys going down I-10 in Tucson down I-19 to Nogales. It will remind everyone what a GOP administration is all about.

So trump is sending our military to the border.

What are they going to do there?

They can't do anything beyond just standing there and maybe smile.

The Posse Comitatus Act prevents our military from being used to enforce any domestic policies or law in the United States.

It basically prevents the military from doing what trump is trying to use them for.

They can't police the border beyond just standing there. They can't use their weapons nor can they take any action to enforce our domestic immigration laws. They can't arrest anyone, they have no authority. They can't legally do anything beyond stand there and smile.

There is no good reason to send out military to the border. All trump is doing is putting on a show for the election. I wouldn't be surprised if on November 7th next week he withdraws those federal military troops from the border.

Posse Comitatus Act - Wikipedia

Enforcing the borders is a federal responsibility and act, not a domestic one.

Remember when Arizona lost the lawsuit when they tried to enforce their southern border, much to the glee of moonbats like you?

BINGO

I bet the loons thinking we shouldn't protect the border lock the doors to their abodes.

"In the United States, a federal statute known as the Posse Comitatus Act, enacted in 1878, forbade the use of the United States Army, and through it, its offspring, the United States Air Force, as a posse comitatus or for law enforcement purposes without the approval of Congress. While the act does not explicitly mention the United States Navy and the United States Marine Corps, the Department of the Navy has prescribed regulations that are generally construed to give the act force with respect to those services as well."​

What's it going to cost the American taxpayer for trump to stage 15,000 men for 3 weeks along the US border, just to stroke his ego and put on a dog and pony show for his followers?

I'm not sure you realize it, but Congress could change the act at whim.

I'm not sure you realize it, but congress has not changed that act. Right now that Act
is the law of this land and trump seems to be violating another law.

So when they actually do change it, you'll have a point.

Right now you don't.

I know they didn't change the law. That is why I chose the word "could" when I wrote the sentence. Are you always so dull witted? I'm not sure I have time to read your drivel if you are.

So then you really didn't have a point.

Ok.

Right now trump is violating another law.

The point is that you are waving around the Posse Comitatus Act as if it's inviolate. All I'm saying it can be changed by the whim of Congress. You're too dense to have a discussion with, so I'm putting this ID on ignore.

Posse Comitatus Act - Wikipedia

The limits of military action will be determined by Trump and Trump alone based on his declaration of the invasion.
If he invokes the Insurrection Act Posse Comitatus does not apply.
Look it up.

Wrong. The insurrection clause in the Constitution is subjected to Congress. And applies only to rebellion by a group of citizens that would try to bypass laws established by Congress.

The President cannot use the military to enforce federal laws.

Defending the border is a military function. The military defended the border for 50 plus years after the PC Act was passed.

State National Guard can go to the border of their own states but according to that Act, the federal military can go there but can't do much of anything.

Federal military can't enforce domestic law and policy.

The Act is clear.

Border defense is not about domestic law, it is a basic function of the military.

And those legal points of entry should be manned by civilians. The rest of the border by the military.
