Posse Comitatus Act

[Polishprince]

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.

Protecting the border isn't a "domestic policy"

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.

we have border protection; we should be rolling out humanitarian assistance.

we have border protection;

We do?

Then why do we have so many illegal aliens in the country?

they are peaceful and willing to work. actual invaders would need mines at the border.

They were peaceful when they pushed through Mexico's border? You need a dictionary, man!

Got to prepare the refugee camps.

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.

That’s super cute...you’re trying so hard, you really want these wetbacks to be able to **** good Americans over don’t you?
You’re wrong bud....keep trying though...This is fun, I love schooling ignorant fools.

The Insurrection Act of 1807 is the set of laws that govern the President of the United States of America's ability to deploy troops within the United States to put down lawlessness, insurrection and rebellion. The laws are chiefly contained in 10 U.S.C. § 331 - 10 U.S.C. § 335. The general aim is to limit Presidential power as much as possible, relying on state and local governments for initial response in the event of insurrection. Coupled with the Posse Comitatus Act, Presidential powers for law enforcement are limited and delayed.

Recent changes

On September 30, 2006, the Congress modified the Insurrection Act as part of the 2007 Defense Authorization Bill. Section 1076 of the new law changes Sec. 333 of the "Insurrection Act," and widens the President's ability to deploy troops within the United States to enforce the laws. Under this act, the President may also deploy troops as a police force during a natural disaster, epidemic, serious public health emergency, terrorist attack, or other condition, when the President determines that the authorities of the state are incapable of maintaining public order. The bill also modified Sec. 334 of the Insurrection Act, giving the President authority to order the dispersal of either insurgents or "those obstructing the enforcement of the laws."

A lot less than it will cost the American taxpayer to house/feed/support thousands of illegals for years.

`
Yeah right. Already the caravan has big drop offs. By the time they reach the US border, in about two weeks, there will be maybe a couple hundred refugees facing off against 15,000 of our best, heavily armed troops, to prevent them from crossing over. Sounds like a bit of overkill and expensive. But then again, there's a fool in the presidents chair so......

"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?

We have a Commerce Clause; let's generate revenue from border policy; only lousy capitalists lose money on policy, anyway.

Good idea, we can charge $50,000 admittance fee.

I remember hearing that if the President has a pen and a phone, he can do what he wants through Executive Order. Was that wrong?

the democrat would have recourse to a Commerce Clause; unlike the more nationalist right wing regarding social policies.

The concept is to send a crystal clear message to the current caravan, the second caravan already on the move and the third caravan being organized. But you knew this already, and feel if you whine long enough and loud enough things would change.....not gonna happen.
