Republicans in Congress are eager for Trump to expand his use of the military on US soil

"National Guard troops patrolling the streets of U.S. cities. Weapons of war deployed against international gangs suspected of drug trafficking. Military bases and resources redirected to mass immigration enforcement operations.

Trump is swiftly implementing his vision of the military as an all-powerful tool for his policy goals. It’s ground that presidents have hardly ever crossed outside of times of war, and experts say it’s remaking the role of the most powerful military in the world and its relationship with the American public.

Yet as Trump has dramatically stepped up his use of military force, fellow Republicans in Congress — where authorization for such actions is supposed to originate — have done little but cheer him on. That’s giving the president significant leeway as he raises plans to send troops next to Chicago, Baltimore and New Orleans."

It’s not just Trump, Republicans are just as complicit, just as much advocates of the authoritarian Trump regime, just as much enemies of the Constitution and rule of law.

Radical concept, convince the low-life scumbags that are out there committing violence, theft and other crimes to cease and desist and there would be no need for the feds to roll in.

Yes, we are complicit in saving America.

“We on the Left care about the Constitution after we ignored and shat on it since 1913”, no you don’t.

Poor people who live in crime infested Democrat run cities are eager for the National Guard to come make their streets safe. They know that the progressive agenda doesn't work because they LIVE it every day!

Right, create opportunities for everyone and there will be no need for them to commit crimes.

Newsflash.....everyone (with the exception of those born with silver spoons in their mouths) starts at the bottom at some lame job. Get those kids to STAY IN SCHOOL AND ACTUALLY PAY ATTENTION AND LEARN, instead of dropping out in grade school and stealing and buying and selling illegal drugs.
I mowed lawns as a kid to bring in money to the household. When I was in high school, I worked as a dishwasher in a Chinese restaurant. On completing high school, I joined the military as the draft was on. After serving one tour, I got out and did miscellaneous low-end jobs (post hole digging, fence painting, furniture moving, fiberglass factory work, beer joint bartender, cab driving, bag machine repair), then went back to the military and made it a career.
These clowns that claim they can't get jobs just have to trot on over to a military recruiting office, join up and they will learn discipline and responsibility and get paid doing it and if they get into a technical field in the military, it can apply to the outside as well.

Must be why they keep voting for it.

You put one in the white house. Until you demand his resignation and that he serve the time his crime requires, STFU about crime.

It apparently works better than the right-wing plan.

Blackmail.

Like when the teenager came to my door selling candy bars, stating that if I buy one, I will be doing my part to keep kids off the streets.

"Give us your money or we'll bring crime to your neighborhood."

The new Mafia.

If anyone should STFU, it's you. All you do is *****, *****, *****, *****, ***** and ***** some more. Most likely, when you aren't on bitching, you're out there creating victims.

Oh bullshit, Super...the truancy rate for young blacks in Washington DC is off the charts. They're not going to school because they like the easy money of drugs and crime. Of course the left has turned our public schools in liberal cities into a joke. The kids don't get an education if they DO go to school, thanks to the teacher's unions so I guess it's understandable why they don't bother to show up!

I hate to point out the obvious but they're not very bright.

A 2003 Study Found that Black College Grads Had the Same Job Callback Chances as White Convicted Felons—Has Anything Changed?​

In 2003, sociologist Devah Pager sent a shockwave through the employment world with an audit study that revealed a brutal truth about American hiring practices.1 Setting out to discover the effects of having a criminal record on employment, she found something that made national news: Black men without a criminal background were called back for interviews at about the same rate as white men with felony convictions on their applications.

This wasn't about criminal justice—it was about deeply embedded racial bias in hiring. Two decades later, has anything changed?

The answer, according to the latest research, is a resounding "No."

More than two decades later, new research reveals the disturbing persistence of hiring bias—and some unexpected twists that make the picture even more complex.

Notice the date this article was pubished. Not 1925, 1965, but this year. A white felon has the same chance of getting job as a black college grduate. A white --- can drop out of school in the 8th grade, sell drugs, go to prison, get released with a felony on his record and have the same chance of gettig a job as a black college graduate.

I am tired of you amteurs running your mouths. STFU, you're wrong.

So STFU white man, you don't know wtf you're talking about and it is time people like you shut your damn mouths and started listening. Stop using one city or one black person to make claims about all black peopler. David Duke exists so I guess that means all whites are racists.

I actually went to one of the better public High Schools in the country...then got a degree in History at UMass and an MBA at BU. I've done rather well in life and it's BECAUSE I got a quality education! The crap that they're teaching in public schools these days is a millstone around the neck of any young person with the misfortune of being stuck with a public school education.

I would posit that one of the main reason why employers don't want to deal with minorities when they're hiring is they're scared they're going to get stuck with someone like YOU, IM2! Someone who doesn't get jobs done and always blames others for their failures. Then if they get called on their poor performance...you can almost GUARANTEE that the company will be getting sued because they're "racist"! People like you are your own worst enemy.
