Trump confirms plan to use U.S. Military to conduct mass deportations

1. Can the President Use the Military to Respond to Domestic Unrest?

Yes, but this is subject to certain, critical legal restrictions under the Posse Comitatus Act and the Insurrection Act. The president is, of course, the commander-in-chief of the Armed Forces (and the D.C. National Guard), but he lacks the authority to use the military in any manner that he pleases. That authority is constrained by Congress and the courts and further informed by military instructions and doctrine.

Under the 1878 Posse Comitatus Act, Congress has limited the president’s ability to use the federal (title 10) military in domestic law enforcement operations such as searches, seizures, and arrests. A criminal statute, the Posse Comitatus Act makes it unlawful for the Army or Air Force to “execute the laws … except in cases and under circumstances expressly authorized by the Constitution or Act of Congress.” So, as a general matter the president cannot simply call in federal military forces or nationalize state National Guard units to quell domestic civil disturbances in Minneapolis or elsewhere without pointing to a Posse Comitatus Act exception. ( I am not sure he will be able to according to this. Military is not allowed to enforce laws. from what I read here.)

Actually, Biden just gave the military authorization to use lethal force on Americans; I'm sure that applies for Illegals as well
 

Leftards are so ******* stupid.

You fight for your own freedom, you don't waltz into someone else's country and claim theirs.

Give the asylum seekers a rifle and send them home.
 
President-elect Donald Trump on Monday confirmed he would declare a national emergency to carry out his campaign promise of mass deportations of migrants living in the U.S. without legal permission.

Overnight, Trump responded to a social media post from Judicial Watch's Tom Fitton, who said earlier this month there are reports the incoming administration is preparing such a declaration and to use "military assets" to deport the migrants.

"TRUE!!!" Trump wrote.

Trump pledged to get started on mass deportations as soon as he enters office.

Trump confirms plan to declare national emergency, use military for mass deportations

This really sounds careless and dangerous to me! What do you think?
Excellent.. should have put the military on the border years ago. When they cross illegally, round them up onto military trucks and drive them straight back. They can be processed on the Mexico side and refused..
 
We would t be in this mess if the Democrats were about enforcing immigration laws instead of pushing open borders. And now they are still hell bent on putting illegals’ interests above US interest.

It would be terrible if the military is used to remove illegal immigrants from an area. I mean, it's not like it hasn't happen before. Ask the MA National Guard who removed those illegal immigrants from Martha's Vineyard. You're fretting that he's going to do this but fail to realize that he said he was going to do this and we the people voted. So, to many voters, this is going to be the fulfillment of a campaign promise.

And labor costs will go up, and the armed forces which don't have enough people will be doing other stuff, along with all the transgender getting kicked out, there won't be a military left.
 
He would still need congressional approval to deploy US troops on domestic soil. There is one authority the President doesn't have on his own.

Wrong

President Eisenhower deployed the 101st Airborne to Little Rock Arkansas with just an executive order
