The popular meme falling from the lips of Donny in his late night stupidity is the term ‘insurrection’ that he has been throwing around to justify his insane plan to use US troops in our cities…….sorry our ‘blue’ cities.
Donny keeps saying that our cities (Blue cities) are suffering from an insurrection (have you seen any evidence of that?).
President Donald Trump took a major step toward invoking some of the most extreme emergency powers available to a sitting president and claimed an “insurrection” is underway in Portland, Oregon.
During an interview with Newsmax host Greg Kelly, Trump said he would consider invoking the Insurrection Act as a way to “get around” a judge’s order blocking the administration from deploying National Guard troops to Portland.
“If you take a look at what’s been going on in Portland, it’s been going on for a long time, and that’s insurrection. I mean, that’s pure insurrection,” he said. “And then you’ll have a governor get up and say, ‘There’s absolutely nothing wrong.’ And you see these places are burning down.”
The only fires reported in Portland, Oregon, on Monday were smoke coming from the boiler room of a local high school and a mobile home engulfed in flames, according to Portland Fire & Rescue’s X account. No injuries were reported in either incident.
All that rhetoric is pure manure.
Because of all this fake chaos, which he alone is causing, he has stated that he may want to invoke the Insurrection Act.
Do you know what that means?
President Donald Trump said he would consider invoking the Insurrection Act to send the military into cities if courts block his deployment of National Guard troops.
“I’d do it if it was necessary. So far, it hasn’t been necessary. But we have an Insurrection Act for a reason. If I had to enact it, I’d do that,” Trump told reporters in the Oval Office on Oct. 6.
With that said let’s look at the Act he keeps threatening to invoke…..
The Insurrection Act is a US federal law that gives the president the power to deploy the military or federalize national guard troops inside the US to quell domestic uprisings.
The law is commonly referred to as the Insurrection Act of 1807, the year Thomas Jefferson, the president, signed it into law. But the modern-day Insurrection Act is an amalgamation of statutes passed between 1792 and 1871 outlining the role of US military forces in domestic law enforcement.
Generally, federal military forces are not allowed to carry out civilian law enforcement duties against US citizens except in times of emergency.
The law enables troops to take part in domestic law enforcement activities such as making arrests and performing searches, functions they are generally otherwise prohibited from engaging in.

The question is will Donny choose this course of action?
To that I say yes he most certainly will….he has to make a case with lies, misinformation and pure BS…..if he tries will the Supreme Courts back him up?
I think they will….but I have been mistaken before.
Thoughts?
I Read, I Write, You Know
“lego ergo scribo”
The theory floating around right now is that he, or more likely the people behind him, are creating these outrageous lies to prepare for eventually declaring martial law right before the mid-term elections in democratically controlled parts of the country.
Makes sense. You write the scenario, then you Make it Happen. ( He may be a sick deranged wobbly and aging old dude, but by damn he’s tough…)
I believe that is a good chance…..chuq
I want to be right about this, but my optimistic sense says maybe maybe not: i think we are wearying of Trump Drama and the Wicked Witch syndrome (“I;m melllltinnnnnnggg”) and more people are refusing to line up behind him in support. At the moment the Supreme Court may also be wearying of his nonsense, altnough when I look at the lineup I begin to wonder–there’s a couple of sketchy dudes in there, so…
The ultimate event will never happen, the one where he arrives with his armed troops, guns set to stun, and no one is there. They all went to Other Places and the city is empty. Maybe a dog or two, but otherwise pretty much deserted.
JUdy I have zero confidence in SCOTUS……chuq
He has been paving the way for the eventual implementation of the Insurrection Act, so it does seem inevitable. Hopefully, it will backfire on him, spurring people to openly resist.
Best wishes, Pete.
That is my hope but MAGA dolts are so consumed by his hatred that they follow him to Hell…..chuq
A dozen sanctuary states and a thousand sanctuary cities all applying nullification and defiance and overriding federal law and juristicion is not an insurrection ? Also encouraging resistance and violence and committing the same against federal law enforcement is not insurrection ? Huh ? Protecting criminals, dismissing their crimes and no longer protectiong citizen victims is not pure madness ?
If 06 January was not insurrection then this is not. Red states sending troops to blue states….sounds like a civil war….you are protecting DC and they are bigger criminals than any guy selling cigs on a street corner. chuq
A few hundred unarmed and drunk yokels with no command leadership does not an insurrection make and the dopey dem congress re fearing for their lives and Booobin’s “more serious threat than Civil War” is even more silly, esp when they had no chance of succeeding nor did DC have any fear re an inability to crush the silly nonsense so to insinuate J-6 as insurrection is just silly. Personally, I loved every minute of it seeing J-6 people challenge congress as just who do they think they are ? You are a vet, something I greatly respect and to call J-6 a threat is an insult to you and what our Vietnam era vets faced or same for those at Iwo Jima, Normandy and Gettysburg. Red states are not sending troops to blue states. The reds are not state militias or the Yankees. They are the federalized NATIONAL GUARD not promoting insurrection or tresspassing or invading but there to prevent it. Seems you also think the United States of America is the enemy just as blue mayors and governors. By the way, do you own a TV ? Ever, watch the streets of the alleged calm and safe burning and looting and assaults on federal officers ? Was Lincoln’s responsibility to send federals south after Ft Sumter a state invading a state issue ? No, it was half the nation and its elected leadership allegedly sworn to protect the Constitution attacking the United States. Also to prevent the nullification of the Supremacy Clause of the Constitution which is precisely what the blue states are doing. I’m sure you recall pre Civil War blue state nullification insanity. I remain delighted that Gen. Sherman swore to make Georgia howl. If we were both 20 years old again, we’d both be called up to join the NG and protect USA from blue state insurrection. I live in North Carolina now but I’d serve in the blue coat First New York Volunteers if I am called up.
What is Donny protecting the US from? These cities are elected officials and it should be the decision of the people of those citie4s to decide what is what not some made up crap from a draft dodger.
Blinders make all the difference for you. chuq
it sounds suspiciously like a six year old just heard a new word and is using it endlessssslyyyy
A well worn propaganda technique….repeat a lie long enough and it becomes fact (in their minds). chuq
One wonders who is whispering in his ear that this “insurrection” is taking place since it’s been proven time and again that he has no original thoughts (as is so clearly demonstrated when he goes off-script). Especially when the people who LIVE in the states where he is sending troops have emphatically stated that things are quiet.
Nan if these places are ‘war torn’ why is there no news coverage of this …..it is BS plain and simple. chuq
I have no idea why this is not being “observed’…. reservists from Texas.. a red state.. are being sent to Illinos (Chicago) a blue state, a thousand miles away, to “subjugate” Illnois citizens from demonstrating? I mean… the imagery in all this just simply is intended to cause a response. A “foreign” state sending troops to my state seems would piss me off a tad. Bullets will fly soon enough from all this… and that is exactly what Trump wants. He is declaring war on half of America… and he’s been vocal about it all!
I agree with you….Carl seems to think all this is some how saving the US from itself….where have we heard that load of crap before? chuq
