“If I invoked it, I would do it”: Donald Trump could draw an exceptional law to send the Army to US cities

The president of the United States, Donald Trump, spoke of the insurrection law, a law that allows us to mobilize certain armed forces in particular circumstances in US cities, despite the opposition of local elected officials.

Donald Trump said Monday, October 6, October 6 that he could establish an emergency state to send the Army to US cities, after deploying troops in Chicago (North) and Portland (Northwest) with the Council of local chosen officials or against judicial decisions.

“There is a reason why we have the ‘Act Insurrection.

The “insurrection law” was last used in 1992, during the riots and consecutive looting of the acquittal of police officers accused of having passed Rodney King tobacco, a black man.

The White House frequently uses the term “insurrection”, either to criticize certain judges or designate mobilizations against federal immigration police officers (ICE), which implement the massive expulsion policy of immigrants in an irregular situation sought by Donald Trump.

“When a judge gives the powers that the Constitution delegated the President, it is a form of legal insurrection,” said one of the closest advisors of US President Stephen Miller on Monday.

A deployment similar to Portland was temporarily blocked twice on Saturday and Sunday by a federal judge, Karin J. Immingut, who emphasized that there was no “insurrection in Portland or threat to national security.”

Donald Trump also signed a decree on Saturday for sending 300 national guards to Chicago to “protect federal agents”, this against the council of elected official officials.

He also described Portland as a city that “burns”, while a minister called Chicago as a “war zone.” The localized and limited clashes took place in each of the two cities between the protesters and the police, but neither Chicago nor Portland were Monday’s prey to generalized disturbances.
