[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This all stems from the EO Trump signed in January  declaring a national emergency at the southern U.S. border

The theory is trump will invoke the Insurrection Act of 1807 on April 20, 2025, followed by him declaring martial law. (The Insurrection Act grants U.S. presidents the power to deploy the military into states for civilian law enforcement.)

He could theoretically do this if the "emergency" isn't solved after 90 days.

Even a month ago, I woild have said conspiracy rumor unthinkable.
Now...who knows?

What happens if it goes over the 90 days?  It seems like doing this on Easter would make him even more unpopular. [/quote]

I mean, no one knows right? I would have thought this an impossible thing, but there are cracks now. Universities and law firms are standing uo to him. SCOTUS is not on his side 100 %,, judges are ruling against him. Approval ratings are way down. WHo knows what his addled brain will do to try to maintain power?[/quote]
