The Commander-in-Chief literally is in charge of the National Guard. I’m not sure you understand the meaning of seize.
And the precedent for the president to invoke the national guard on his own, and outside of the governor's request is exceedingly small and in this case, unprecedented.

I find it hilarious that the rioters are waiving Mexican flags

Here's how many individuals each of the last three presidents made leave the U.S., combining all methods (deportations, expulsions, and voluntary departures):
Barack Obama (2009-2017): Over 5 million
Donald Trump (2017-2021): Approximately 1.6 million to 2 million (includes early Title 42 expulsions)
Joe Biden (2021-Present): Over 4.4 million (includes the vast majority of Title 42 expulsions)
Now tell us how many they each let into the country so we have the net increase or decrease information.
Would it matter, or would it just be maga creating their own reality again?
Here’s a source, don’t be lazy. Considering the deportation numbers it looks like Trump was way behind, which isn’t surprising, he’s a failure at everything.

This. The MAGAs bleat on and on because their brains have been completely poisoned by propaganda.

Using the American flag to cover for authoritarian thug tactics? Shameful.
I find it fascinating the Democrats are all about law and order and principled due process when it comes to Kilargo Garcia and freaked out when his people "wrongly" deported him to El Salvador even though he had a standing deportation order. But when Trump is upholding the laws by deporting illegal migrants, they break out into riots and protests?
Democrats didn't freak out about Biden or Obama deporting people BECAUSE THEY DID IT UNDER THE CONSTRUCT OF OUR LAWS and at rates much higher than Trump did in his first term or now. Democrats are freaking out because people who are playing under the rules of our system, or worse, who are green card holders or natural born US citizens, are being rounded up extrajudiciously and sent off to foreign prisons. Wake up, the next person to be rounded up could be you.

If authoritarian means calling up the NG because the local and state officials refuse to react to the nuts rioting and attacking law enforcement and then arresting those attacking law enforcement - give me more of it.
That’s fine, Bush did it in 92 and Trump did it in 2020. Didn’t seem to help their election prospects much for the following term. it shows leadership weakness.

Solidarity? I guess you can say a bunch of people who are breaking the law, "solidarity."
My guess as to why most media is not covering it is because this behavior should not be encouraged.
And, you have some thing wrong in your post, OP.
The union leader was not falsely arrested. He was obstructing the work of ICE.
And, the person that was run over was again, attempting to obstruct. Play stupid games and all that.......
I am sure you say the same thing about Ashli Babbitt

This is the fact. There is one particularly unhinged activist in this thread (probably the OP), who keeps brining this up and trying to make a massive deal out of a situation where law enforcement followed protocol and showed their badges.
OMG, so a bunch of MEN are chasing down a woman and what the EFF is she supposed to think while she is being run down?

Anonymous wrote:Maga, please take a second to reflect. Think back to yesteryear, before the GOP decided to make illegal immigration the new boogeyman. Most likely, this subject rarely crossed your mind. This isn’t because it wasn’t an issue. It has always been an issue. A complicated one. Neither party has ever made much progress on the matter. But for the vast majority of us, undocumented immigrants have never been problematic in our daily lives. In fact, they improve it with their skilled labor, contributions to the economy, etc. So please take a second to ask yourself WHY this became issue #1 for you. Ask yourself if you are really seeing evidence that these people, as a whole, are destroying our country the way the GOP has you believing. Sure, in some areas it is a bigger problem. Yes, it is still an issue that needs fixed. But the GOP cherry picking some cases where undocumented immigrants are committing crimes while ignoring our home grown criminals does not give an accurate picture.
It is not hyperbole to say that this country is in serious trouble and things can very likely escalate to the point where many of us will need to flee…and become undocumented immigrants in another country. You know that’s a thing, right? Americans as undocumented immigrants? Maybe you think this won’t apply to you because you love everything that Trump does and would never want to leave. Consider the fact that the precedent of lawlessness that he has set will not just go away. If a democrat as lawless as Trump took office, things could change for you quite rapidly.
Please. Think about the issues that actually affect your daily lives and the lives of our most vulnerable citizens. Use that to guide you. Not the scare tactics your party is using to make you think this particular situation is so dire that only a lawless strongman like Trump can handle it.
Well said, but this is not about our most vulnerable citizens. Ultimately, this is about our republic and the rule of law. When "federal agents" can snatch people off the streets and send them to another country's prison "just because" and without a hearing or any "due process" it digresses quickly to anyone who doesn't show fealty to the ruler and "the state" - hitler, stalin, kings and authoritarians use the same playbooks for their own power and wealth. EVERYTHING this country has stood for for 250 years is at risk. As Benjamin Franklins said, "...as long as we can keep it" - we are on the precipice RIGHT NOW between the US Constitution and the actual rule of law, or this BS manufactured crap at a Home Depot of all places, so the likes of Donald Trump and Stephen Miller because our new leaders for the rest of ours, and our children's lives.

There are plenty of countries you can go live in where they can just disappear people. Don't be such an appeasing weakling and let this country become one of them.
Have you no pride in this country? My military veteran relatives would have been very disappointed in your attitude but they would have fought to protect you anyway. I am glad some of the older generation had sacrificed a lot for this country, did not live to see this.

Other people who pay more attention to current events know that the president only calls up the National Guard at the request of the state's governor. Not against their wishes.
Trump did not receive a request last night and the National Guard was not called up.
