As the situation in regard to report immigrants escalated, and the army may be used against Americans, do you believe there’s a way back, or is this a one way street to civil war?

    Every state has a national guard. I’m actually really surprised the California guard followed Trump’s illegal nationalisation when Newsom clearly stated he didn’t authorise it, as is his right.

      Newsome has the authority to have state police and the CBI to arrest guard members who don’t follow the order to stand down.

      He won’t, and I don’t know if I believe the state police would side with a Democrat, but the possibility is there.

      Of course, there are MANY things that politicians have had the authority to do to stop things since January, yet they haven’t.
