*I get that we have a weak Black mayor like D.C. which makes us a a* seemingly good *target for a fascist takeover, but I really don’t think Chicago is going to yield to a military presence as easy as D.C. If it happens here I am afraid that trump will get the violent reaction he has been looking for.*
„Trump doesn’t have the power to take over police departments in other cities apart from Washington“
„President Donald Trump threatened to send [active-duty military personnel](https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/americas/us-politics/trump-military-veterans-mail-in-voting-b2810470.html) into America’s third-largest city to quell what he described as out-of-control crime at the hands of a liberal mayor and Democratic-run city and state governments.“
“We’re going to make our cities very, very safe. [Chicago](https://www.independent.co.uk/topic/chicago) is a mess. You have an incompetent mayor, grossly incompetent, and we’ll straighten that one out, probably next that’ll be our next one after this, and it won’t even be tough,” Trump said.“
„The president then claimed that the Windy City’s Black population, including “African American ladies, beautiful ladies,” were “screaming” for him to “please” come to Chicago.“
„The president also threatened to “bring in the regular military” for law enforcement purposes — an action that would be illegal under the [Posse Comitatus Act](https://www.independent.co.uk/news/donald-trump-california-law-banks-los-angeles-b2806515.html), an 1878 law limiting the military’s ability to conduct civilian law enforcement or enforce domestic policy in the United States.“
„The law was enacted in response to the occupation of former confederate states after the American Civil War during the Reconstruction period from 1865 to 1877.“
„Although each state has a National Guard that can be employed for law enforcement in emergency situations at the behest of a state’s governor, National Guard soldiers can’t be used for law enforcement if commanded by federal authorities.“
„Asked whether he’d spoken with Brandon Johnson, the Democratic politician who is the incumbent Chicago mayor, Trump said he has not. But he vowed to press on with his plan nonetheless.“
“Now, when we’re ready, we’ll go in and we’ll straighten out Chicago, just like we did DC. Chicago is very dangerous,” he said.“

Ok, so he wants to put military in Chicago, NYC, Seattle and Portland now?
Is he just searching for a city to pop-off for further military plans? Because that’s what it seems like.
With freedom and liberty for ~~all~~ some…
He’s pretty much declaring civil war at this point
He’s wanted vengeance on NYC fucking hating him his entire life.
So when are the state governments going to call up their national guards and defend themselves?
Who is to say during the midterm elections he doesn’t use the military to stand in front of voting locations and refuse entry?
This is what you get when you put a Convicted Criminal in Charge. He recently posted,
>He who saves his Country does not violate any Law.
Straight from Napoleon’s mindset to Donny’s mouth.
Between the ‚getting into heaven‘ comment, the cankles (and their defensiveness), and now his eyes all squinted all the time… are we sure he’ll be around next week?
Sorry Mr. Military man but I don’t work for you, you don’t work for my state or city, and Trump isn’t my President. Piss off.
The Republican Party and The Heritage Foundation are nothing short of terrorist organizations.
Welp. Looks like it’s time to enlist in the National Guard boys.
Maybe he should direct them to Jackson MS which consistently has the worst murder stats in the country. Will he? Hell no.
It’s because Epstein files are starting to be released.
This is going to end very badly! I don’t understand how the people taking the orders are letting this happen. This is insanity!
Ok, America. How much more?
MAGA is the rebranding and the resurgence of the Confederacy. Let’s start calling it what it is.
Trying to get back at Obama again, most likely. Wonder how far this will go? I thought Trump was shaken about his health enough to slow down his rampaging, when I read he was concerned about whether he was going to heaven or not. I guess not, from today’s reports.
Well, I’m sick of having my country’s halfway working system utterly upset for no reason whatever while those who do have operating mentalities in the courts are unable to do anything except feed headlines.
Gee, it’s almost as if this was part of ***Project 2025*** like everyone warned about, and yet we were told wasn’t a thing.
If the military does this, can we finally stop pretending that the troops are national heroes?
Pritzker will kick his ass.
Just a quick summary:
– No, MAGA and Trump/Epstein Republicans do not care
– Yes, this is an abuse of power and a Constitutional crisis to throw into the pile
– No, arguing with T/E Republicans won’t help
– Yes, there are a ton of red cities with way, way worse homicide, violent crime, rape, and other crime rates. That’s not what this is about
Fuck him. Fuck MAGA
When does the military start refusing orders? This is such an insane waste of money.
You know it’s so small of a point but look at what the President of the United States looks like…unbuttoned shirt, hat that’s his own merchandise, looks haggard and talks like that elderly person you know where you just kind of hope they exhaust themselves so you don’t have to listen.
Fuck man, we’ve got a lot of work to do. I’m in my 30s, beyond blessed to be where I’m at, and it’s depressing to look at where we are going.
The only way this turns around is worker solidarity. We need to stop working ASAP. A complete general strike across multiple sectors.
It’s pie in the sky thinking but god damn our history was built on small rebellions breaking empires. Our constitutional ideals are still noble and at its most granular most people really do want the same basic things. Food, bills paid, education, and knowing one day you can stop working if you want to. That is to say all we ask for is Dignity , Opportunity , and Representation.
By far the worst president in history.
that would be the point were we find out if the military is going to honor their oath to the constitution or will they be loyal to the pedophile n chief
This is not normal.
Don’t any of you understand what he’s doing??
We are in full blown fascist takeover of our country wake the fuck up !!!
HE WANTS YOU TO SHOOT EACH OTHER SO HE CAN DECLARE MARTIAL LAW AND END YOUR FREEDOMS, THEN RUSSIA CAN CONQUER YOU WITHOUT EVER FIRING A SHOT.
please do something
The military should do the right thing and remove the Russian asset from the White House.
Even by Trump standards this was one of the most bat shit crazy pressers of his life and the fact that Republican Senators and Congressmen, and the media are just shrugging it off instead of immediately impeaching and removing this fucking psycho is just beyond me.
Imagine, if Obama has said any of this how off the fucking rails Fox News would be.
Lets just hope the Governor of Illinois would warn his National Guard Commanders that if they follow an illegal order to deploy they will all be fired. And he should order the state police to detain any other Guardsman sent from other state for trespassing and gun violations.
For all conservatives fearmonger about how „dangerous“ Chicago is, they sure do seem to think that they’ll just roll over once the military shows up.
Do you want an American insurgency? Because *this* is how you get an American insurgency.
Im sorry but why is nothing being done about this? It feels like we’re finding out in real time that our constitution has no enforcement.
Chicago is 98th in violent crime. Memphis is number one. He doesn’t want to go into a red state though. It doesn’t fit his narrative.
I’m going to die of old age waiting for the don’t tread on me types to lift a finger against the treading
Pedo deploys army to distract from the fact he is a pedo.
2nd amendment fundamentalists will be rising up any moment now.
So basically he is going to put every large Blue city under martial law.
No its not war, it’s theater, to piss us off and keep us from the important questions.
How did a crappy high school teacher become a purveyor of illegally young girls for the rich and pervertedly cruel? Who was his main employer?
Governors need to mobilize their state police to defend our states against these invasions.
And if not the police, then maybe local militias, 1776 style.
This fucker is going out swinging because he’s on the death’s door with his cankles, catheter, obesity, McDonald’s arteries, and who knows how many other health conditions. The nation will celebrate in the streets when that finally happens.
