      No, and if there were, it would likely give actual legal grounds for the federal government to invoke the Insurrection Act which would allow domestic deployment of the US military - not National Guard, full military. Local PD isn’t doing much for the same reason.

      • Local PD aren’t doing anything to stop this because the police forces are mainly staffed by low-IQ Republicans who, if anything, will protect ICE with the argument that ICE is federal and therefore apparently can ignore all laws.

        Seems all you need to use to get the threat of the insurrection act is a snow shovel. Go big or go home I say. And even without it, he deployed marines in so cal.
