The Trump admin says Trump is authorized to deploy the Texas National Guard to Chicago under the specific law below. They say there is:

- (2) a rebellion or danger of a rebellion against the authority of US
- (3) the President is “unable with regular forces to execute the laws.”

The Origins of 10 U.S.C. § 12406
The final piece of our historical puzzle is 10 U.S.C. § 12406, which Defendants represent
supplies the authority for the deployment of federalized National Guard troops into Illinois. In its
current incarnation, it provides:
Whenever
(1) the United States, or any of the Commonwealths or possessions, is invaded or is in danger of invasion by a foreign nation;
(2) there is a rebellion or danger of a rebellion against the authority of the Government of the United States; or
(3) the President is unable with regular forces to execute the laws of the United States;
the President may call into Federal service members and units of the National Guard of any State in such numbers as he considers necessary to repel invasion, suppress rebellion, or execute those laws.
10 U.S.C. § 12406.

What he not saying is that his friends and cronies invested a fortune in Argentina since their guy Milei won, they stand to lose a big chunk of those fortunes the way things are going, and Argentina’s elections are in two weeks and we are tampering in them to bail Milei out.

Meiselas: Trump says he’s focusing right now on laying off the Democratic agencies and government employees, whatever that means. Again, completely pathetic behavior, and in normal times, this would be impeachable and/or 25th Amendment territory.

Our nation's federal employees are more than just numbers on a spreadsheet.

They make sure we have clean water.

They protect us from financial fraud.

They provide healthcare to our communities.

They make our government actually work for people.

Do not forget this.

Trump: "AI is based on information. I hope they're right about information. I don't know. You've gotta make a lot of money to-- there's gotta be a lot of information out there, but that seems to be pretty hot. We're leading the world on information on AI."

WILL CAIN: Since it's President Trump calling up the National Guard, any other governors that decline to do what you did you think would be in violation of the regulatory, statutory authority of President Trump?

GREG ABBOTT: They are in violation
