MODERATORS
Instead of focusing on what is actually happening with National Guard and Marines being deployed, we see the pattern of pointless arguing in circles about why the candidate lost in the comments below. Analysis Paralysis is the exact intention for articles like this. This helps the current criminal administration continue their behavior.
The fact that people wish that she had won is the real problem.
Missed the whole point of what I said. The election is over, move on. Take this energy and prepare for the very real chance of civil war. Clearly, there is an administration in place that is pushing hard for this outcome.
This reminds me of another woman presidential candidate who was also right about Trump. I'm starting to see a pattern.
seems lot of latio voters just could not pull the dial for a female president, even if it meant voting against their interests
Latinos have been taught historically to bet against themselves
Saying this as a Latino myself, the misogyny is extremely deep rooted and colorism also has a yoke on the community. I really hope this opens their eyes but don’t hold your breath
It was an opinion piece by a guest columnist.
Who is a piece of shit, but regardless.

That an editor then chose to publish. What's your point?
Nearly every respectable major news outlet that has commentary tries to invite commentary from multiple sides. They also probably didn't know what he would become or his ulterior motives.

Maybe that's part of the issue though?
If Jimmy Allred says it’s raining, and W. Lee O’Daniel says it isn’t raining, Texas newspapermen quote them both, and don’t look out the window to see which is lying, and to tell the readers what the truth is at the moment.
I mean is anyone surprised? The media's capitulation and normalization of a felon rapist traitor and his enablers is why we are where we are. Because drama makes them more money and this nation lacks the rules necessary to prevent the media from lying to Americans.

I am genuinely surprised that we made it four years under his first term without getting this far in, but we're speed running to military dictatorship inside six months.
If you actually read the article it is absolutely swimming in reactionary revanchism. There's everything from the author defending Trump's association with the Charlottesville rioters to whining about MSNBC sound-bites to referring to immigration during the Biden Presidency as a "Border Invasion".
This isn't even the boilerplate Politico "Lying when their lips are moving" false-equivalency. This is Derek Hunter, a talk radio frothing fascist and senior columnist for Townhall.com, doing exactly what his corporate handlers pay him to do.

Hillary was right. Harris was right. Misogyny ignored them.
Americans didn't vote for Hillary or Harris because apparently they wanted a whiny bitch to be president instead.
Lets not pretend the presidential election is all about gender and nothing else. Thats just not true.

The President deploying Marines inside the U.S. without invoking the Insurrection Act, declaring an emergency, or getting local/state approval — especially just to respond to peaceful protests — is unlawful on multiple levels:
- Violates DoD Directive 3025.18 – Active-duty military (including Marines) can’t engage in domestic law enforcement unless explicitly authorized.
- Violates the First Amendment – Peaceful protest is protected. Military suppression = unconstitutional. (NAACP v. Claiborne Hardware Co., 458 U.S. 886).
- Violates the Fourth Amendment – Military detentions/searches are illegal without cause. (Indianapolis v. Edmond, 531 U.S. 32).
- Ignores Posse Comitatus limits – PCA (18 U.S.C. § 1385) applies to Army/Air Force, but DoD extends it to all branches.
- Unlawful military orders – Troops must disobey unconstitutional orders (UCMJ Art. 92; U.S. v. Calley, 48 C.M.R. 19).
- Impeachable abuse of power – Violates Article II, Section 4 of the Constitution.
This isn’t just controversial — it’s flat-out illegal.

- EXCEPTIONS BASED ON MILITARY SERVICE. By policy, Posse Comitatus Act restrictions (as well as other restrictions in this Instruction) are applicable to the Department of the Navy (including the Marine Corps) with such exceptions as the Secretary of Defense may authorize in advance on a case-by-case basis.
LISTED EXCEPTIONS
a. Such exceptions shall include requests from the AG for assistance pursuant to section
873(b) of Reference (al).
b. Requests for approval of other exceptions should be made by a senior official of the
civilian law enforcement agency concerned, who verifies that:
(1) The size or scope of the suspected criminal activity poses a serious threat to the
interests of the United States and enforcement of a law within the jurisdiction of the civilian
agency would be seriously impaired if the assistance were not provided because civilian assets
are not available to perform the mission; or
(2) Civilian law enforcement assets are not available to perform the mission, and
temporary assistance is required on an emergency basis to prevent loss of life or wanton
destruction of property.
4. MILITARY READINESS. Assistance may not be provided if such assistance could
adversely affect military preparedness. Implementing documents issued by the Heads of the
DoD Components shall ensure that approval for the disposition of equipment is vested in
officials who can assess the effect of such disposition on military preparedness.
5. APPROVAL AUTHORITY. Requests by civilian law enforcement officials for use of DoD
personnel to provide assistance to civilian law enforcement agencies shall be forwarded to the
appropriate approval authority.
a. The Secretary of Defense is the approval authority for requests for direct assistance in
support of civilian law enforcement agencies, including those responding with assets with the
potential for lethality, except for the use of emergency authority as provided in subparagraph
1.b.(3) of this enclosure and in Reference (c), and except as otherwise provided below.
b. Requests that involve Defense Intelligence and Counterintelligence entities are subject to
approval by the Secretary of Defense and the guidance in DoDD 5240.01(Reference (ar)) and
Reference (j).

c. The Secretaries of the Military Departments and the Directors of the Defense Agencies
may, in coordination with the ASD(HD&GS), approve the use of DoD personnel:
(1) To provide training or expert advice in accordance with paragraphs 1.e. and 1.f. of
this enclosure.
(2) For equipment maintenance in accordance with paragraph 1.d. of this enclosure.
(3) To monitor and communicate the movement of air and sea traffic in accordance with
subparagraphs 1.d.(5)(b) 1 and 4 of this enclosure.
d. All other requests, including those in which subordinate authorities recommend
disapproval, shall be submitted promptly to the ASD(HD&GS) for consideration by the
Secretary of Defense, as appropriate.
e. The views of the CJCS shall be obtained on all requests that are considered by the
Secretary of Defense or the ASD(HD&GS), that otherwise involve personnel assigned to a
unified or specified command, or that may affect military preparedness.
f. All requests that are to be considered by the Secretary of Defense or the ASD(HD&GS)
that may involve the use of Reserve Component personnel or equipment shall be coordinated
with the ASD(M&RA). All requests that are to be considered by the Secretary of Defense or the
ASD(HD&GS) that may involve the use of NG personnel also shall be coordinated with the
Chief, NGB. All requests that are to be considered by the Secretary of Defense or the
ASD(HD&GS) that may involve the use of NG equipment also shall be coordinated with the
Secretary of the Military Department concerned and the Chief, NGB.
Only illegal if someone enforces the law, and I have a sneaking suspicion the chances of that are low
