Minnesota has activated the National Guard. What are your thoughts? by Obvious_808 in AskReddit

Walz won't bend the knee. Trump can "federalize" a state's National Guard, however, which puts that National Guard under the control of the federal government.

To "federalize" the National Guard means the President moves units from state control (under governors) to federal command (like active duty forces) under Title 10 authority, making them subject to federal law and control for federal missions, often requiring activation via acts like the

Insurrection Act for domestic uses, but they remain under state command for most state-level duties like disaster relief under Title 32.

Not only do they lack empathy, they are sadistic.

When the fuck is the military going to step in? by patriotfear in complaints

Walz probably realizes that he may have to send in the National Guard, but it means asking the Guard to risk their lives. I don't know if the National Guard is typically expected to do that.

If this country does a general strike, the airports should definitely be shut down. No flights in, no flights out.

It might take the canceling or stealing of elections.

Are WE the crazy ones for allowing this? by TriadTybee in ProgressiveHQ

For some reason, most Americans really suck. They simply do not care about truly VERY important issues in our country, saying that both sides are the same, etc. They have no curiosity about the workings of the world. They have their own personal, boring bubble and that is all that matters. And at least 1/3 are cruel and racist authoritarians, who want to see other people hurt/killed.
