Trump’s openly talking about invoking the Insurrection Act with zero insurrection in sight. He’s inventing chaos in Portland and Chicago, and even saying he’d use it if courts or local officials are ‘holding us up’. Wild how he didn’t bother using it during the actual insurrection on January 6.

To make it simple for everyone: The Posse Comitatus Act prohibits the usage of federal military forces to enforce domestic laws within the United States. However, there is an exception to the Posse Comitatus Act, known as the Insurrection Act, which allows the President to bypass Posse Comitatus in the event of insurrection. Mind you, the actions of Pritzker and Johnson over the last few months, openly engaging in rebellion and refusing to enforce the laws in Chicago, meet the legal criteria for “insurrection”, which is also extremely vague and essentially up to POTUS’ discretion. In conclusion, the Supreme Court confirmed that if Trump wants to send troops to Chicago, he will need to bypass Posse Comitatus by invoking the Insurrection Act. Meaning, that the only thing standing between Trump legally sending troops to Chicago, and any city he wants, is a public proclamation that he is invoking the Insurrection Act and a public warning for the insurrectionists to disperse, before sending in the troops. So until Trump publicly announces that he is invoking the Insurrection Act, he’s not allowed to send the troops in. But all he has to do is give the order. It takes two seconds. Trump has confirmed many times that he is willing to do this. Here he is on 10/6/2025 saying he will invoke the Insurrection Act if he has to.

These people are in a COMPLETE PANIC after Stephen Miller confirmed the INSURRECTION ACT is being considered. He says what reporters are DOCUMENTING on CAMERA represents a "dystopian event" and shows "pseudo events" and that there is NO PROBLEM in Portland or Chicago. WE AREN'T BLIND! INSURRECTION ACT!

BREAKING: President Trump just confirmed that there will be VERY SERIOUS CONSEQUENCES for those who are participating in the "CRIMINAL INSURRECTION" happening across America!! There will be LAW AND ORDER no matter what the INCOMPETENT Democrats say! Trump also said that he's CONSIDERING invoking the Insurrection Act: "I’d do it if it’s NECESSARY. So far it hasn’t been necessary. We have an Insurrection Act for a reason. If I had to enact it, I would do it. If people were being KlLLED, or courts were holding us up, or mayors or governors were holding us up, I’d do that." It's FAR PAST TIME to invoke it! START ARRESTING the TREAS0N0US TRAIT0RS! Hold these people accountable!!!

Trump isn’t talking about the Insurrection Act by accident. This is the plan: stir up chaos, use it as an excuse to crack down on people’s rights, and weaken our democracy.

Will Trump invoke the Insurrection Act? The media screams "fascism," but Grant used it to fight the KKK and Eisenhower used it desegregate schools. Now Trump could use it to stop the chaos in Minneapolis. These are the FACTS about the Insurrection Act that the Left desperately wants buried—watch now. ⤵️

Report: “The Insurrection Act, under what conditions or terms would you invoke it?” Trump: “I'd do it if it was necessary…If I had to enact it, I'd do that. If people were being killed and courts were holding us up, or governors, or mayors were holding us up. Sure, I'd do that.”

WELKER: Are you seriously looking at invoking the Insurrection Act? VANCE: The president is looking at all of his options, right now he hasn't felt he needed to. But we have to remember we are talking about this because crime has gotten out of control in our cities WELKER: Crime is down in both Chicago and Portland VANCE: Crime is down in Chicago and Portland often because they are so overwhelmed at the local level they are not even keeping the statistics properly

🤣They are LOSING their mind on The View after Trump threatened to use the Insurrection Act to stop the violent uprisings in cities like Portland and Chicago. "But January 6" is the ONLY defense they have. Democrats have NOTHING of substance left. Completely DEFEATED!

Dan Goldman: Donald Trump said it himself. He wants it to lead to the Insurrection Act. He wants there to be so much chaos that he says, we need to send the military in. And then once the Insurrection Act is invoked, he can say, we can't have an election.

🇺🇸 TRUMP: "I COULD USE THE INSURRECTION ACT IMMEDIATELY IF I WANTED TO" “If I had to send in the Army or the Marines, I’d do that in a heartbeat. You know, you have a thing called the Insurrection Act. Do you know that I could use that immediately, and no judge can even challenge you on that? But I haven’t chosen to do it because I haven’t felt we need it. If I wanted to, I could use the Insurrection Act. The Insurrection Act has been used routinely by presidents. And if I needed it, that would mean I could bring in the Army, the Marines. I could bring in whoever I want. But I haven’t chosen to use it. I hope you give me credit for that.” Source: Rapid Response 47, 60 Minutes

Trump invoking the Insurrection Act is not a conspiracy. The evidence shows us that there was an insurrection. The evidence suggests that he invoked it and he has all but told us that he did. He made a point of telling us that they are paid. First, you arrest the foot soldiers, and then you arrest those who paid them. Nothing Can Stop What Is Coming.

CNN Guest Stuns Host and Viewers YES, Trump can invoke the Insurrection Act. Former DHS official Ken Cuccinelli came in with a tough dose of reality when Brianna Keilar asked, “Do you think that President Trump should invoke the Insurrection Act because of the unrest in California?” “Yes is the short answer,” he said. “Just as it was done in LA back in 1992 (Rodney King riots).” “President has made it clear that, unlike his first term, he’s willing to use it. And I think we all take him seriously on that.” Keilar interrupted and pressed him on the legality, asking: “Are you saying that it’s really just a matter of if they don’t have enough Guard, then they can go ahead and deploy active duty military like these Marines have been readied, and that’s okay because of the Insurrection Act?” Cuccinelli didn’t blink, “That’s exactly what the Insurrection Act says.”

Virginia passed a law dictating how January 6 must be taught in public schools. Federal prosecutors charged over 1,500 people for that day. Seditious conspiracy. Assault. Obstruction. The one charge never filed: insurrection under 18 U.S.C. § 2383. HB 333 passed 21-19 and heads to the governor’s desk. If a school covers the topic, teachers must call it an insurrection. Any other characterization violates the statute. Courts required proof. Classrooms require compliance. That asymmetry should bother everyone — regardless of how you feel about January 6. h/t conservative_Barbie
