“Undermining the rule of law”? How? And, news flash: the Marines and National Guard are not in LA to “liberate” it. They are there because “mostly peaceful” protests regularly turn into riots which destroy other people’s property and physically harm innocent citizens.

Trump used the word “liberate,” and I specifically say the troops were there to protect property and personnel. See here: “And most sensible citizens, no matter what they think of President Donald Trump, don’t want to see protests turn violent and footage of young U.S. Marines and National Guard being deployed on U.S. soil to 'protect federal property and personnel.'"As for the rule of law, he has invoked the 1798 Alien Enemies Act to justify the deportation of immigrants without due process. That’s a stretch, as are so many of his executive actions. Thanks for reading, Dean.
