attempting to follow the orange man's intent has been a game with no end. here we are in domestic fare finding itself accompanied by the army. the curious level is rising;

President Trump said Saturday he will send troops to Portland, Oregon, “authorizing Full Force, if necessary” to handle what he referred to as domestic terrorism.

Trump made his announcement on social media, using the language of war.

He wrote that he was directing the U.S. Department of War to “provide all necessary Troops to protect War ravaged Portland.”

This marks a continuation of Trump’s unprecedented military deployments to American cities in the name of crime-fighting, only now it’s also being done for the stated purpose of combatting terrorism. That’s an important distinction and a definite escalation of the brewing tensions between the feds and Democrat-run cities.

Fighting “terrorism” as opposed to regular crime, is a much more serious mission. It carries potentially much more serious ramifications, particularly after renaming the Department of Defense the Department of War. If a rioter is arrested as a terrorist instead of a regular criminal, he or she would theoretically not be subject to all of the constitutional protections afforded in a regular criminal case, such as access to a lawyer, the right to due process, the right to remain silent, the right to a speedy trial, the right to a jury trial of one’s peers, and so forth. They could also be sent before military tribunals instead of civil criminal courts.............more..........
