“-I WILL MAKE CLEAR TO MOVE THOUSANDS OF TROOPS FROM OVERSEAS TO PROTECT OUR OWN BORDERS. WE HAVE TO GET OUR ACT TOGETHER WE HAVE TO BE ABLE TO DO IT FOR OURSELVES”

The Posse Comitatus act forbids the military from being used as domestic law enforcement. However, it would seem to me that using them to track down and expel invaders would not violate the PC act.

Put the US troops on the Mexican side of the border by agreement with Mexico.

I keep this handy, describes when US military can be used in the country.

Insurrection Act
10 U.S.C. §§ 331-335
Sec. 331. Federal aid for State governments
Whenever there is an insurrections in any State against its government, the President
may, upon the request of its legislature or of its governor if the legislature cannot be
convened, call into Federal service such of the militia of the other States, in the number
requested by that State, and use such of the armed forces, as he considers necessary to
suppress the insurrection.

Sec. 332. Use of militia and armed forces to enforce Federal authority
Whenever the President considers that unlawful obstructions, combinations, or
assemblages, or rebellion against the authority of the United States, make it impracticable
to enforce the laws of the United States in any State by the ordinary course of judicial
proceedings, he may call into Federal service such of the militia of any State, and use
such of the armed forces, as he considers necessary to enforce those laws or to suppress
the rebellion.

Sec. 333. Interference with State and Federal law
The President, by using the militia or the armed forces, or both, or by any other means,
shall take such measures as he considers necessary to suppress, in a State, any
insurrection, domestic violence, unlawful combination, or conspiracy, if it—

(1) so hinders the execution of the laws of that State, and of the United States
within the State, that any part or class of its people is deprived of a right, privilege,
immunity, or protection named in the Constitution and secured by law, and the
constituted authorities of that State are unable, fail, or refuse to protect that right,
privilege, or immunity, or to give that protection; or

(2) opposes or obstructs the execution of the laws of the United States or impedes
the course of justice under those laws.
In any situation covered by clause (1), the State shall be considered to have denied the
equal protection of the laws secured by the Constitution.

Sec. 334. Proclamation to disperse
Whenever the President considers it necessary to use the militia or the armed forces under
this chapter, he shall, by proclamation, immediately order the insurgents or those
obstructing the enforcement of the laws to disperse and retire peaceably to their abodes
within a limited time.

Posse Comitatus always had loopholes and it has been gutted in the post 9/11 era.

————

Of course the military can not be used to control citizens like hitler did in nazi germany, but that does not mean that we pay for a military to exclusively fight foreign wars for foreign people in the name of “American interests”. That term has been used by our corrupt government for years now, just so they can send our men to take care of their interests.

Our military is to fight for the USA, which means protecting our borders and rounding up the enemy no matter where in the USA they are. Why else would we have a military? The brainwashing has to end.
