Why does posse comitatus not apply here? Genuinely confused
Laws only apply when enforced. Who’s going to enforce it?
They’re technically not being used to do law enforcement or enforce marshal law.
They’re guarding federal buildings. Which then frees up the federal agents that normally guard them, which isn’t all that many- most fed buildings are guarded by private security. You don’t need a special agent to post up at a metal detector.
It’s a bit of a loophole and pretty dubious, but SCOTUS will let him get away with it.
Are the protests still going?
Good. Stay safe protestors
