On June 6, 2025, the federal government initiated immigration raids across the City of Los Angeles. Protests swiftly followed, and some individuals involved in those protests were unruly and even violent. State and local law enforcement responded. The following day, President Trump ordered that members of the California National Guard be federalized, and thereupon assumed control of those forces.

At this early stage of the proceedings, the Court must determine whether the President followed the congressionally mandated procedure for his actions. He did not. His actions were illegal"both exceeding the scope of his statutory authority and violating the Tenth Amendment to the United States Constitution. He must therefore return control of the California National Guard to the Governor of the State of California forthwith.

A federal jury and judge acquitted a 21-year-old woman from Peru on Thursday of illegally entering a national defense area and military reservation after she crossed the Rio Grande from Mexico into Texas last month, in what lawyers say is the first trial of an immigrant since the Trump administration declared parts of the New Mexico and Texas border as a military zone. read more

#50 If you would read instead of being the obtuse little b***h that you are, you would learn militias existed in the states as a legacy of English common law. The Founders saw a need to regulate them and that's what they did.

Excluding noncitizens contravenes the Fourteenth Amendment Section 2 first sentence.

Representatives shall be apportioned among the several States according to their respective numbers, counting the whole number of persons in each State, excluding Indians not taxed.

Certainly if there was anything in the files, Biden would have done the right thing and prosecuted those involved? Right?

Farmers and fishermen have their own chapter of the bankruptcy code, Chapter 12.

If the farmer can't reorganize and pay the mortgage on the farm and equipment then it will be foreclosed by the lender. If there is no mortgage the farm and equipment will be sold by a bankruptcy trustee and proceeds distributed to creditor in accord with the code. You can bet there is a mortgage otherwise why the bankruptcy.

In the late 80's and early 90's my wife's step FIL went through 2 chapter 12s. He farmed about 2000 acres near Boswell, OK. He owned about 800 that had been in his family for over 100 years. He was born, raised and lived his entire life on that land. He leased about another 1200 and farmed mainly soybeans and wheat. He had high end cattle (I've forgotten the breed) and all the requisite tractors and equipment to run such and operation. I once spent 8 hours in the cab of a huge John Deere tractor pulling a three gang of soybean planters. Tractor was nice, AC, stereo, air ride seat, power steering and brakes. Set the rpms at 2500 then its just shifting the auto trans between 2nd and 3rd to slow and speed up. Cooler of beer and a few joints, it was a blast.

The farm didn't survive the financial crisis (think 90's bank crisis) and he lost it all. The morning he was to be evicted he took a bath, shaved, put on his best cologne and Sunday go to meeting clothes. Walked into the living room, pulled a 22 rifle from the gun cabinet, put it to his forehead and pulled the trigger. My MIL was upstairs and heard the shot.
