@Nonilex #PortlandME did that even before Trump was elected... Move services to outside of the city so it's not an "eyesore" to the gentrified newcomers!

@justbob You know as well as I, there are reasons why folks would rather camp out than stay in a shelter. But yeah, moving the shelter to that area was a total #BellRiots move on the part of the city. #Unhoused become unseen and therefore no longer exist! That's BS!

The president’s power to deploy troops domestically: an explainer

By Kelsey Dallas
Updated on Oct. 28 at 9:16 p.m.

Since June, President Donald Trump has ordered several #NationalGuard deployments within the United States, often against the wishes of the Democratic governors of the states where troops are being sent. The resulting legal battles have put a spotlight on the president’s authority to federalize troops and use them domestically. How far, exactly, does this power extend?

"Overview:
This document explores President Trump's authority to deploy National Guard troops domestically, highlighting legal frameworks, recent deployments, and ongoing court challenges.

Presidential Authority and Legal Framework

- The Constitution grants Congress the power to call forth the militia, while the president commands troops under Article II.
- The Militia Act of 1792 allows the president to call troops for domestic insurrections or to enforce U.S. laws.
- Trump has invoked 10 U.S.C. § 12406, which permits federalizing National Guard troops to address foreign invasions, rebellions, or law enforcement needs.
- Legal challenges focus on whether conditions in cities like Los Angeles, Portland, and Chicago meet the criteria for federal troop deployment.

Recent Deployments and Legal Challenges

- Trump has deployed National Guard troops to cities with Democratic governors, citing rising crime rates and the need for federal law enforcement support.
- Legal disputes have arisen, particularly in Chicago, where a judge ruled the deployment unnecessary, and similar rulings occurred in Los Angeles and Portland.
- The 9th Circuit Court has paused lower court orders blocking deployments, emphasizing deference to presidential authority in determining troop necessity.

Key Legal Cases and Acts

- Martin v. Mott (1827) established that a president's decision to call up militia cannot be questioned, though interpretations vary today regarding judicial review.
- The Posse Comitatus Act (1878) limits military involvement in domestic law enforcement, which has been a point of contention in recent deployments.
- The Insurrection Act allows broader presidential authority to deploy troops without the limitations of the Posse Comitatus Act, enabling action when law enforcement is impracticable.

Future Implications

- Trump has suggested he may invoke the Insurrection Act if other legal avenues fail.
- The Supreme Court's upcoming ruling on the Chicago deployment could clarify the extent of presidential power under Section 12406 and its implications for future troop deployments."

Pentagon readying thousands of Guard ‘reaction forces’ as U.S. mission widens

Alex Horton and David Ovalle , The Washington Post
Thu, October 30, 2025 at 3:43 PM EDT

Excerpt: "The mandate, along with the growing presence of federal and immigration enforcement officers, suggests further military deployments within the United States could grow in size and scope. The deployments, which President Donald Trump has described as a bid to quell violence and crime, have infuriated Democratic governors in multiple states, who have fought the president’s deployments through litigation.

"The Defense Department did not respond to a request for comment. A defense official, speaking on the condition of anonymity to describe military planning, said the Pentagon is 'revising plans for the employment of [National Guard Reaction Forces] to guarantee their ability to assist federal, state and local law enforcement in quelling civil disturbances.'

After cuts to #FoodStamps, #Trump administration ends government’s annual report on #hunger in America

By PAUL WISEMAN
Updated 6:01 PM EDT, September 20, 2025

WASHINGTON (AP) — "The Trump administration is ending the federal government’s annual report on hunger in America, stating that it had become 'overly politicized' and 'rife with inaccuracies.'

"The decision comes two and a half months after President Donald Trump signed legislation sharply reducing #FoodAid to the poor. The Congressional Budget Office has estimated that the tax and spending cuts bill Republicans muscled through Congress in July means 3 million people would not qualify for food stamps, also known as #SNAP benefits.

"The decision to scrap the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s Household Food Security Report was first reported by The Wall Street Journal.

"In a press release Saturday, the USDA said the 2024 report, to be released Oct. 22, would be the last."

New #Trump Order Among ‘Scariest Things I’ve Seen in US Politics,’ #CivilRights Attorney Says

The new order, he says, would essentially allow “random #fascist #vigilantes” to “sign up to be a #Brownshirt” for Trump’s militarized occupation forces.

Stephen Prager
Aug 26, 2025

"An executive order signed Monday by US President Donald Trump may permit 'random #FascistVigilantes' to help him #crackdown on protests across the country, according to one prominent civil rights lawyer.

"The new order, which comes amid wider concern about Trump’s #militarized takeover of #WashingtonDC, directs Secretary of Defense #PeteHegseth to ensure that each state’s #NationalGuard is equipped to 'assist Federal, State, and local law enforcement in quelling civil disturbances and ensuring the public safety.'

The dystopian "#FreedomCities" dream fueling #ElonMusk's destruction

Tech's plans for #BillionaireRule expose why Musk wants to end government by the people

By Amanda Marcotte
Senior Writer
Published March 17, 2025

"In our cynical times, most people are familiar enough with doublespeak to understand that anything called a 'freedom city' is likely to be the opposite. It's a sign of the delusional self-confidence in their own mendacious powers that the tech oligarchs who are financing this idiotic idea insist on going with that branding anyway. Investigative reporters Vittoria Elliott and Caroline Haskins published an in-depth report on this scheme for Wired earlier this month. What immediately becomes clear is that what the Silicon Valley billionaire class considers 'freedom cities' is simply neo-feudalism, a plan to end the concept of citizenship and make every working person a serf whose entire life is controlled by the whims of their boss."

So, here are some dark thoughts... Cutting of #USAID cripples other countries, causing them to fall into chaos (not to mention all the stuff going on with the US threatening to abandon #NATO and #Ukraine). #Trump & #Musk are also crippling the US #economy, #PublicHealth, #education, etc., so people will riot, then Trump declares #MartialLaw. Just saying... The #BellRiots might end up being bloody -- and we lose anyways. Unless we can get everyone on board -- including military and folks with big guns. This isn't looking good. We should consider what could be unleashed on us all. And not just us, but the world. And strongmen like #Putin are just waiting to take advantage of the chaos the US is sowing... What a mess!!!

So, in #PortlandMaine, they built a new homeless shelter -- on the outskirts of the city! A location that's hard to get to unless one has a car (I know, I used to live out that way). Don't want all the rich folks who have moved into the city to see all the people that unaffordable housing has displaced!

Concerns rise over safety of unhoused community in Portland after recent deaths

The two men were discovered dead in the woods near a walking path commonly used by those experiencing homelessness in the area.

by Pearl Small, February 11, 2025

PORTLAND, Maine — "Concerns are growing about the safety of Portland's unhoused community—especially during Maine's frigid winter months—after the bodies of two men were discovered along a well-traveled path between a grocery store and the city's new homeless shelter.

"Portland police confirmed that William Liese and Lee Thomas Johnson were found dead Monday morning in a wooded area near Hannaford and the Portland Homeless Services Center (HSC). Their cause and manner of death have not been determined.

"The city had activated its emergency warming center the night before due to the cold temperatures.

"A city spokesperson stated that the HSC had available beds that night and did not turn anyone away. Staff working the warming center at First Parish Church also did not turn anyone away, according to the executive director of Commonspace, the group that runs the center.

"However, Courtney Bass, an advocate for those experiencing homelessness, argued that a warming center should be open 24/7, not just during extreme weather conditions. 'The 15 degrees and/or 10 inches of snow is a huge problem,' Bass said.

"Currently, the city's emergency warming center only opens when temperatures drop to 15 degrees or below, or when snowfall exceeds 10 inches.

"Henry Myer, director of Preble Street's Elena's Way Shelter, acknowledged the challenges the unhoused face, emphasizing that funding is a major barrier to operating shelters and warming centers around the clock.

:"However, Myer pointed to another issue—the location of shelters. The HSC operates 24/7, but it is five miles from many key city resources and can be difficult for individuals to reach if they miss public transportation." [Exactly!!! And do they have bus money? Not to mention there's only one bus that runs out that way!!!]
