  6. @MugsysRapSheet So, I went further with the prompt you started with...

    "In #Maine, the #NationalGuard’s arrest authority depends on whether they are serving under state or federal control — just like in other states — but Maine law provides some specific details. Here’s a clear breakdown:
    ________________________________________
    ⚖️ 1. When the Maine National Guard Is Under State Control
    (“State Active Duty” or Title 32 status)
    • Command: The Governor of Maine (as Commander-in-Chief).
    • Legal Basis:
    o Maine Constitution, Article V, Part 1, § 7
    o Maine Revised Statutes, Title 37-B (“Defense, Veterans and Emergency Management”)
    o §181-A and §182 are key sections covering the Guard’s use in state service.
    🔹 Authority to Enforce Laws and Make Arrests
    When the Guard is activated for state service, such as in a natural disaster, riot, or other emergency:
    • Title 37-B, §181-A(3) explicitly allows the Governor to assign the National Guard to support civil authorities in enforcing the law and maintaining public order.
    • Guardsmen may be temporarily endowed with law enforcement powers, including detaining or arresting individuals, if authorized by the Governor or the Adjutant General under state law.
    • In practice, the Guard acts in support of civilian police, often to enforce curfews, protect infrastructure, or manage crowds.
    📘 Example: If Maine experienced widespread civil unrest, the Governor could deploy the Guard to assist Maine State Police or local law enforcement in enforcing laws and detaining violators.

    🔴 2. When the Maine National Guard Is Federalized
    (“Title 10” status — under Presidential control)
    • Command: The President of the United States.
    • Legal Basis: Federal law under Title 10, U.S. Code.
    • Effect: The Guard becomes part of the U.S. Army or U.S. Air Force.
    Under the Posse Comitatus Act (18 U.S.C. § 1385), these federalized troops cannot perform civilian law enforcement duties — including making arrests, searching property, or seizing evidence — unless specifically authorized by Congress, such as under the Insurrection Act (10 U.S.C. §§ 251–255).
    So:
    • Federalized Maine Guardsmen → ❌ No arrest authority over civilians.
    • State-controlled Maine Guardsmen → ✅ Arrest/detention authority, when authorized by the Governor under Title 37-B."

    You were right!!!

  8. What You Need to Know if President Trump Deploys National Guard Units to Your State.

    "Unresolved Issues Pertaining to State National Guard Units:

    A State Governor has not deployed that State’s National Guard to another State without the consent of the receiving Governor. It would violate state sovereignty and be subject to litigation.

    An unresolved question is whether the President can commandeer a State’s National Guard when a Governor has actively deployed that National Guard.

    The U.S. Supreme Court has not ruled on whether the President can order one State’s National Guard units to deploy to another state and engage in civilian law enforcement pursuant to 32 U.S.C. § 502(f). This issue may be addressed by the Supreme Court in the appeal from Illinois.

  9. IF A NATIONAL GUARD soldier IS NOT FROM YOUR STATE, they have ZERO authority to arrest or detain you.

    If the NG Trooper is from YOUR state & deployed by YOUR governor, that is the ONLY situation where a National Guard soldier has any authority to arrest you.

    If they are from another state, you can tell them to F--# Off. 👈
