And the #Marines were held in reserve on several occasions: after #MLK won his battle against Bull Connor in the 1963 #Birmingham, #Alabama, campaign for #desegregation of downtown stores, during which firebombings of a #CivilRights headquarters & King’s brother’s hotel room had sparked riots, & during the 1963 #MarchOnWashington.

Harbourt also says the proclamation & deployment is against our "broader democratic tradition of separating the #military from #civilian affairs."

#DOJ Shumate has time again. He claims that the part of the #statute [#Title10] #Trump cited requiring him to act "through the governor" is satisfied if the #governor is merely “aware” of the order.
"Under their reading of the statute, Gov. Newsom can pocket veto the president’s orders."

Adjourned.

The Trump admin is evaluating plans for the #Pentagon to take control of a #BufferZone along a sprawling stretch of the southern border & empower #ActiveDuty US #troops to temporarily hold migrants who cross into the US illegally, acc/to 5 US ofcls….

Those discussions have been underway for weeks, & they center, in part, on a section of border in #NewMexico….
