WuWei: Supreme_War_Pig: WuWei: Supreme_War_Pig:Oh, the standard way: proposing a bill, voting on it, that sort of thing.
By what delegated power? What would the bill say?
Congress created the national guard as it exists today. What congress gives, they can take away. Or ammend.
Amend.
Are you sure?
Yes.
BTW, I found something interesting and germane to this conversation:
Federal law was changed in 2008 By the John Warner defense act Would said that the governors only the commander when the troops are in the state.
How is it germane?

I posted before I was finished. It has now been edited.
Does it?
Jezcoe: WuWei:50 to the border causes outrage.
I am not outraged… i am amused.
It shows what the GOP is.
Nonsense action at the behest of super donors.
Yeah… that is totally like sending fifty people across state line for a politcal stunt paid for by a super donor.
At least AOC went and did the stunt herself. Noem doesn’t even have that in her. She gets other people to do it and other people to pay for it and takes all the credit.
Too lazy to do it herself.
A shining example of today’s GOP.
Or, I should say, people’s sentiments are driven by their party identification and that identification drives them to look at only those parts of reality that conform to what they’ve already chosen to believe. Until Donald Trump, consumer sentiment never was this tightly tied to party identification as it is now. Totally amazing that consumer sentiment nationally has stayed about the same, but Dems and GOP simply switched how they felt about the economy pre-Trump and post-Trump. Now the Dem…
Does it?
Looks like it

We’ll see.

Well, I doubt Biden actually would do it, but he could.

Why wouldn’t he?
Apparently it would be fine if the money were taken by the government by force, but providing it willingly is a problem.
Why wouldn’t he?
It would give Noem ammunition.
Now she is just sending fifty people away on a useless task. If Biden stops it she can turn around and say how weak he is on border security even though they wouldn’t make a difference in the first place.

Mind you, this is my opinion. I am not in the room.
Having said that, Biden has already royally peeved off red state America. There is no sense in picking this fight. It can’t do any harm, and who knows? It might help.
My beef with this whole thing is doing it at the behest of a private citizen.

Who, it looks like, is using funds from their charitable tax shelter to pay for it.

States created the federal government, same applies.

Do you know what they will be doing at the border? Curious as to how you know it will be useless.

Fifty people are going to make the big difference.
They are going to really show the 17,000 border control agents already there how it is done.

True.
So if the same thing were being done using money taken by force there would be no problem? The problem is that funding is provided willingly? This is not a private army. It is still under the control of an elected governor and based on their decision that protecting their state is important. Too bad we don’t have a president who feels the same way about the country.
Ok. So the problem is that more aren’t being sent.
