Ep 171 — Can Trump Put Troops In Every City Simply By Shouting EMERGENCY?

The government may be shut down, but ICE is not. We’ll compare Trump’s efforts to deploy the National Guard in LA, DC, Portland, and Chicago.

And we have breaking news in Law and Chaos’s FOIA suit against the DOJ. Plus for subscribers: Was Lindsey Halligan lawfully appointed as US Attorney for the Eastern District of Virginia? Asking for James Comey.
