Episode notes
Federal Vehicle Looting Crosses A Dangerous Line
- Rioters in Minneapolis ransacked DHS/ICE vehicles, stole weapons, and exposed agent information online.
- Hosts argue that stealing federal weapons elevates the incident into a national-security and insurrection-level threat.
Respond With Credible Federal Force
- Invoke credible federal force when local officials either enable or cannot stop coordinated attacks on federal property.
- Use the Insurrection Act or federal pressure to deter further raids and protect agents and public safety.
Save The Insurrection Act As A Strategic Card
- Conservatives debate whether to invoke the Insurrection Act or apply pressure via federal agencies to compel local cooperation.
- Keeping the Insurrection Act as a reserve card can be politically expedient while applying other federal levers first.
