Ice “troops”?
This is an invading army. Not the us army.
Where is the us army ? They are supposed to protect the country from this.

Too populated by MAGAts and indoctrinated to always follow orders. Yeah technically they're not supposed to follow unconstitutional orders, but that ship sailed with Obama's escapades in the Middle East.

In My Lai, Hugh Thompson landed his helicopter between US troops and Vietnamese civilians, and told his men to shoot the Americans if they tried to advance. No one questioned it. The US army tried to give him a medal for heroism in conflict with the enemy, part of their general cover-up, and he told them to get fucked. Eventually, they relented, halfway admitted that what he did was right, and gave him a medal for what he actually did. A lot of people at the time thought he was a traitor but he’s a free man now with his medal, and his name is in all the books. They court-martialled the commander most responsible for the massacre, although he didn’t really get punished.
The Vietnam Veterans Against the War did some of the most hard-hitting resistance to the war.
Everyone’s an individual. The US army is comprised of every color of the rainbow all the way from total MAGAs who want to kill Arabs and Democrats and are just waiting for someone to tell them to, all the way to whole platoons of Hugh Thompsons. It is fairly likely that a lot of how this all shakes out will come down to which faction becomes the consensus faction.
Edit: Oh, also, you’re showing your hand a little bit, saying that Obama was when the ship sailed. Not that he did much of anything to stop anything, he killed plenty of people, but there was one clear specific moment at which the ship sailed, and it wasn’t Obama.

That ship sailed with McKinley, tbh.

I’m actually a little bit glad that they are dropping the pretense. ICE is sure as shit not law enforcement anymore.
The US army obeys the president (mostly), they’re not supposed to be involved in this. They are actually supposed to tell the president to get fucked if he tells them to.
The National Guard, on the other hand, obeys the applicable governor, and they are absolutely supposed to intervene for stuff like this. The system is actually designed with a good bit of sense in some respects. We might sort of be at the point where they should be involved, but definitely in the pretty near future, one of the better timelines involves the state cops and the National Guard putting up organized armed resistance to the escalations that ICE tries to do. I actually would really like to see the little squads of “I can’t show my face I snatch PhD students with asthma” tough guys in a conflict with either of those agencies. That carries that added benefit, also, that if we make it to the other side intact the people who gave ICE their orders can absolutely pay a price for having taken part in a rebellion against the United States.
There are of course other timelines…

Unless the page has been edited, the term "troops" is one that Chris appears to have introduced. It is not present on the linked page.

No, this is going to be cops and other feds using a different charge code.
Where is the us army ?
Something something Posse Comitatus means that they are actually heroes for doing nothing about a violent uprising and you are a bastard for not supporting the troops in their hour of need. I hope you'll think about your words and deeds while you get shipped off to a concentration camp.

Lovely. More goons for the American Gestapo.

20,000 troops do not appear out of thin air. So who are these people and what kind of training do they have? It sounds like he's creating some kind of gang. This could be a boiling point for people
-
Are these forces from North Korea and Russia?
-
nope. theyll be magats... the u.s. version of the schutzstaffel

Condolences to all the comrades trapped inside the borders with this madman. We're all dealing with his shit too, but at least we can feel relatively safe in our own homes (for now).

At what point do the Democrats start shutting down the government?
