The Spectacle of a Police State: This Is Martial Law Without a Formal Declaration of War

by John and Nisha Whitehead

Thank you both for addressing this in such a way that is so understandable for those who know history and read.

From the article:

When Trump issues a call to “BRING IN THE TROOPS!!!” explaining to reporters that he wants to have them “everywhere,” we should all be alarmed.

This is martial law without a formal declaration of war.

and more from the article...

There are disturbing echoes of history in these tactics, and they come with grave legal implications. We have seen this before.

It has been 55 years since President Nixon deployed the National Guard to put down anti-war student protests, culminating in the Kent State massacre. During the civil rights era, peaceful demonstrators were met with dogs, firehoses, and police batons. In more recent memory, federal agents cracked down on Occupy Wall Street encampments and Black Lives Matter protests with militarized force.

All of it under the guise of order.

Trump’s tactics fall squarely in that lineage.

Thank you again John and Nisha...here we are once again repeating some of the same mistakes...will we ever learn?
