The very first statute authorizing domestic use of the military during domestic emergencies, enacted in 1792 by a Congress full of the same folks who wrote and ratified the Constitution, expressly provided for judicial review in certain circumstances *before* the President could even send troops.

"Secretary Rollins Announces Reinvigorated Farm to School Grants Supporting American Farmers and Children" to the tune of *up to* $18M. Groovy. $18M. Never mind that Trump's USDA cut the LFSCAP's $660M for the 2025 cycle and cancelled the LFPA's $470M outright. It's a wash, right? š

Trump threatening members of Congress not to sign the Epstein files discharge petition saying it would be a āhostile actā against him is definitely something an innocent person would do. And scheduling a military flyover in the middle of the survivor press conference is also totally normal behavior.
