YouTube Description
as posted by the channelThe Insurrection Act is here ILLEGALLY - Active Duty Marines in LA: What Trump Didn’t Sign. Donald Trump is a lawless president.
In this update, Hawk breaks down the deployment of active duty Marines to Los Angeles and explains why it may be in direct violation of federal law. According to Hawk, Trump has not formally invoked the Insurrection Act, which is the only legal pathway for placing U.S. military troops on American soil. Instead, his executive order references 10 USC 12406, which only applies to the National Guard—not the Marine Corps.
Hawk walks through the legal differences between National Guard federalization and active duty military deployment, pointing out that only 10 USC 254—the Insurrection Act—permits the use of troops within the U.S., and that Trump has not cited it.
This situation mirrors past actions taken during the 1992 Los Angeles riots under George H.W. Bush—but with one critical difference: Bush formally invoked the Insurrection Act. Hawk raises concerns about legality, motive, and the dangerous precedent this may set for future administrations.
The video also addresses partisan enforcement patterns, highlighting that recent ICE raids and federal responses have largely targeted blue states and cities. Hawk discusses the deeper implications of military loyalty, political retribution, and the erosion of democratic norms.
For anyone following the growing tension between law, military power, and executive authority, this is a must-watch.
