YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

Experts discuss the over 150-year-old law known as 'Posse Comitatus' which prevents federal military and army troops from being used for law enforcement on US soil, as well as state and federal control of the National Guard. This includes marines, space force, army, air force and the navy. The law was enacted soon after the Civil War in 1878.
