11:07Now PlayingThis week, Rick's Elephant in the Room is twofold -- 1) no f*cking kings, and 2) the United States military belongs to its citizens. Look up the Posse Comitatus Act -- this is a federal law, passed by Congress following Reconstruction, signed in 1878 by President Rutherford B. Hayes, that limits the powers of the federal government in the use of federal military personnel to enforce domestic policies within the United States (i.e. you can't weaponize the US military against its citizens). Rick sheds light on the reprehensible and unprecedented display of totalitarianism by Trump this week when he ordered the National Guard and Marines to Los Angeles and then continued to Fort Bragg, where he hazed the next batch of soldiers. We are inching ever closer to the point of no return, and Trump's dream of military dictatorship is becoming more and more of a stark reality. Speak out while you still can.
