Lars Larson: Kotek fails Insurrection Act quiz

By Lars Larson
NW and national radio host,

Governor Kotek just sent a secret message to her anarchist friends who plan LA style riots this coming weekend in Portland:

Anything goes, black block brownshirts. I won’t send in the cavalry.

Kotek’s allies at the Daily Dead Fishwrapper “OregonLive” ran this headline last night: “Trump has no right to deploy Oregon National Guard against protesters in Portland, insists Kotek”.

Reporters don’t bother to fact check “Tent City” Tina too much despite the fact no one ever accuses Kotek of being the sharpest tool in the shed.

Kotek’s wrong, which seems clear this morning with 2-thousand National Guard and 700 U.S. Marines patrolling the streets of Los Angeles .

So, where exactly does President Trump get this authority Kotek claims he lacks?

The Insurrection Act and it fits LA or Portland, perfectly: QUOTE: “Whenever the President considers that unlawful obstructions, or assemblages…make it impracticable to enforce the laws of the United States in any State…” “The President, by using the militia or the armed forces (or both)…shall take such measures as he considers necessary to suppress, in a State, any domestic violence…”

Governor Kotek claims Donald Trump needs HER permission to call up the National Guard. Federal law puts that lie to rest.
