u.s .,: Trump and Law Enforcement

u.s .,: We're going to be doing things militarily, according to CTV. Until we can have a wall and proper security, we're going to be guarding our border with the military, Trump said, calling the move a big step. Trump told reporters he's been discussing the idea with Defence Secretary Jim Mattis. It wasn't immediately clear exactly how the proposal would work or what kind of troops Trump wanted to deploy. Federal law prohibits the use of active-duty service members for law enforcement inside the U.S., unless specifically authorized by Congress. But the White House later said Trump wanted to mobilize the National Guard. (www.immigrantscanada.com). As reported in the news.
