I don't understand. Was the coast guard deployed? When national guard is nationalized (as is the case here when the state is bypassed), they become part of the army or air force. If Newsom had deployed them instead of Trump, then your statement would be accurate.

The national guard was deployed yesterday. Today, the Marines.

  Where are you seeing the marines where deployed? I am reading they were put on alert status, which is not the same. I would imagine this is being done as a signal to the state of California not to incite insurrection or the Insurrection Act could be invoked. I’m not making a judgment about the morality or correctness of the current federalization of the national guard, but we need to make sure we are not spreading misinformation at such a time and sticking to facts. Edit: I did just find this, so it seems they are being integrated somehow. So then yes, not clear how this would be legal: https://www.northcom.mil/Newsroom/Press-Releases/Article/4210889/usnorthcom-statement-on-additional-military-personnel-in-the-los-angeles-area/ https://www.northcom.mil/Newsroom/Press-Releases/Article/421...

    Administration officials are saying deployment is in progress: https://www.latimes.com/california/live/los-angeles-protests-immigration-raid-updates#p=700-active-duty-u-s-marines-from-camp-pendleton-will-be-deployed-to-l-a-source-says https://www.latimes.com/california/live/los-angeles-protests... California isn’t “inciting” anything - this is a few people in a couple of parts of the city and so far it seems like a protest with some violence on the order of a bad Raiders game, nothing remotely like the 1992 riots much less an actual insurrection.

      Pretty mild compared to the rioters that invaded the Capitol in 2021, calling for Pence's head. Of course, the current president pardoned all of them.

  Marines are "activated" as in prepared for deployment but so far the story is Trump deploying CA Guard without gubernatorial approval, against which Newsom filed a lawsuit just today. Still relevant to today's news
