- aredox 1y agoFlashback: For years, the Insurrection Act has loomed large in the minds of Trump and his conservative allies. - In the summer of 2020, as Trump privately fumed over nationwide Black Lives Matter protests, White House aides drafted a proclamation to send thousands of active-duty U.S. troops into the streets. - Trump ultimately was talked down by Joint Chiefs Chairman Gen. Mark Milley and Defense Secretary Mark Esper, but he has publicly expressed regret over not acting more forcefully. - Top Trump allies, including architects of the far-right roadmap "Project 2025," have at various points called for using the Insurrection Act to secure the border, preempt Inauguration Day protests, and even subvert the 2020 election. https://www.axios.com/2025/06/10/los-angeles-protests-trump-insurrection-act https://www.axios.com/2025/06/10/los-angeles-protests-trump-...
