Federal officers are entitled to protect federal properties. However, Trump is sending federal troops to a city or two at a time not to protect federal property but to instill fear, promote chaos & ratchet up civil unrest & disorder. This is a symbolic (and despotic) gesture.
Remember, there are not enough federal agents to be deployed nation wide. Not by a long shot. State Attorneys General should flood the courts, seeking restraining orders and injunctions against the federal agencies who are over-stepping their bounds by engaging in what are
exclusively state law enforcement efforts. We can’t rely on the federal government - with the current lawless attorney general - to obey the law, respect the sovereignty of the states or honor the 10th Amendment’s command that the rights of the federal government are few and
enumerated and all other rights belong to the states and the people. The courts understand this and the states should get the judiciary involved in every jurisdiction where there is federal overreach.
