More than 700 Marines based out of the Marine Corps Air Ground Combat Center in California have been mobilized to respond to the protests in Los Angeles, and the troops will join the thousands of National Guard members who were activated by President Donald Trump over the weekend without the consent of California’s governor or LA’s mayor.

      The administration is citing the oft-ignored statute of: “The President can do whatever he wants, lol, lmao even.”

      There’s this clause about the Senate Pastafarian saying the President doing things is uncouth, but I think that only applies to liberals.

      Turns out the president can just do whatever they want but only if they’re not a Democrat trying to do something that helps anybody
