Nothing that is happening now meets the definition of "imminent lawless action". Border crossings are actually less now, and the "hordes of immigrants in a caravan" rushing our border was just being used to rile the masses, a big caravan of nothing.
Certainly it does. The organizers of the caravan are even "advertising" their intentions:
Pueblo Sin Fronteras Facebook To the governments of Central America, Mexico, and the United States of America,
To the media,
To human rights organizations,
To civil society, We are a group of people from different nations, religions, genders, gender expressions, and sexual orientations migrating and seeking refuge. We seek to become one collective, supporting each other shoulder to shoulder and demonstrating that by uniting we can abolish borders.

If Trump or Congress refuses to act to stop this then Impeachment should directly follow as they are violating their oath of office AND our Constitution by allowing a CLEAR invasion...

Yes, around 300 people (max) in the caravan had the intent of coming to the US.
Oh, yes! Call up the military!
Doesn't matter, Mexico has extended an assist to them, and none are coming now.

Does anyone find it creepy that some nut jobs are talking about having "Rules of Engagement" for US troops operating inside the borders of our country? Some people are sure making a mountain out of mouse **** regarding illegal immigration. Seems to me we have many more important issues that we can get our panties in a wad over.
like?........we have secured the borders of other countries for decades but to control the massive flow of illegal immigration and the drug trafficking that are the causes of so many problems in our poor communities and nation that is costing us billions of dollars is not a priority for you?
Hell! might as well come out for higher taxes to take care of all the social and economic problems of Central and South America countries since this is not a priority for you. Let's hit your pocket and then we shall see if this isn't a priority for you.
Tell that to the parents and families of the victims of crimes by illegal immigrants, drug cartels, and gangs that are not supposed to be here in the first place if that isn't a priority.
I voted yes but there is one problem ....its not legal for the US military to arrest anyone on the border. The US military can only be used in support of assisting the border patrol.
Quote:
The Posse Comitatus Act of 1878 prohibits the use of U.S. military forces to perform the tasks of civilian law enforcement such as arrest, apprehension, interrogation, and detention unless explicitly authorized by Congress.
10 U.S. Code § 332 - Use of militia and armed forces to enforce Federal authority: “Whenever the President considers that unlawful obstructions, combinations, or assemblages, or rebellion against the authority of the United States, make it impracticable to enforce the laws of the United States in any State by the ordinary course of judicial proceedings, he may call into Federal service such of the militia of any State, and use such of the armed forces, as he considers necessary to enforce those laws or to suppress the rebellion.”
Trump has every legal power under the constitution to enforce federal laws. Especially cities and states that are obstructing and rebelling against or that is in chaos and the locals can't control it.
President Eisenhower put Arkansas National Guard under federal control and sent 1,000 U.S. Army paratroopers from the 101st Airborne Division to assist them in restoring order in Little Rock when the Governor and the local police refused to obey federal law and a federal order.
President Lincoln pretty much did the same thing at a higher scale.

The organizers of this caravan have publicly stated their goal is to abolish our borders.
The military would not be making arrests, they would be taking prisoners.
