What Is The Insurrection Act? Here’s What Happens If Trump Invokes Law

President Donald Trump's administration is reportedly considering invoking the Insurrection Act, a law that provides presidents with greater authority to deploy the military within the U.S., as court rulings hinder his ability to send troops to Democratic-run cities. Two court hearings are scheduled to decide whether Trump can deploy National Guard troops to Portland and Chicago. The Trump administration has been having 'increasingly serious discussions' about invoking the Insurrection Act, according to anonymous sources cited by NBC.
