Did President Trump Sign the Insurrection Act?
Natalie’s Commentary: It would seem if President Trump did sign the Insurrection Act this would not be in haste. There is plenty of criminal evidence to support the United States and the American people who would be in the worst danger run by a shadow government for the last four years by the former Obama and Biden administration I call a criminal enterprise. IF the projected elect Biden would be inaugurated on January 20, 2021 it is perfectly clear Biden has sold our national security to the Chinese Communist Party for $1.5 Billion and they would completely takeover the United States losing its sovereignty, Constitution, freedom of speech, the right to bear arms and a whole other policies that would cause hysteria, mayhem and an economic depression in the United States with no means of recovering. Biden and Harris have said they will allow the thousands upon thousands waiting at the Mexican border chanting Biden, Biden, Biden to come in from all parts of the world. These would be illegal criminal immigrants who would add to the crime already reaching its breaking point in so many cities in the United States. ~ Natalie
- The Insurrection Act is a federal law that empowers the president to deploy the military and federalize National Guard troops to suppress certain situations including civil disorder, insurrection or rebellion.
- Martial law, by contrast, is a concept that doesn’t have a legal definition in the U.S. At its most extreme, it reflects the suspension of civil authority and military control of civilian functions such as the courts.
Insurrection Act was signed last night by Pres Trump according to multiple sources. Reliable source is Michael Jaco, a former Navy Seal, who announced it just now on his YouTube channel. Vatican, Italy, Germany, Pakistan all linked to foreign interference: https://t.co/WEorGuIz1k

“I’m hearing the INSURRECTION ACT has been signed… MILITARY IS THE ONLY WAY,” one unverified account tweeted on Sunday evening. At the time of writing, the post has been liked and shared more than 15,000 times.
Another user claimed that the Insurrection Act had been signed, “according to multiple sources”. The account then cited a former Navy Seal with a YouTube channel as their “reliable source” on the matter.
“The insurrection act was signed last night,” another account tweeted. “Fence installed around the [White House], no-fly zone enabled, and 7,000 soldiers in DC.”
The Facts
Before the president could use any of the powers provided to him under the Insurrection Act, he would first have to issue a formal proclamation ordering insurgents to disperse.
According to a Congressional Research Service research paper from 2006, the president must command insurgents to disperse within a set time frame. If that order is not complied with, the president then has the power to deploy troops to resolve the issue through an executive order.
The act was last invoked during the Rodney King riots in Los Angeles in 1992, following a request from the former California Governor Pete Wilson. George H.W. Bush issued a proclamation on May 1, 1992, commanding all rioters to disperse, “retire peaceably,” and cease all acts of violence and disorder.
Newsweek has contacted the White House for comment.
