MODERATORS
The President deploying Marines inside the U.S. without invoking the Insurrection Act, declaring an emergency, or getting local/state approval — especially just to respond to peaceful protests — is unlawful on multiple levels:
This isn’t just controversial — it’s flat-out illegal.

Has anyone actually fact checked this?
It was. I keep seeing this at work. ChatGPT especially loves to add the unnecessary icons.
But is the information wrong?
At my work I have some serious privacy and security questions about what people are pasting into chatgpt.
No, the information is correct from what I can determine. But it would have taken me a lot longer to find the relevant sections of law and precedent and sift through them on my own.
They're all mercifully short reads (at least enough to get the idea if they apply) and famous enough to be easy to find. I just went through them in a higher-level post. They're all right-ish. 3 are solid, the other 3 are technically accurate, but there's enough wiggle room to get out of it.
