About this listen
A growing list of U.S. cities are set to see National Guard troops in their communities as President Trump explores ways to deploy the military on American soil. But legal challenges are piling up. On today’s show, Kimberly talks with Patrick Eddington, senior fellow in homeland security and civil liberties at the Cato Institute, about the changing role of the National Guard and why Trump’s use of the Guard defies precedent.
Here’s everything we talked about today:
- "The President’s List of Subversive Organizations" from the Cato Institute
- "Trump’s use of Guard may have lasting impact on cities and troops" from The Washington Post
- "Trump's use of the National Guard sets up a legal clash testing presidential power" from AP News
- "Troops and marines deeply troubled by LA deployment: ‘Morale is not great’" from The Guardian
- "What We Lose by Distorting the Mission of the National Guard" from The Atlantic
