LA Mayor Bass statement on LA ICE roundup of Illegals…
I read a recent Brennan Center article on this just by chance earlier today. Their upshot was that MOST situations are going to require at least the consent of the state's governor, even if the NG troops are under federal control. The one exception to that would be the president invoking the Insurrection Act, which would really be a step into political/constitutional outer space, but not one I would put past Trump. The President’s Power to Call Out the National Guard Is Not a Blank Check November 18, 2024 ... "The Guard’s June 2020 operation in D.C. was unprecedented; § 502(f) had never before been used for a federally requested deployment in response to civil unrest. Historically, when presidents have desired to deploy the military for this purpose, they have invoked the Insurrection Act and deployed either active-duty federal troops or federalized National Guard. The District of Columbia’s unusual status within the United States’s federal system presents a second question: whether the deployment of unfederalized, out-of-state Guard troops into a nonconsenting jurisdiction would be lawful if that jurisdiction were a state. The answer to both of these questions is no. ... The word “request” in § 502(f)(2)(A) is significant. The president or the secretary of defense may ask a governor to deploy National Guard troops, but the governor is under no obligation to acquiesce. This reading is supported by 32 U.S.C. § 328, which makes clear that a governor is the party empowered to order National Guard troops to duty under either prong of § 502(f). A governor’s right to refuse was evident in the summer of 2020—the Trump administration asked a total of 15 governors to deploy their Guard personnel into Washington, but four declined to do so. ... Moreover, regardless of Congress’s intent, deployments of the National Guard in Title 32 status must in all cases respect the co-equal and territorially limited sovereignty of the states. As a constitutional matter, the deployment of unfederalized Guard personnel into a nonconsenting state is never permissible. If the president wishes to unilaterally deploy military forces into a nonconsenting state, then they must do so through the statutory mechanism that Congress has provided for this purpose since 1792: the Insurrection Act.

Donald sure can pick em'
It seems Musk was quite happy to cut other people's budgets and throw other people out of work but when it directly affects one of his own companies he is not so keen https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/c87jq0djw00o -

Looking for legal way to stay in Thailand after volunteer visa
Hi Yidie, Are you aware that the Thai law includes a long list of occupations / jobs which are reserves for Thai citizens only. Also to work legally in Thailand you must have a Thai Work Permit. Search under Thai Work Permit, I think you'll find all the details, including the fact you must be employed with a legal letter of employment by a Thai company to apply for a work permit. The letter of employment must state the type of work. If it's work which is reserved for Thai's only you have no chance of gaining a work permit. 'Simple legal work' can easily be carried out by a Thai person so you would not get a work permit. Working for free isn't accepted for a work permit. -
