Oregon governor tells Trump she'll REFUSE to send National Guard troops to the Mexican border if he calls them up – and she's allowed to say no

    'If @realDonaldTrump asks me to deploy Oregon Guard troops to the Mexico border, I'll say no,' says Oregon's Democratic governor Kate Brown
    Presidents can call up National Guard units using two different legal authorities, both enacted by Congress in 1956
    Trump used the weaker of the two on Wednesday, putting the burden on governors to order Guard to duty 'for operational Homeland Defense activities'
    That means Oregon's governor and others can ignore the president's order entirely – or refuse it publicly

Hard to believe that state once fought hard to kick out the Rajneesh people.
I disagree.  Circle gets the square.

I seriously doubt that she can block a call up directive.

Ok then...deploy the 3rd Battalion, 116th Armor Regiment and the 41st Infantry Brigade Combat Team to either Iraq or Afghanistan instead of another NG unit scheduled to go and put the unit that was on orders for the ME on border duty.
The libs/dems of today are the Quislings of former years. The cowards who would vote a fraud into office in exchange for handouts from the devil.

As far as I know the NG is federalized. No she cannot.
The Republic is lost.

Then send in the troops -- to arrest HER for treason.
