Excellent points. There is no authority here, and any military action will be litigated. The posturing also seems superfluous: in other arenas, the Admin. is following the Danube Institute model of regulatory authoritarianism that relies on rigging the rules rather than the state monopoly on violence. That is where the action is.
his MAGA TRASH are too clueless to see what is coming. they inflicted this on 70 percent of Americans- along with Putin, Bibi and Musk and all of the crypto bros
Tear gas: anyone in the world who doesn't want to breathe tear gas, those canisters are heat activated, they are burning inside which pushes out smoke and particles (the gas). Water stops burning. So, for instance, a 5 gallon plastic bucket with a few inches of water at the bottom, with the help of a pair of tongs, can deactivate them. (They are hot to the touch, don't touch bare handed, but tongs to pick them up and some water to dunk them in = no more gas).
Some people buy welding gloves.....

The SS was created because the Nazis did not trust the army or the police to do the extremist work they wanted done, so they built an extremist militia.
Ahem.
History forgotten is repeating itself.
SS (abbreviation of Schutzstaffel [German: 'Protection Squad']), “the black-uniformed elite corps and self-described “political soldiers” of the Nazi Party. Founded by Adolf Hitler in April 1925 as a small personal bodyguard, the SS grew with the success of the Nazi movement and, gathering immense police and military powers, became virtually a state within a state.
From 1929 until its dissolution in 1945, the SS was headed by Himmler, who built it up from fewer than 300 members to more than 50,000 by the time the Nazis came to power in 1933.
...the SS became an independent group responsible, via Himmler, to Hitler alone. Between 1934 and 1936 Himmler and his chief adjutant, Reinhard Heydrich, consolidated SS strength by gaining control of all of Germany’s police forces and expanding their organization’s responsibilities and activities. At the same time, special military SS units were trained and equipped along the lines of the regular army. By 1939 the SS, now numbering about 250,000 men, had become a massive and labyrinthine bureaucracy, divided mainly into two groups: the Allgemeine-SS (General SS) and the Waffen-SS (Armed SS).
The Allgemeine-SS dealt mainly with police and “racial” matters. Its most important division was the Reichssicherheitshauptamt (RSHA; Reich Security Central Office), which oversaw the Sicherheitspolizei (Sipo; Security Police), which, in turn, was divided into the Kriminalpolizei (Kripo; Criminal Police) and the dreaded Gestapo under Heinrich Müller. The RSHA also included the Sicherheitsdienst (SD; Security Service), a security department in charge of foreign and domestic intelligence and espionage.
The Waffen-SS was made up of three subgroups: the Leibstandarte, Hitler’s personal bodyguard; the Totenkopfverbände (Death’s-Head Battalions), which administered the concentration camps and a vast empire of slave labor drawn from the Jews and the populations of the occupied territories; and the Verfügungstruppen (Disposition Troops), which swelled to 39 divisions in World War II and which, serving as elite combat troops alongside the regular army, gained a reputation as fanatical fighters.
