flag President Trump’s advisor claimed unchecked power to deploy troops domestically, sparking backlash over constitutionality.

flag White House deputy chief of staff Stephen Miller claimed President Trump has "plenary authority" under Title 10 to deploy federal troops, including the National Guard, to U.S. cities without judicial or congressional approval, sparking legal and political backlash. flag The statement, made during a CNN interview, was cut short due to technical issues, and Miller later avoided repeating the term. flag Legal experts and officials from both parties condemned the claim, stressing that no president holds absolute power and that the Posse Comitatus Act limits military involvement in domestic law enforcement. flag The controversy intensified as federal troops have been activated in multiple cities, with Democratic leaders calling the moves unconstitutional and a threat to civil liberties. flag Court hearings on the legality of deployments in Chicago and Portland are pending.
