You can't just send them in to random cities in support of just fighting crime.

Like that you really can't do without the invitation of a governor.

So we're heading for an uncomfortable showdown with Governor Pritzker.

We can't have Trump going in without the invitation of this governor.

I'm sorry, but we can't have it.

He does not have the constitutional permission to do it.

It very clearly is not constitutionally permissible. He cannot do it. I really hope he doesn't do it

because I don't want a world in which I'm siding with Governor Pritzker over President Trump.

But I will if he does it because he can't do it.

Thank you to Maga commentator Megan Kelly for drawing her first ever red line with Donald Trump and saying, hey, maybe the president of the United States shouldn't be mobilizing the military into democratic cities against the explicit will of the people who live there, the mayor, the governor of the state, and leaders throughout the entire state of Illinois.

And beyond the illegality of it, which we'll talk about in just one second, along with some more clips of Charlie Kirk getting owned, MAGA commentators, just being overall idiots.

I want to talk very quickly about what Megyn Kelly is getting at here because it is illegal,

but it's also just very inefficient.

You know, the lead policy advisor at Machlar Media, Micah Irfan, crunch the numbers.

We love to crunch the numbers and stick to the facts here.

And we figured out that the National Guard cost $120 million of taxpayer

dollars to mobilize in Los Angeles for roughly 58 to 59 days. When it was mobilized in

L.A., it was $120 million. We got that number from the leadership in California. But what we figured out is that that is enough money to

hire 1,800 cops in Chicago. Add 1,800 to the police force. We could train them. Even if you

want to split that in half, 900 cops who are even better trained because they get double the

funding of the 1800.

So those 900 cops get better psychological evals, better training, and all of this.
