![Article IV, Section 4 of the U.S. Constitution [1222x1341 - 1.18MB]](https://pic8.co/sh/fLiAZs.png){kind=link}
The Constitution doesn't contain any instructions on what to do when half of the population thinks what's happening is NOT and invasion and the other half does.
If we successfully go off calling a horde of spics an invasion it won't be 10 days before some communist governor declares an "invasion" of white supremacy to use their National Guard against their political opponents.
"The Constitution doesn't contain any instructions on what to do when half of the population thinks what's happening is NOT and invasion and the other half does."
Can you read? That Constitution can't be any more plain. Its up to the state government alone to decide if its being invaded, not the Feds, not the Congress, not half the population. That means the governor and the state legislature.
Can you read?
I can read, but it appears that maybe you can't. The Constitution doesn't say the states get to decide what's an invasion. It doesn't say who gets to decide, which means it falls under "all Cases, in Law and Equity, arising under this Constitution" of Article III, Section 2. In case you hadn't noticed, that means it's the jurisdiction of the Supreme Court.
Let's read it together since obviously you can not.
"No State shall, without the Consent of Congress...engage in War, unless actually invaded, or in such imminent Danger as will not admit of delay."
Okay. So the Framers decided that the sovereign states don't have to wait for Congress to act if they are in imminent danger of invasion but they have to beg permission of the Supreme Court and wait for their ruling before they are allowed to defend themselves or not. Genius!
