No, not wrong, but GONE from NIS. Be a man if your word. It’s coming soon. Should we have a going away party. Stand up to your word.

18 USC 1385 – “Posse Comitatus Act”
If the President had used the Army or Air Force to enforce the laws of the United States, if it was done under the Insurrection Act, that is an act of Congress and therefore legal.
253 – Interference with State and Federal law
The President, by using the militia or the armed forces, or both, or by any other means, shall take such measures as he considers necessary to suppress, in a State, any insurrection, domestic violence, unlawful combination, or conspiracy, if it—
(1) so hinders the execution of the laws of that State, and of the United States within the State, that any part or class of its people is deprived of a right, privilege, immunity, or protection named in the Constitution and secured by law, and the constituted authorities of that State are unable, fail, or refuse to protect that right, privilege, or immunity, or to give that protection; or
(2) opposes or obstructs the execution of the laws of the United States or impedes the course of justice under those laws.
In any situation covered by clause (1), the State shall be considered to have denied the equal protection of the laws secured by the Constitution.†
