This is kidnapping.
Texas Republicans have locked Democratic Rep. Nicole Collier inside the state house chamber and refuse to allow her to leave.
They are requiring Democrats to sign “permission slips” and have a police escort in order to leave the chamber, and she refuses to sign it.

Troops and federal secret police are not being deployed in Democratic and majority Black cities for law enforcement. That is dishonest framing by media. They're deployed for intimidation as a fascist provocation by Trump and Miller. It's about consolidation of power and control.
As President Donald Trump pushes the bounds of military activity on domestic soil, a debate has emerged over a nearly 150-year old law that regulates when federal troops can intervene in state issues.
