It is Thursday, January 15th.

We are getting close to the evening hours, sundown in most places across the country as we record this.

And Robes, a lot of eyes, is going to be on Minneapolis because, called it...

President Trump is threatening to use the Insurrection Act.

And with that, welcome to this episode of Amy and TJ.

And I can't take credit for this.

We should have seen this coming from a mile away.

A reminder of what we're talking about here and where we are.

There is something.

There is an act, an Insurrection Act, a law.

What year was it?

Is it 180-something or 190-something?

The Insurrection Act that essentially allows the President of the United States to send in troops to essentially tamp down or beat back an insurrection.

But an insurrection has to be defined as a particular thing.

There are very specific guidelines legally about what constitutes an insurrection.

Yes, presidents have used the Insurrection Act in the past.

For some pretty extreme cases, though, Robes, not necessarily because there are some possible undocumented immigrants on attack.

So he's threatened this before in other towns, and many have said for a long time he has been looking for an excuse, like just...

Make my day kind of a thing.

And they have been warning robes, the officials in Minnesota.
