It’s the second military zone the Trump administration has created at the border, following one on the New Mexico-Mexico border, where a group of migrants were arrested on Monday.

        Federal military enforcing federal immigration policies is not martial law.

        A military performing law enforcement isn’t martial law? Please enlighten me as to how that is lol

            Have the military replaced the government now?

            That would be a military junta, not martial law.

            Martial law is when soldiers, not peace officers, are tasked with upholding law and order.

            It doesn’t matter if it’s for a good reason or not, it’s still martial law.
