The Pentagon has ordered about 1,500 active duty soldiers to be ready in case of a possible deployment to Minnesota, where federal authorities have been conducting a massive immigration enforcement operation, two defense officials said Sunday.

The officials, who spoke on condition of anonymity to discuss sensitive military plans, said two infantry battalions of the Army’s 11th Airborne Division have been given prepare-to-deploy orders. The unit is based in Alaska and specializes in operating in arctic conditions.

One defense official said the troops are standing by to deploy to Minnesota should President Donald Trump invoke the Insurrection Act, a rarely used 19th century law that would allow him to employ active duty troops as law enforcement.

President Trump threatened to use the Insurrection Act last week, stating on social media that he would do so “if the corrupt politicians of Minnesota don’t obey the law and stop the professional agitators and insurrectionists from attacking the Patriots of I.C.E., who are only trying to do their job.” Although he later said there isn’t a reason to use the law right now, he confirmed it’s still on the table.

Tensions have been running high in Minnesota ever since the President deployed ICE officers to crack down on Somali migrants guilty of fraud within the state. One protestor lost her life in a confrontation with law enforcement, fueling even more anti-ICE sentiment. Most recently, on Sunday, protestors stormed a church in St. Paul, accusing the church’s pastor of being an ICE officer.

As Americans continue to rally against ICE, let’s pray for the protection of every federal law enforcement officer, especially those currently working to make Minnesota safe again!

Lord we ask for your mighty hand in resolving this problem by uprooting the people and organizations responsible for creating these protests and bringing them to justice. We give you thanks Lord for rising up youth who are bold and seek truth like Youtubers: Nick Shirley and Nate Friedman. May this generation and those in our blessed administration bear the fruit needed to bring this to justice. Scripture Matthew 6:9-10 CJB 9 You, therefore, pray like this:
‘Our Father in heaven!
May your Name be kept holy.
10
May your Kingdom come,
your will be done on earth as in heaven.

in JESUS name i pray for America and for those that are confused awaken to the lies of Satan and liberal Universities that spread the “hate America” movement!
May your faithful children show what true love is to these lost people for they truly have believed the lies they’ve been told.
God bless all the Federal Ice men & women and keep them safe from the evil we’ve been hearing from them and the horrific physical things they have been doing.

In the Bible, God had Israel take care of foreigners. I heard that ICE arrested a 5 year old in Minnesota even though he is here legally under asylum. Is that true?

    The boy was born in the USA so he is a citizen. Shame on ICE.

Lord Jesus, please give President Trump wise counsel from his staff regarding using the Insurrection Act in this fiasco in Minnesota. I hope that if he does indeed send troops there, that it will send a STRONG message to the bad actors who are impeding ICE from doing their job. May Your will be done, on Earth as it is in Heaven. Thank You Jesus.

Heavenly ABBA we seek your guidance and protection over all our Military and ICE and Police Psalm 35: Lord, fight those fighting me; declare war on them for their attacks on me. 2 Put on your armor, take your shield and protect me by standing in front. 3 Lift your spear in my defense, for my pursuers are getting very close. Let me hear you say that you will save me from them. 4 Dishonor those who are trying to kill me. Turn them back and confuse them. 5 Blow them away like chaff in the wind—wind sent by the Angel of the Lord. 6 Make their path dark and slippery before them, with the Angel of the Lord pursuing them. 7 For though I did them no wrong, yet they laid a trap for me and dug a pitfall in my path. 8 Let them be overtaken by sudden ruin, caught in their own net and destroyed
