Hey thanks, now that I know where you source your information from,  I won't waste my time reading anything you put out here or otherwise acknowledge your existence. Just other far-right-conspiricy-theory-paranoid-android-MAGAman spinning BS.  This time you can take that to the bank.  Nothing to see here, Adolf.
 
You keep breaking these promises.  Is there an new attraction you should  inform your s/o about?

Trump & US ‘Insurrection’
The question, then, is “will American troops fire on American citizens?” I think the answer is a resounding “yes.” They certainly have in the past. Just look at a handful of previous invocations of the Insurrection Act.

In 1894, President Grover Cleveland used federal troops to put down the Pullman Strike in Chicago. In 1914, Woodrow Wilson did the same in Colorado in what became known as the Colorado Coalfield War. Franklin Roosevelt did it in 1943 to put down a race riot in Detroit. And Lyndon Johnson invoked the act four times to put down riots in Detroit, Washington, Baltimore, and Chicago. In every one of those cases, U.S. troops fired on Americans. History may be repeating itself.

How would you know?  My money is on it's still common. It wasn't the military making that choice, it was local judges.  
 
Because I have been paying attention.

I knew a few people who were facing trials and enlisted just before their trials and escaped prosecution.  IIRC some judges would sometimes offer the choice of jail or enlistment.  No judge ever sentenced anyone to military service that I am aware of.  During Nam, they would take anyone breathing that volunteered to enlist.

Nowadays you have to be almost squeaky clean to successfully enlist.

An Arrest Record Could Keep You From Enlisting

Each service requires its recruits to meet rigorous moral character standards. In addition to the initial screening by the recruiter, an interview covering each applicant's background is conducted at the MEPS. For some individuals, a financial credit check and/or a computerized search for a criminal record is conducted. Some types of criminal activity are clearly disqualifying; other cases require a waiver, wherein the each service examines the circumstances surrounding the violation and makes a determination on qualification. Applicants with existing financial problems are not likely to overcome those difficulties on junior enlisted pay. Consequently, credit histories may be considered as part of the enlistment decision. Basically, the more severe the crime, the less likely a waiver will be granted.
