The current working assumption appears to be that our Shroedinger's Cat system is still alive. But what if we all suspect it's not, and the real problem is we just can't bring ourselves to open the box?

The Posse Comitatus Act is a United States federal law (18 U.S.C. § 1385, original at 20 Stat. 152) signed on June 18, 1878 by President Rutherford B. Hayes. The purpose of the act – in concert with the Insurrection Act of 1807 – is to limit the powers of the federal government in using federal military personnel to enforce domestic policies within the United States. It was passed as an amendment to an army appropriation bill following the end of Reconstruction, and was subsequently updated in 1956 and 1981.
The Act only specifically applies to the United States Army and, as amended in 1956, the United States Air Force. While the Act does not explicitly mention the United States Navy and the United States Marine Corps, due to them being naval services, the Department of the Navy has prescribed regulations that are generally construed to give the Act force with respect to those services as well. The Act does not apply to the Army and Air National Guard under state authority from acting in a law enforcement capacity within its home state or in an adjacent state if invited by that state's governor. The United States Coast Guard, which operates under the Department of Homeland Security, is not covered by the Posse Comitatus Act either, primarily because although the Coast Guard is an armed service, it also has both a maritime law enforcement mission and a federal regulatory agency mission.
It's interesting to note that this act was signed into law in 1878 by President Hayes, who was a participant in another extremely contentious election, after he'd personally ordered Federal troops in to crush the The Great Railroad Strike just the year before.

They Can't
It would violate the Posse Comitatus Act of 1878.

I thought Bill got rid of that.
Nope, I looked it up, and it was his brother-from-another-mother, George W, in 2007.

Why?
I call your attention that Harold Innis (1894-1952)
was a Canadian economist at the University of Toronto, who had many a reason to distrust the USA.
Innis College is his eponymous college in the U of T.
Ironically, despite his reputed misogynism, Innis College is located near the Benson Building (the women's recreation centre, gym and swimming pool) on Huron Street. Professor Innis might not have approved.

Did not know that,
I'll remove it pronto.
No, why should you remove? It's a valid point of view.
