President Trump threatened to invoke the Insurrection Act on January 15, 2026, to deploy military forces amid protests in Minneapolis against aggressive ICE immigration enforcement, following a fatal shooting by a federal agent, but no deployment occurred despite the standoff with state officials. A prior Supreme Court ruling had blocked alternative National Guard federalization attempts, prompting the threat. No invocations or major developments have emerged in the past 30 days, with trader consensus implying low near-term odds amid ongoing immigration tensions and Posse Comitatus restrictions. Bipartisan congressional bills, including the Insurrection Act of 2025, aim to curb broad presidential authority. Escalated unrest from border security operations or urban protests could shift dynamics, though historical precedents like Eisenhower's 1957 use remain rare benchmarks.
