To be clear, he essentially claimed that the US has the capability to forcibly do that- which isn't so much an assertion that the US has any right to do a thing, it is that laws and rights are meaningless in his view. He's framing a potential invasion or coup not supported by law or rights as if it's legitimized by either, while fundamentally subverting the notion that anyone but the powerful have rights the US is bound to respect.

I'm old enough to remember when the term 'homeland security' was too fashy-sounding to be taken seriously. We were fine without ICE, and weirdly enough, creating it hasn't solved anything- if anything, the lies they tell to justify doing it more and harder have gotten more and more absurd.
Anybody even the littlest bit surprised that he would say this sort of thing hasn't been paying attention. Not a stunner at all.
