He said that to prevent this barbaric attack and to protect the country's assets, he will deploy troops with thousands of armed forces in Washington.
What is the act of 1807
This act of America gives special powers to the American President. Under the Revolt Act of 1807, the President may allow military action in American cities during protests in the country. Can deploy army in the country.
The act was signed into law by Thomas Jefferson and was last enacted in 1992 during the Rodney King riots.
