Didn't Biden sign a bill at the end of his term that made it much easier to deploy US troops and intelligence units onto US soil to assist with the police? (Yes he did)

America tries to do the "good cop/bad cop" routine to itself via Biden and Trump but they're both senile shitheads so they end up doing "bad cop/bad cop."

Do you know which bill this was? It'll be useful if I come across any "the bad stuff all started with Trump" reddit-logo comments

I can't find it and I can't remember if it was a bill or an EO. I will try to find it because I too need ammo against the libs.

I wouldn't even bother. They'll just say it's a Whataboutism.
