You see this crap in Third World nations. All show because we know the Deep State wants a vast number of sheeple out there to think the Capital is under imminent assault by Trump loyalists. The military is being used again as props by the left and the DS!

Guessing our tax payer money is catching the bill for this. One day ceremony that no one is going to show up for except politicians and whomever they pay. They will have about 20,000 of the 50,000 troops in civilian clothes standing around and CNN will pan around to try to make it look bigger than what it is. Notice during the rally in DC the cameras wouldn’t turn to show the 100,000’s of people.

The most popular presidential candidate in history needs 30,000 troops (and I wouldn’t be surprised if some amount of this new ‘security’ stays in place) to protect him from his own citizenry.

“You VILL have your PAPERS in ORDER!”

Are they THAT afraid of us? (They should be!)

Or are they just doing the standard Socialist Democrat ‘Instill Fear in the Populace, No Matter What’?

Washington DC is under the control of the military. When do we see a Capitol controlled by Armed Forces? Could it be when a government has been overthrown? Could it be when a nation is undergoing a coup d’état?

Well duh!

You are halfway there. Occupation not security operation. Who’s commanding the troops? Secretary of Defense Chris Miller. That’s who.

They can ask for ID but cannot require it.

If you refuse, they cannot arrest you.....

They can bluster, tell you they will arrest......but legally can’t.....

This is the irony... hundreds of thousands of people show up in Washington DC on January 6th to support Trump and they hardly had any troops there.

Now, only politicians and DC bureaucrats are expected to show up at Biden’s inauguration with no ordinary citizens attending, and they bring in 25,000 troops... more than the number of soldiers we have in Afghanistan.

And we are to believe that Biden has the support of the American voters?

President Trump is the one who activated the National Guard. It makes one wonder if he has something up his sleeve. Even the recent venerated take over of the House of Representatives was led by Antifa and BLM. Are they really expecting a massive violent backlash from conservatives? Not likely! And Antifa and BLM got what they wanted. The most important moves in a war typically come at the end, and we have not seen the end of this one yet...

Why is Trump going along with this? Is he just signing anything they put in front of him at this point?

Trust the Plan.

I wonder how many armed A-10s and AC-130s they’ll have in the sky over DC for the inauguration.

I’m not sure there’s much else he can do. All of these troops and ridiculous measures are being requested by DC authorities, and he knows that if he doesn’t do it and something happens - some incident committed by a leftist instigator, for example - his followers will be blamed no matter what and will be subject to very harsh measures, even worse than now. Honestly, no conservative or even Republican (other than those in Congress) will even attend this faux inauguration.

On the other hand, while the left believes it is creating the appearance of having to protect itself from violent conservatives, it actually has more the look of a coup cabal protecting itself from the people and the legitimate government. The optics are not good for the left.

So that’s how they’re gonna fill the spaces with “buyDUNG/fweedom hawiss fans” More troops that supporters. Sure looks different than January 2017.
