This is the purpose of the post; suspecting that General Errol... knew about these plans and had taken no counter-measures. Or worse, giving them the thumbs up.
I think Gitmo is going to be a lot more full in short order.
Trump will not be releasing Obama’s friends there either.
Yes, messy, but delightfully effective.

Make Gitmo Great Again!
That has a good ring.
Hopefully, the armory is opening at 12:01 and they will arm themselves.

D.C. National Guard Chief Fired Days Before Trump Inauguration: “The Timing Is Extremely Unusual”
by Tyler Durden
Jan 13, 2017 2:50 PM
“The timing is extremely unusual,” Schwartz said in an interview Friday morning, confirming a memo announcing his ouster that was obtained by The Washington Post.
During the inauguration, Schwartz would command not only the members of the D.C. guard but also an additional 5,000 unarmed troops sent in from across the country to help. He also would oversee military air support protecting the nation’s capital during the inauguration.
“My troops will be on the street,” Schwartz, who turned 65 in October, said, “I’ll see them off but I won’t be able to welcome them back to the armory.” He said that he would “never plan to leave a mission in the middle of a battle.”
Schwartz, who was appointed to head the guard by President George W. Bush in 2008, maintained the position through President Obama’s two terms. He said his orders came from the Pentagon but that he doesn’t know who made the decision.
D.C. Council Chairman Phil Mendelson (D) blasted the decision to remove Schwartz, especially on Inauguration Day.
“It doesn’t make sense to can the general in the middle of an active deployment,” Mendelson said. He added that Schwartz’s sudden departure would be a long-term loss for the District. “He’s been really very good at working with the community and my impression was that he was good for the Guard.”
Unlike in states, where the governor appoints the National Guard commander, in the District that duty falls to the president.
Schwartz said that he has not been told why he was asked to step down. “I’m a soldier,” he said, noting that he was following orders and has no regrets. “I’m a presidential appointee, therefore the president has the power to remove me.”
Is this just another part of Obama’s “smooth” transition? Or is something even more sinister at work here, since we already know that anti-Trump activists are planning “the biggest protest in US history” on the day of the inauguratio

Hadn't heard that. A link from the other thread (National Guard commanding general removed) said that cached weapons have been found.

I’ve heard it tastes like a Bowel Burger au Jus, but without the jus.*

EXCELLENT! Great bumper sticker”, OK.
“MAKE GITMO GREAT AGAIN!”
Read the linked article. It was specific that the troops will be UNARMED. So they can stand around and be gun-free zone targets. Just wonderful. /s
Be right back.
Gotta throw up...
Everything!
Some don’t give a d@mn who won, they just love disrupting events.
Some are paid to wreak chaos and confusion for social upheaval.
Some are full-blown lib-tards and they hate all who oppose them.
Some are BLM’ers that enjoy being thugs, especially to white folk.

This is called “Inciting to riot.”
If anyone is injured in said riot, or damage exceeds $500 it is a felony.
Lets see some arrests!

I think a few giant airport snowblowers would fill the bill here. Turn them into Soylent Green.
