Yup. A governor cannot “federalize” anything as Democrat Governor Wallace (yes, leftidiots, Wallace was a democrat) found out in 1963.
And Gov. Orval Faubus of AR found out in 1957 about who has the last word on NG.
And just think of all the NG divisions that were nationalized by FDR and sent to the European Theater of Operations during WWII. Isn't the Virginia NG part of the 29th Division that landed on Omaha Beach on D-Day? "Immortalized" by Robert Mitchum in "The Longest Day," and by leftist hero, Tom Hanks in "Saving Private Ryan?"
