Washington, DC is beginning to resemble a war zone, as National Guard troops numbering in the tens of thousands are armed and have been given permission to use lethal force as Joe Biden’s inauguration date looms.
A statement from the D.C. National Guard indicates “National Guardsmen were given authorization to be armed in support of the U.S. Capitol Police to protect the U.S. Capitol and individual members of Congress and their staff.”
A defense official confirmed to U.S. News & World Report that the authorization “includes permission for Guard troops to use lethal force.”
Reports indicate that 20,000 National Guard troops are on-site in preparation for anti-Biden demonstrations over the weekend.
...
The Associated Press is reporting that “a state of lockdown” has “descended on Washington that will last through the Jan. 20 inauguration.”
The FBI warned of armed protests being planned in all 50 state capitals as well as in Washington for the days leading up to Biden’s inauguration.

China has a lot riding on this.
anyone who shows up to protest is just is just playing into their hands.
Ain’t thalat America, you and me, Ain’t that America home of the free yaaaa.
Does that mean that there will be at least 20,000 rounds of ammunition there?
EEK!
But they let the anarchists through homemade bombs at the police, and called it “mostly peaceful.”
They had to be unarmed for BLM doing their burn loot and murder, remember.
Which one is it?
Read where Biden is scared he will be shot? They are unarmed now?
So WHY wasn’t this done during 6 months of riots????
The congress doesn’t care about people losing their businesses during riots and covid, but you will be shot if you demonstrate where THEY DO THEIR WORTHLESS BUSINESS.
When some of the Trump administration members asked for security protections, they were laughed off and claimed to waste government money.
Now this!
If they start shooting at Antifa/BLM they will be tried for murder or attempted murder. Patriots are fair game, of course.
(Bet they weren’t told that but will find out later...oh well...)
They have ammo. They are not allowed to have a magazine in their mag well unless certain conditions are met first.
Let’s think.
Please
It’s like a theorem. Tenth grade level
1 we know the press lies
2 we know this men rec pans for stories out of press
3 we know the headline is either stupid or deliberately provoking
4 scroll - find the quotes. Look for the NG troops are told to shoot anyone unhappy with a Biden swear-in
“ A defense official confirmed to U.S. News & World Report that the authorization “includes permission for Guard troops to use lethal force.
“Reports indicate that 20,000 National Guard troops are on-site in preparation for anti-Biden demonstrations over the weekend.“
5 no such order. Additionally the source is USNews.
Farce
7 move on.

Q: Are the NG units in DC handpicked from Trump hating-states with Trump-hating governors?
If so, then the NG present in DC are there because they are willing to do whatever Deep State wants of them.
In which case they are no longer a National Guard.
They are a Praetorian Guard.
IMO, all this is total BS...This is the democrats building a mountain out of flatland....
Meanwhile....
“anyone who shows up to protest is just is just playing into their hands.“
Maybe, but it is equally possible that the call to armed march was fabricated by the deep state for the express purpose of stopping ANY protest. If that is the case, we are currently playing into their hands.
Seems they have setup the perfect damned if you do, damned if you don’t situation.
While Uncle Joe craps his Depends in fear.
And still, if a barely organized effort were made, D.C. would be surrounded by 10,000,000 armed patriots. 25,000 New York & other NG would tear off their uniforms and run like Sadam’s army.
