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.

This is all posturing as though there is some actual threat.
This is to justify the Fascist policies coming our way.
Lockdowns, Universal Healthcare CARDS (there will be no actual "healthcare", Internal travel restrictions, gun confiscation, censorship, digital currency, etc...

It wasn’t towards BLM, a pipsqueak organization. It was to their Chinese and communist masters of the DNC.

Excellent post--the rich (for the most part) have become our enemy. That was _their_ decision.
We will need to form alliances with other folks who hate rich people, whether we like it or not.
That is how we get the kleptocrats _out_.

This is all a pretext for UN peacekeepers on the ground in the US, who will be Chinese.

Second policy will be to require conservatives to wear red stars right over their hearts, giving the shooters a target.

Looking more and more like what it is-—Naked Oppressions. This will not wear well with the American People. Biden is coming in with the blood of the people on his hands. First you shoot the Laws, then the patriots. If there is any demonstrations—they will blame evil Trump and take him out. Bad choices, lead to bad actions. Inching towards Civil War. My bet—April will see the start of the fighting. What sort of fools are calling the shots with the Democrats? It had become a lot more than one man or one idea.

“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. Didn't they say civilian could not have weapons in DC during the innaugration?
Are they okaying them to shoot unarmed citizens?

Shouldn’t the NG have shotguns like Biden has suggested? They need to annex Northern Italy to build that many shotguns.
