On the 14th....21k Guardsmen were authorized to be in DC. Based on commentary from different sources, I don’t think that the whole crowd arrived on 19th/20th to be in position for the inauguration.
Several states have said they are recalling their Guardsmen, but I believe once federalized...the states has no say in the matter.
I think the general plan is that the second week of Feb...the impeachment would start up and they believe the full 25k would be in place to ‘protect’ the House/Senate. It’ll be rather comical have the landscape filled with Guardsmen and avoid saying the word ‘coup’. It’s what you’d view in Paraguay.
One issue that I see brewing...there’s virtually no quarters provided to the Guardsmen and the idea of a one month deployment sleeping on the floors of the capital building probably won’t work for more than 2,000 of them. The rest? Unknown. You would think that FEMA or someone would be putting up a tent-shelter city but that would indicate long-term presence (which I think they want to avoid).
Even if they used every single military related structure around DC (even the Pentagon hallways), it’s an extremely short-term 2-star solution.
Interestingly, just did a quick crawl though SD enemedia, print and TV, no mention of the National Guard in the parking garage story.
Hmmmmm....
To paraphrased Obama:
"Those troops are now ours."
According to the psychologists it's ... envy.
Why is the schedule cancelled?
OMG...what is going on?
Davos isn’t until May I thought due to Covid concerns.
Curious as to who told Congress to go home.
If not Biden, another Dem. If Trump called them up, why is Biden or whoever keeping them until March?
Biden spokesperson will come out and say that he just heard about the poor treatment of NG “on TV” and he is outraged. Sound familiar? Worked for Obama.
I’m really proud of the governors that have the courage to bring their troops home.
Keep in mind, making them sleep in a parking garage with one bathroom and one outlet.
Will there be a bid May Day military parade this year?
Why are new National Guard troops still arriving in DC?
So the democrats can have an opportunity to humiliate them?
This dovetails with the CDC’s strange approach starting March of last year that holds COVID-positive people, even when they obviously bled out from a car accident (but were tested or assumed COVID-positive by anyone with form access), died of COVID for statistical purposes. This had never been the case with other maladies like the flu.
You see, this was likely to be one huge global ruse to take control by a narrow group of people. It also served well to lower Trump's time in office, which could have been a major (or sole) reason for it all.
It's a theory.
Ok...disinformation.
No idea what to believe at this point
I guess there’s still plenty of empty parking garage space they need to fill up with unarmed NG.
Unless, of course, the Pentagon and others are refusing to do his bidding for reasons unknown. :-)
Maybe. Maybe not.
I think they are worried about a revolt too, but not just from the right. As reality sinks in, gas prices go up, illegals flood in, girl/women’s sports ruined, males in women’s restrooms, higer taxes on everything. They will have revolt from all sides. Plus I think they are more terrified of BLM and Antifa. Troops may never go home.
That would be insubordination. Pentagon officials would be fired.
Diesel popped over $3/gal here yesterday.
The progressive plan of limiting travel via fuel costs is working.
My worry is that they are gonna cut off nat gas for home use like they’re doing in California. Heat pumps suck in cold weather.
The Daily Mail is reporting that the guardsmen have hotel rooms, but that they are taking rest breaks during their 12 hour shifts at the Capital complex (inside before, in the garages, and now back indoors)
The whole situation seems overblown and ridiculous.
