Here’s a question: Did we ever establish who ordered the NG to DC in the first place?

[Guenevere]

We Floridians are very proud of Ron DeSantis

[IgnorerOfLiberals]

I wonder if these military geniuses know that if we were going to start a real insurrection, that we wouldn’t start it in Washington D.C.?

This is a bogus piece. What does Abbott say/do?

He’s in the title. I should skim it z as d see his name in at least the first couple of paragraphs

All I see is that the Guard is there under Joe. Desantis isn’t running for 2024 and he’s whining is all i see. That’s a problem. Anyone not working toward seeing the outcome of 75 million people’s will come to be is living in a fantasy.

This is a pain in the a waste of time

sowing division among the loyal opposition

cheap shot

the LAST thing the Left wants is Florida and Texas in lockstep

that doesn’t serve their ends at all

I would vote for him. But hope he stays here in Florida. He is doing great here. Hoping Trump is back for 2024.

[glimmerman70]

He wants to keep 7000. Is he going to make them sleep in the parking garage.

Unfortunately one has to see your point about DeSantis showing leadership and Abbott not...

However the Harris/Biden administration is young... Abbott may get his chance yet. He, DeSantis, and Kristi Noem have the strong hand. He and DeSantis have... what to call it, a potential ace in the hole as coastal states...

Kristi Noem, OTOH is Governor of a landlocked state, which might be a disadvantage to her, but one also thinks she's smart enough to play the hand she's holding.

DeSantis, Noem, and don't write Abbott off just yet... These are the top three "Opposition" governors in the country right now IMHO.

Another Republican governor that I'm familiar with is actually kind of an idiot and a loudmouth and not much more.

[I got the rope]

Abbott told the guard you come home Thursday. DeSantis on Friday. Fakenews.

[VRW Conspirator]

...keep this huge military presence in DC through the ...extended on Friday through the end of March.

A paranoid police state.

[Real Cynic No More]

Looks like Blackmon REALLY doesn’t care for Abbott.

[beancounter13]

I have long become tired of David Blackmon and his Schtick.

I read the article because I was curious to know just how did DeSantis beat Abbot.

Well, I suggest that people go back a read Abbott’s tweet.... It was sent on Thursday night.

He was long ahead of DeSantis.

Much later in the day, increasingly useless Texas Governor Gregg Abbott, who has completely lost his way related to COVID-19 since last summer, woke up and realized he had just missed yet another opportunity to provide some real, actual leadership to DeSantis, decided he’d better call his National Guard people back home, too.

Pretty accurate. I'll strongly support any challenger to Abbott when his term is up.
