Weeks after the Capitol riot, the National Guard still hasn’t left their post in Washington DC.
Nearly 25 000 National Guard members were called upon following the unrest on January 6th.
The place looks like a war zone.
Around the Capitol, you can see officers and guardsmen standing outside of a fence with shields and tactical gear. There are military vehicles blocking entrances to certain streets on Capitol Hill.
Let’s not forget that members of the National Guard were made to vacate the U.S. Capitol and sent to rest in a nearby parking garage, while providing security around U.S. President Joe Biden’s inauguration.
And now a video shows more busloads of National Guard as they arrived in DC this morning.
Video below:
As Raheem Kassam tweeted:
It’s below 28 degrees F (feels like -6C) on Capitol Hill tonight and Democrats have National Guard members standing outside around the Capitol in order to underwrite their phony “insurrection” narrative.
The upcoming second Senate impeachment trial of former President Donald Trump is a “major” security concern for Washington, D.C., and the U.S. Capitol, according to a Jan. 25 Instagram post that states the National Guard will remain in the city out of an abundance of caution.
Given the huge numbers of national guard members that are still present at DC, why did they called for more national guard members?

Call it force rotation (typical of NG) and nothing more.
While they stop The Wall.
Fences for me and not for the.
Nothing says legitimacy like razor wire and troops........./s
This was my analysis about two weeks ago:

I think some of the legislation now being drafted in the House is why the troops will remain in DC for the foreseeable future. Notice no one on the MSM is asking why 25,000 troops are still in DC.
When government fears the people, there is liberty. When the people fear the government, there is tyranny.
Is there any declassified threat assessment that shows that the militarization of the DC Capitol Region is justified? I suppose as long as I exist as a Trump voter, I am apparently a threat, but besides that...?
The wicked flee when no one pursues.
Will they shoot their fellow AMERICANS?
The wall prevents their shock troops from coming.
Where are the ones rotating OUT?.................
Well, the leftists believe that kind of action is only allowed for them. They don't want people seeing Trump supporters rallying in front of the Senate while the "trial" is going on - not that the Dem-controlled media would even cover that.
Also, what will/would the SC say about this if the Senate convicts Trump without Roberts there to preside?
Think they are expecting something specific they had warning about, maybe from an informer? Or just paranoia?
We are at an odd mix of that. The government fears us, but they are putting up fencing and installing troops, to make us fear them.
The same National Guard that turned their back on Biden’s motorcade? They’re the ones “protecting” the swamp? I’m not so sure...
Who is REALLY responsible for NG presence in DC after inauguration???
Can ANYONE confirm WHO’s call it is that they be there???
They come out at night usually.
I have seen a few videos mistaking the leaving of troops for other things. NG deployments for this type of situation are not long as they are not combat deployments.
