Per President Trump’s order due to the Arctic Cold. I don’t want to see people hurt, or injured, in any way,” Trump posted on Truth Social. “It is dangerous conditions for the tens of thousands of Law Enforcement, First Responders, Police K9s and even horses, and hundreds of thousands of supporters that will be outside for many hours on the 20th (In any event, if you decide to come, dress warmly!).

Only because they are liberal protesters.

For conservative protesters, all methods, up to and including deadly force, are permitted, encouraged, and applied with relish.

My take: they were ordered to do this by some demented democrat who hopes there is a violent act at the inauguration of Trump.

If there is violence at the inauguration and there is no law enforcement aid, we could see an extreme conflict between left and right across the nation....

Posse Comitatus
Doesn’t really apply to WA DC.
so they can load it up with as many soldiers as they want.
Soldiers aren’t cops( though some are), most soldiers are trained to kill.

Local police refusing to help comes after the Metropolitan Police Department Chief Pamela Smith announced last week that “nearly 4,000 officers from across the United States who were generous enough to raise their hands and commit their time to assist the Metropolitan Police Department” during inaugural events.


Doesn’t look like there is any real problem.......

Protesting the inauguration of the legally elected president in order to “save democracy”

Yes, there is a gene which causes people to suffer embarassment for being stupid. Liberals do not have that gene. They also lack self awareness of lacking that gene.

hmmm, what lawsuit was this — a tacit acknowledgement of J6 instigation?

DC has home rule, that can be modified or revoked by Congress. That said, I wouldn’t expect anything on those lines would get past the senate
