Thread on the forum shows the Deep State is still trying to disarm those protecting the White House as much as possible:

National Guard in Washington D.C. are told NOT to carry guns or ammunition by Defense Secretary Mark Esper as he orders all active-duty troops out of the capital

The Pentagon has told Washington D.C.'s National Guard and guardsmen from other states who have are in the nation’s capital not to use guns or ammunition.

The order came from Defense Secretary Mark Esper and made without consulting the White House, The Washington Post reported, and it's seen as a sign of de-escalation of the federal response to protests that sprung up in the wake of George Floyd's death.

Trump has pushed for a strong militarized show of force, calling himself the 'law and order president,' and earning him criticism from several retired military generals, including his former chief of staff John Kelly and former Defense Secretary Jim Mattis.

Esper needs to have been removed from his office the day before yesterday because it was inevitable that he would do something like this today, or tomorrow. NO subordinate that PUBLICLY criticizes or questions the actions or policies of the President, ANY President, should remain on the job longer than 10 minutes after the PUBLIC criticism is made. That person is no longer trustworthy...especially in these times when summary (and perfectly justifiable) executions can not be ordered.

Keep the Faith.
