State National Guard units from left wing states are in place in America’s Capitol. Curious?

It's called the National Guard for a reason. They are the feds. They have nothing at all really to do with the state they happen to be in. They're just distributed throughout the country so they can be ready to help with national disasters and the like.

Some states also have state militias, but those tend to be more comical than tactical.

If the National Guard troops in Blue states belonged to the states then why didn't the Blue states prevent their National Guard units from going to help in the Iraq War?

I think they are from right wing states, as well. I saw that Nebraska was sending 200. They want the people in Nebraska to think that there is a risk posed by Trump supporters, making this necessary, IMO.
