The story on Fox today is that the commander of the Guard asked for his soldiers to be allowed to leave the Capitol and go home. The new Secretary of Defense, Lloyd J. Austin III, denied the request, requiring that the Guard remain in Washington.
Elements of any state's Guard can be called home by the governor - unless POTUS assumes command of the Guard in national emergencies. President Eisenhower took command of some of the southern states' Guard so that they could not be used to enforce segregation.
You say that the Guard in D.C. is there at Trump's orders but the Secretary of Defense has overruled the Guard's request to leave. The Sec Def is doubtlessly a Biden/Obama man. This does not seem to fit your scenario.

Who is making the Sec of Defense say and do stuff, though....

Thanks for the reminder about clocks!
I think the Secretary of Defense did not have the power to send the Guard home. He’s not going to be seen giving the order to go home and then having it ignored.
The NG is at the White House - they will know the Biden did not attend inauguration there (remember the drapes!).
But the Black Hats DO have to make it look like Biden gives orders etc.
Recall Nancy Pelosi asked the NG to carry machine guns and their command said (before inauguration) she should ask President Trump if he wanted the NG to arm with machine guns to shoot his supporters.
Well, when Biden ‘took over’ (hid in his bunker Jan 20) did he tell the NG to arm with machine guns?
I believe they are there because there’s an active coup attempt underway. I have read the Mexican border has had 7 times the normal rate of crossings. Really - this is soft invasion. Best to keep the Capital under NG control for now.
I dont’ know to what level they can manipulate some. Like I think more is happening at the Mexican border and that Biden woudln’t have control over it. But how might California use it’s Border Patrol to work against the white hats?
