WASHINGTON (ABC7) — There will be around 6,200 military personnel in D.C. by the end of the weekend, a massive response to the U.S. Capitol riot from earlier this week.

The Virginia National Guard currently has 1,000 personnel in D.C. as of Saturday. The Guard plans on adding another 1,000 by Sunday night, joining National Guard Soldiers and Airmen from states around the District.

"The VNG plans to provide about 2,000 personnel total to join a force of National Guard Soldiers and Airmen from neighboring states expected to reach 6,200 by the end of the weekend," according to a statement.

Then how about keep them on a Twitter or Facebook because that distracts and occupies them?

I suspect one of two things

A third possibility. Do we know for sure WHO is really sending in the military personnel? About the only thing we can be sure of is that the LSM spins EVERYTHING, and are especially fond of lying outright.

Ambush is dangerous for anyone, even cops or military.

Because in typical leftist fashion they are going to repeat the successful events of Jan 6.
Expect ANTFA / BLM infiltrators to try something outrageous that they can blame on MAGA (maybe I should have picked one day in the life expectancy of the hiden-kamelato change over pool).
This way they can call for martial law, firearms confiscation and mass arrests. Personally, I think local statehouse gatherings are a better idea - let the china dolls see just WHAT they are up against. Folks that can't / won't travel to DC outnumber those that can. MAGA crowds in every state would be mind blowing.

They’re working hard on giving a fascist feel to the inauguration.

They should round up as many Boy Scouts in brown shirts as they can to assemble as a group for the inauguration circus.

None of his predictions came true? On Jun 4th he stated:

EAM LOYALISTS:
RED1: POTUS twitter removal
RED2: Central communications blackout [continental US]
RED3: CLAS movement PELOSI or PENCE
RED4: Movement of MIL assets [10th Mountain_1st Marine_CPSD_Marine_QVIR] to central locations under guise of citizen riot control.

Red1 happened 2 days ago. Now Red4 is about to happen.

Here are 15 more predictions that came true. Some are very specific:

This is what they do. They steal the election and now they will accuse us of stealing. They use violence all summer and now accuse us of violence. They do something and want to change the rules so it can’t be done to them.

You people ever think about a 3 second search when you have a question?

"The Governor of Maryland."

What is his justification? Is it to keep the capital police from murdering more Americans.

I think that any, and I do mean *ANY* actions besides utterly passive protest will be met with steel and lead on inauguration day.

happens every inauguration. I sat in a school house with my TA-50 in DC for 2 days waiting for Jimmy Carter to be sworn in as riot control as were the 1st Airborne MP's.

You are still thinking laws apply.

Plus the DC mayor has no authority.

“Under federal law the Mayor of the District of Columbia does not have authority over the Guard, and we must receive approval from the Secretary of Defense before we’re able to send the Maryland National Guard across the border into the federal city into the District of Columbia.”

“For state missions, the governor, through the state Adjutant General, commands Guard forces,” they write online. “The governor can call the National Guard into action during local or statewide emergencies, such as storms, fires, earthquakes or civil disturbances. In addition, the President of the United States can activate the National Guard for participation in federal missions.”
