Washington D.C. is being locked down as a staggering number of military troops and law enforcement personnel are stationed throughout the city in the week leading up to the next Presidential Inauguration on Wednesday, January 20th. At last count, the number of military troops had ballooned up to 26,000, which is quite an impressive show of force. And the number of troops in the city might climb even higher by the time the next President takes the oath of office.
The media seems to believe the Mayor of D.C. or Democrats in the government are the ones flooding the streets of Washington with what amounts to well over 2 brigades of troops, many of whom are armed and able to use lethal force. They’re wrong. Washington Mayor Muriel Bowser publicly released a letter on January 5 when the number of troops and federal units deployed to the nation’s capital was much smaller than it is now.
It’s me. It’s been me all along. I am your puppet master!
Who’s Really Putting All the Troops on the Streets Of D.C.?>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
Shades of the Intrepid.
President Donald Trump is doing it?
There will be a large round-up of the felonious traitors?
Well, many novels will be written, no doubt.
Why can’t journalists get to the point in the first paragraph? Not even the 2nd paragraph.
It’s all for optics. Democrats want to give the impression that “white nationals” are ready to descend on DC.
That many troops are needed so Biden can show a crowd at his inauguration.
The question is, will all 27,000 be in parked cars beeping their horns.
One should also be asking why all these troops are to be in DC, resulting in possible man shortages elsewhere in the country.
Isn’t the use of military troops for this purpose a violation of The Posse Comitatus Act?
Gotta love the click bait. Who is ordering up the troops? Not the mayor because she doesn’t have authority. Not Biden because he is not in power. OK. It was Trump. We shall soon learn why.
The ruling class protects itself to a ridiculous degree, while advocating to defund police and disarm us deplorable Americans.
What Democrats? These troops are under Federal Executive control, are they not?
I hope the President closes the Trump Hotel for the Day and gives all his employees the day off. DC will be a ghost town. Hopefully the guard is getting double time.
This is all on Joe Biden. He wanted the largest crowd ever for his inauguration. The fact that he has had to hire National Guard troops is just a minor technicality.
“Isn’t the use of military troops for this purpose a violation of The Posse Comitatus Act?”
It’s going to take us a while to come to the realization that all rules have been thrown out the window. Violating Acts isn’t even a thing any more.
It's all part of the effort to destroy Trump and make the Rats look like victims.
We know. We didn't say anything because we thought you didn't know....
“This is all on Joe Biden.”
He isn’t president; he doesn’t have the power.
The very idea that Democrats have had to bring in tens of thousands of troops to enforce their stolen election just goes to show the complete illegitimacy of it all.
You wish.
I deployed them because I needed someone to hold a parking spot for me.
