The Pentagon has deployed 750 specially trained members of the US military — including bomb squads and trauma medics — to Washington, DC, amid security concerns over Wednesday’s inauguration of President-elect Joe Biden.
The troops also include active-duty personnel trained in “extraction and decontamination operations” following attacks with chemical, biological, nuclear, radiological and explosive weapons, the Department of Defense said Monday.

To deploy US Military on US soil is prohibited unless pursuant to invoking the Insurrection Act.
The President must have invoked the Insurrection Act if the Pentagon has authorized the deployment of active US military in DC.

Isn’t this a violation of The Posse Comitatus Act?

Either way the Rats will declare victory here. If there's trouble they'll cry “Trumps fault!” If there's no trouble they'll cry “we thwarted Trump's scheme!”
Wondering if it’s wise to send all this personnel to one single location.

Nixon had 5,000 sent from Ft Bragg back in 69 for the half million antiwar protesters march on the Pentagon. I watched a daylong convoy entering Ft Meyer from my window in BUPERS. Nixon also had a double ring of city buses enclosing the perimeter of the White House. And he had the guts to talk with some protesters during the night at the Lincoln Memorial - not hide in the basement.

Biden the authoritarian will get the "look" his/dems' platform projects; a tyrannical State power with a Praetorian/dictatorship landscape.
Trump is just painting a picture and trolling as much as possible.
Who are the fascist now?

Standard operating procedure for any large event, about half of the folks you think are Secret Service Agents are actually Army EOD, MP K-9 and commo guys. I spent 26 years doing it and it is 100% a support role, no weapon’s no arrest authority just simply support.

Babylon Bee in a rare truthful headline says, “Most Popular President In History To Be Inaugurated In Secret Behind Giant Wall Guarded By Thousands Of Soldiers”.

I guess having 30,000 NG troops surround you and hold you hostage is one way to up the attendance at Slow Joe’s inauguration .... I wonder if it will increase the enthusiasm or will they pipe it in for the Marxist State Media?

Great series. Stopped watching after the lead actor was no more. Agree, it went completely off the rails after they killed Ragnar.
