Which states voluntarily (malevolently) sent NG troops? I guess sorry for their luck...
Lay down with dogs, and surprised they got fleas? Those would be dumb states.
Pentagon approved 21,000 troops for DC. Send them the bill. I guess they will have to divert the tranny show budget to pay for this.
Anyone expecting any different bill paying from this congress makes a bag of hammers look like Einstein.
Every 4 years states send detachments to DC for the inauguration. They usually stay for about 30 days, then go home. That's normal, and every state has sent NG troops to DC for Jan 20th at some point. This time, though, they called in a much larger contingency and kept some, not all, much longer than 30 days.
