The cease and desist ‘order’ did not come from the state or federal gov’t or a judge. The so-called order came from a private group and had no force of law. No doubt it contained a lot of legal mumbo-jumbo designed to itimidate the the National Guard Band, which it did, but the National Guard should have just ignored it.
Absolutely right. Now let’s see if anyone in SC government steps in to correct the situation.
One wonders if this is an armed force that would do anything a phone call from Team Biden ordered it to do.
Yup. Either the SC general mistook who was ordering him to stop the band as part of the chain of command. Coming out of Biden’s woke Pentagon such an order would not be a surprise. Or, he capitulated to avoid any career threatening smears that he is a right wing nationalist.
