FYI. Short video at link.
The president of the United States is the commander-in-chief for the District of Columbia National Guard. Command is exercised through the Secretary of Defense and the commanding general, Joint Force Headquarters (JFHQ), District of Columbia National Guard. The Secretary of Defense has delegated his command authority to the Secretary of the Army for the District of Columbia Army National Guard and the Secretary of the Air Force for the District of Columbia Air National Guard. The District of Columbia National Guard is commanded by a major general with a brigadier general as his or her adjutant general. The mayor of the District of Columbia, the United States marshal for the District of Columbia, or the National Capital Service director may request the commander-in-chief to aid them in suppressing insurrection and enforcement of the law; however, there is no chain of authority from the District of Columbia to the D.C. National Guard.

So if they're there they're there because the President wants them there. That sounds promising.
Extremely promising.
What if Trump called them out and orders them to arrest Biden ten minutes before the ceremony?
Well, yes, troops are always involved in the inauguration.
I was very fortunate to be involved in the 1984 Ronald Reagan 2nd inauguration. Unfortunately, they canceled all the outdoor events due to extreme cold and winter weather, so we didn’t have anything to do (I was supposed to lead a sector of uniformed personnel to man a part of the parade route).
I’ve heard that because of Covid, Biden is having a TV inauguration only, no outdoor swearing in or big crowds.
So... Why all the troops?
Not going to happen. NOTHING IS GOING TO HAPPEN to Democrats.
#47, glad you posted it! I was looking to see if anyone had yet!
Wonder what’s up 1.13.20?
Maybe have it someplace warmer, with palm trees, in the Caribbean...
The antifa fake Braveheart guy’s Lego impersonation looks real. Great job with photoshop.
Why do you need National Guard troops for a virtual inauguration? Will they be one of the Zoom windows?
Why all the troops?
Because as of midnight last night the military is in control of the government.
This is world wide... they were going to take the US down and go global. they almost succeeded. now it’s mop up time... the pope was taken in.... turn off power, go in and get the sobs that took part in our election mess!
I heard Germany was in power down tonight..

anyone? i have a few theories floating around but this info, if someone remembers would be very helpful
so did the capitol police, twice
They are that stupid. Enough guts? Maybe stupid Trumps guts.
That’s got to hurt the hips marching like that.
I like it when the NorK chicks come by.
