DeSantis Orders FL Troops In D.C. Back Home: ‘They’re Not Nancy Pelosi’s Servants’
Daily Wire ^ | Jan 22, 2021 | Amanda Prestigiacomo

Republican Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis on Friday morning announced that he has ordered back home Florida National Guard troops sent to Washington, D.C., to secure the inauguration of President Joe Biden, which took place on Wednesday.

“[Governor Ron DeSantis] says he ordered the National Guard to come home from the U.S. Capitol because ‘they’re not Nancy Pelosi’s servants’ and ‘this is a half-cocked mission at this point and I think the appropriate thing is to bring them home,'” reported Miami Herald Tallahassee Bureau Chief Mary Ellen Klas.

Republican Gov. Greg Abbott (TX) reacted quickly to the report, too, ordering on Thursday night that members of the Texas National Guard return D.C. back to Texas, The Daily Wire reported.

“I have instructed General Norris to order the return of the Texas National Guard to our state,” Abbott said on Twitter.

Earlier in the week, the Abbott ripped into the so-called “loyalty” screening of the tens of thousands of National Guards troops sent to D.C. for the inauguration.

Thanks to both governors for backing their Guard Members and telling Bidet, Pelosi and other haters of our Guard to forget it.

Probably never should have allowed them to go in the first place.

At the same time, DeSantis and Abbott are showing their authority. They can order those troops back home just as easily as they ordered them to DC.

DeSantis and Abbott have been good and they don’t let themselves (or their states) be pushed around for political reasons.

¡Jeb! can go fornicate with himself. Romney should be selling used cars in Beirut.

The NG troops have been humiliated enough for this deployment. Would be great if the FL and TX troops could spend tonight in the Trump Hotel.

The officer in charge during that photo op should have ordered an about face.
