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.

They just responded to a request from the President...who was Trump at that time.
I’m not moving to FL for at least 4 years, depending of course on who is governor. I can’t go from Cuomo to another Marxist state.
Trump backed DeSantis over the establishment choice... (who was also a good man)... and now we’ve got the winner. DeSantis is right - it’s time for these people to come home. Nancy can protect herself from her irrational fears.
Hey! Do any of you have any idea of how many of those (D) Critters carry ‘Cooties’??? Nasty stuff ‘Cooties,’ it can kill you!
“Joe can get Chinese Troops at the drop of a hat”
You think the weenie ChiComm troops have recovered from the beating they took from the Gurkhas at Ladakh last summer?
“The Abbott”? LOL. King monk told troops to come back home.
I’m studying him. Since someone here recommended it.
“They just responded to a request from the President...who was Trump at that time.”
We don’t know that.

This is a half-cocked mission.
Another great democrat idea up in smoke.
