... Speaker didn't have "control" - President Trump requested
thru Speaker Pelosi to have the National Guard there on 6th Jan.
for both crowd and traffic control. As they were expecting
a BIG crowd of people. ... And Pelosi rejected the request.

Revolver News and gateway Pundit have the TRUE story on
their websites. ... Take a gecko and see the truth, mates!

Please cite the statute under which the Speaker of the House can reject (aka override) the President. Bonus points if you can do it in a location where the President has SOLE control and responsibility... Thine Führer is going after blue states and everyone knows it. Can't wait to hear the cult protest when Newsom does the same to LA, TN, FL and other crime ridden RED states.

The bias and credibility on both those sites are in the toilet. Could not believe pundit beat revolver with "very low credibility".


:mf_laughboun ce2: Don't make my pee myself by stating that President Dumpster wanted the Democrat Pelosi's permission for anything.

I just posted the reality, the decision to, or not to, deploy the NG on J6 rested on the shoulders of the Felon in Chief. If you believe those two propaganda sites over the source...you might be in a cult. Originally Posted by 69in2it69

The Trumpys can’t understand facts. Just what they get from Revolver and Townhall. Actual facts are something they can’t comprehend.
4]If that were really the case, why are troops walking the national mall and Georgetown, rather than Southeast, where most of the crime occurs.[/COLOR] Or better yet, instead of taking more money from DC, which he did, he could surge money for hiring more DC police, which would be a long term solution rather than just a performative one.

I am all for making DC safer (even though per Trump in May violent crimes in DC were down 25%) in ways that will make it last rather than ways that are just for show and ineffective. Originally Posted by 1blackman1;106386639[COLOR="Red"
Those are the areas where people congregate the most. Tourist for instance go to areas where they can take pictures and take in the sights. They don't go to the shady areas of town where the hoodlums are.

What was the event that caused the need for the National Guard to be called out at this time ?


Will the National Guard go back to their bases after being called out for 30 days ? If so, what is the point of this ?

As I stated, putting Humvees on the national mall and guys with M16s standing around there in fatigues isn’t stopping any crime. It’s just performance.
The usual suspects here remain ignorant. Multiple arrests and weapons taken off the streets just on night one. And once again, despite the lies of the left, the citizens there WELCOME this crackdown on crime. News flash. Real Americans don't like crime infesting their neighborhoods. Let the left continue melting down...

That's the whole scheme of things. They aren't interested in reducing crime. They just want people to think they are. The criminals in DC are members of your government. The little street thugs in DC are killing each other off that's what Government officials really want.

383 arrested so far.

Charges include DUIs, drug offenses, assaults and destruction of property, among others. U.S. Attorney for D.C. Jeanine Pirro said all agencies seized 21 illegal firearms.

You're NOT afraid to do that - are you, mate?

Hmmmm... Of course you'd surely need to READ it first...

... But, President Trump's current Nat'nl Guard are
no doubt doing the job - keeping people safe. ...

And just for the REALLY dense...the National Guard has made no arrests. And...wait for it, the number of arrests compared to last year under Biden without all the federal agents and the cost to taxpayers:


The nearly 400 arrests last week include 137 people arrested over the weekend, U.S. Attorney General Pam Bondi said in a post on X Monday morning. And they also include 164 immigration arrests, the White House told WUSA9.


So, over 40% of the arrests were for immigration violations.


Contrasted with last year under Biden:


Over the same period last year, between Aug. 7 and 17, 2024, MPD arrested 606 people, records show. None of those are immigration arrests, because until last week, MPD was not allowed to make any.
