"Ahead of inauguration, the FBI has been screening troops from the DC National Guard and a number of states for potential extremist ties.
"As is normal for military support to large security events, the Department will vet National Guardsmen who are in Washington, DC. While we have no intelligence indicating an insider threat, we are leaving no stone unturned in securing the capital," Acting Defense Secretary Chris Miller wrote in a statement on Monday. "This type of vetting often takes place by law enforcement for significant security events. However, in this case the scope of military participation is unique."
On Tuesday, 12 National Guard members were pulled off the security mission for Biden's inauguration, including two who were found to have ties to far-right militias. Addressing these unsettling developments, National Guard chief Gen. Dan Hokanson on Tuesday said, "Extremism is not tolerated in any branch of the U.S. military ... If there are reported issues our leaders will address them immediately.""
Keep in mind that Miller was appointed by Trump, and Hokanson is a career military guy who worked his way up through the ranks. There seems to be no limit to the amount of ignorance and delusion displayed by Cult 45 members. Uneducated? It has been quantified that Trump voters are less educated than those who voted against Trump. Sadly, facts like these are completely disregarded by the cult members. Cult of Ignorance.

The NRA, Turning Point USA & Patriot Guard Riders are three of many non-militia groups on the list CID / FBI are using to cross reference in vetting for potential "extremists.
They're looking at various TPUSA chapters in almost every university and high school where there is one (for example high school members who are in the future soldier program, which is Army's version of Delayed Entry Program) + college age soldiers obviously already in.
Investigators also looking for the following in pictures: MAGA / KAG apparel, Gadsden flag, Confederate Flag, NRA gear
Soldiers facebooks, twitters, instagrams, tik-toks and snapchats also being checked, units from deep red states such as Texas being thoroughly examined
If Trump ordered a massive, unprecedented military occupation of Washington, DC and did background checks on those military members to ensure they are loyal to him in order to quell protest ahead of his Inauguration, the corrupt media and the uneducated fools who support Democrats would have lost what little of their minds still remain. Despicable
