Governor Greg Abbott of Texas and governors of other states ordered their National Guard troops home after Nancy Pelosi, Chuck Schumer, and the rest of Congress evicted them from the Capitol they were brought in to protect from imaginary terrorists.
That was the final straw for Abbott, who was displeased when Democrats demanded the FBI vet Guardsmen for disloyal thoughts.
He tweeted, "This is the most offensive thing I've ever heard. No one should ever question the loyalty or professionalism of the Texas National Guard. I authorized more than 1,000 to go to DC. I'll never do it again if they are disrespected like this."
Democrats turned DC into an armed encampment for the inauguration. It was a show of force aimed at quelling dissent by the civilian populace. Democrats control the military and will use it against political opponents just as they use the IRS, the FBI, and the major news networks.
Governors sent 20,000 to 30,000 National Guardsmen to DC for the inauguration. Various sources cite various numbers. To put that in perspective, Fort Stewart, the largest Army post by area east of the Mississippi, has a little under 12,000 troops.
DeSantis in Florida, Sununu in New Hampshire, and Baker in Massachusetts were among the governors recalling their Guardsmen.
Sununu told Fox, "To be treated with that kind of disrespect, I think a lot of governors are second guessing and saying, well, we’re going to pull them back.
"I don’t know who’s responsible, frankly I don’t care, I just have to protect my troops and do what’s right."
Democrat Senator Tammy Duckworth, who lost her legs in the Iraq War, tweeted, "Unreal. I can’t believe that the same brave servicemembers we’ve been asking to protect our Capitol and our Constitution these last two weeks would be unceremoniously ordered to vacate the building. I am demanding answers ASAP. They can use my office."
Donald Trump opened his DC luxury hotel to them as well.
Guardsmen aren't pansies. They help in floods, forest fires, snowstorms, and every imaginable calamity.
But making them sleep on concrete this time was totally unnecessary. Washington brought in a division of Guardsmen without providing them accommodations. That is inexcusable. They should not have been sleeping in the Capitol to begin with. This catastrophe is not just on the politicians but also on the people in the Pentagon.
General Daniel R. Hokanson, the chief of the National Guard Bureau, needs to apologize and explain why he personally let down 20,000 to 30,000 men and women. Then he should resign. The buck stops at the top.
Congressional leaders are doing CYA.
Schumer said, "I have told those who run the security at the Capitol that it can never happen again.
"I have pledged to every National Guard member it will not happen again. The minute I heard about this outrage last night we made sure it was fixed immediately. Every member of the Guard was found proper accommodations inside and as of this morning everyone was accounted for and taken care of this."
The real problem was having 5,000 troops guard the Capitol. My goodness, who were they protecting the building from? Klingons? Han Solo and a rebel army? The Rooskies?
This was Chairman Xiden's first outing as commander-in-chief. He blew it. His show of force turned into a farce.
But his wife sent them chocolate chip cookies, so that made everything fine again.

ReplyDeleteDid Hillary bake them?
What an absolutely horrible thought. And Epstein didn't kill himself!
DeleteIf she did they're laced with arsenic. She hates the military with a passion.
DeleteStrange how y'all have so much supported policing the world and suddenly are shocked when the policing is brought home on you.
ReplyDeleteSame with regime change y'all support so much. Now they brought regime change back home after mastering the craft since 1953 when the CIA overthrew a democratically elected Iranian prime minister. The goal was to preserve British Petroleum for England.
You also claim Congress has a right to regulate commerce. FDR started that regulation in 1933 when he simply copied Italy's 1926 Law of Corporations.
In 1942, Joseph Schumpeter’s Capitalism, Socialism, and Democracy described the logic by which government and big business tend to coalesce into socialism in theory, oligarchy in practice.
But by then, that logic had already imposed itself on the Western world. Italy’s 1926 Law of Corporations—fascism’s charter—inaugurated not so much the regulation of business by government as the coalescence of the twain. Over the ensuing decade, it was more or less copied throughout the West.
Fascism has been with us since. Today there is no difference between the feds and huge corporations they trade seats all the time. They coordinate their tyranny in perfect synchrony. They write 5000 page bills that no legislator ever reads.
The only thing new is that for the first time tens of millions of voters can see the oligarchy in action. Donald did that for us.
So when you don't know history you end up unknowingly supporting your enemies that is the moral of the story. Only the restoration of the 10th amendment will preserve liberty and justice for all.
So the New Deal is really fascism at its core. It was copied from Italy as surely as the 1968 gun control act was copied from Hitler.
DeletePlease don't confuse the Old Guard responsible for the actions you detailed (aka Never Trumpers) with the new conservative wing of the party....
Delete...we don't support war mongers either
DeleteThe new conservative party needs to realize that Big Business is not free market capitalism and start to attack those organizations and cause them to break up. A faster approach may be to go after their patents. Facebook and Twitter would quickly lose their power without the government protecting the patents they have on ideas and processes.
DeleteThere is a reason AT&T and their subsidiary CNN are so anti-Republican; they fear the Democrats. Break up the Big Business and the rest start to realize the game is up.
Orangehat51 - Please define your terms. Monopolies are illegal in the US. We have monopolies operating unabated with nobody applying the Sherman Anti-Trust Laws. They are practicing collaboration to apply unfair business practices against any of their competitors. When-o-when will somebody just take a peek at our anti-trust laws. They impose TREBLE DAMABES so a lot incentive to prosecute and convict. Then there's the little Rule 230 protection that the Socials are OBVIOUSLY not entitled to based on their behavior. The Socials are the modern day Robber Barons. For example, it is ILLEGAL for the three CEOs to collaborate to increase prices in certain markets where smaller regionals operate in order to put them out of business, then once out of business they are free to raise the prices again. That has been tried and I believe AA lost their case for doing something similar. The CEOs are obviously collaborating to put smaller upstart (conservative) media and internet businesses out of business. Also, they have to uphold their terms of business. As a private business they can say that they will not do business with, for example, Islamic extremism advocating for killing Jews. Then you know up front that that is forbidden. But the Socials have been capricious and acting ahead of political campaigns, which may also be a violation of campaign finance laws as "donations in kind." We don't need to invent new laws. We just need to test them and apply them in court.
DeleteSo the New Deal is really fascism at its core. It was copied from Italy as surely as the 1968 gun control act was copied from Hitler.
DeleteTell me something I didn't know. Your attempts at virtue signalling have finally fallen flat.
Didn't you know the people who thought Franklin Roosevelt ended the Depression were the ones who believed him when he said, "I will never send American boys to fight in a European War".
Just the way Hitler promised Germany no war (I have no more territorial ambitions).
So the New Deal was Fsacistic.
Well, if you had any brains you’d realize Trump spent four years trying to get us to stop policing the world. We’re at a point where military presence overseas is at a 60 year low.
DeleteExpect that to be obliterated by Biden soon.
The Suck has a time-machine, and its name is Joe Biden.
ReplyDeleteLove this article...TRUTH!
ReplyDeleteCheato Joe is showing us how ignorant he is.
ReplyDeleteElection fraud has consequences.
And a lot of Demos appear to be having buyer's remorse.
DeleteIf Trump showed up in DC with 5 million protesters and the National Guard, he'd have the support of a lot of Demos who believed Pelosi Galore and Jim Clyburn that the lying dogfaced pony soldier was a "moderate" .
THANK GOD!! GET PUT QUICKLY AND HOME FOR YOUR OWN STATE BORDERS!!! PERIOD.
ReplyDeleteTHANK GOD!! GET THE ALL OUT QUICKLY AND HOME FOR YOUR OWN STATE BORDERS!!! PERIOD.
ReplyDeleteThis is your Democratic party. I remember when Dems spit on returning soldiers.
ReplyDeleteThis is the same lying, disgusting Democratic Communist Party that loudly accused (and made sure CNN, MSNBC, and all the other leftist Fake News echoed it) Trump of creating a photo op for himself when he called in the Guard for the Antifa riots just outside the White House. There, Antifa tried to tear down federal monuments and injured scores of Secret Service agents when they tried to breach the WH fence.
DeleteThe NG presence at Biden's Inauguration was pure theatre and photo op. There were more Guardsmen than spectators.
The best part was when the National Guard did an ABOUT FACE when Biden's Entourage was causing down Pennsylvania Ave on their way to the ceremony,
Kim Reynolds (IA) is calling back the NG, too.
ReplyDeleteHeard a great comment on Joe Paggs today. Bug the f@@k outta your congress-rinos to get injunctions filed against the fraud-and-thief's exec orders. President Trump appointed enough (hopefully) conservative judges, surely one will sign the paperwork.
Considering that was the dem's playbook, turn-about's fair play, right?
Politicians excel at the the process of doing something corrupt, illegal or awful, then acting outraged, then stating "this can never happen again" and then going forward without fixing it. Election fraud and the treatment of the NG are just 2 of their latest
ReplyDeleteYou're right, the Uniparty wails of injustice and fixes nothing, except elections.
DeleteAs ANG family I am calling for the resignation of the General and every person making decisions where these troops are concerned.
ReplyDeleteThey were used as political tools, demeaned, doubted, displaced and all on taxpayer dime. This is a prop situation trying to give the public the believe troops are necessary because Patriots are scary. Also it is for optics to manipulate emotions leading to this radical abuse of power called an impeachment trial.
Chuck U is a worthless DIKC
ReplyDeleteThe people in the Biden administration are demonstrating a level of paranoia that, in my opinion, makes them unfit to govern.
ReplyDeleteParanoia is a feature of totalitarianism.
Paranoia equals razor wire on the portable fencing?! Quite an astonishing display.
DeleteProof of a COUP....
ReplyDeleteYou need the military to uphold your corruption...!!!

Get them on the ROAD RIGHT NOW, EVEN IF SULVIANS HAVE TO DRIVE THEM HOME! BEFORE AN EO IS ISSUED -GET THEM HOME RIGHT NOW NOW NOW FOR YOUR OWN BORDERS!
ReplyDeleteNo Republican governor should have sent troops in the first place.
ReplyDeleteI'm embarrassed for my state of NH.
Should you really use "pretty big" and "erection" in the same sentence?
ReplyDeleteYep! The idiocy is now on BIG SCREEN and in COLOR, for all to see.
ReplyDeleteThe bright side of all this is when they really need the troops to protect themselves from us, they probably won't be getting them. Almost like we need the states to look at election fraud, and they wouldn't. So, when they need troops because their might be some unrest, the states just ignore them and don't send them. Especially after what happened this week.
ReplyDeleteExactly. The way out of this nonsense (with an illegitimate junta-regime in DC) is for the governors to step up and lead. Defend the Constitution (national one AND the state ones - remember, the states have constitutions too!), refuse to go along with any garbage from DC, etc.
DeleteOnce everyone in the hustings figures out that the junta has no enforcement mechanism, it will collapse in a hurry. (And our impending alliance with Antifa will help! :-) )
can you imagine what the headlines would be if this happened when President Trump was in office .. it would be nothing but "Trump hates troops" - "Trump killing troops" erc erc ..
ReplyDeleteHey Don Surber, do you know who requested the presence of the Guard from the individual states? And then of course, what was their mission?
ReplyDeleteThanks
Hey, DFW, do you know who could have sent them right back home?
DeleteI've been wondering that too. Trump was still CiC and DC is a Federal District. Yet all the stories say that Pelosi summoned them. Is that true? Something doesn't add up.
Delete"Democrats control the military and will use it against political opponents just as they use the IRS, the FBI, and the major news networks."
ReplyDeleteI wonder how much longer young white males will continue to volunteer to defend a country that despises them.
Not the country, it's the Lefties, but, since we keep sending these clowns to DC, it may be the same issue.
DeleteDon't be surprised if before too long these junta clowns start talk about bring back the draft...
Delete@Snowgander
DeleteThat thought occurred to me too. I read recently that the Pentagon is concerned about the quality of recruits--that too many of them are too fat and stupid to make the cut.
If they have that much difficulty getting enough volunteers who make the grade, what makes them think things will be better with an army of truculent conscripts who don't want to be there.
Another wrinkle is what happens to women under such a regime. I can remember back all those years ago seething with resentment that I had to register and grovel before the draft board for a 2-S deferment while the girls got off free. But back then there was an unwritten compact: men went off to risk their lives to fight wars and so they got to run the show, while women stayed home and made babies. That compact has long since been broken, and I wonder how today's men will feel when they are seen as nothing more than cannon fodder while their sisters assume all the positions of power and privilege.
If we have to have a draft, it has to include women--not for combat, but at least let them be force to yield two years of their lives like men do.
"I wonder how today's men will feel when they are seen as nothing more than cannon fodder while their sisters assume all the positions of power and privilege."
DeleteI was actually thinking about that one back in 2016, when expectations were high that shrillary was going to sweep to power and launch a gynofascist regime on us. Remember all that blither about "The future is female!" and "Girls rule, boys drool" and other obnoxious and disgusting insults?
I really didn't see how that was going to work out well.
A few years back, Mark Steyn made some comment about the other demographic problem in China (not the main one of a population implosion, but the long-known one of the male/female ratio getting dangerously out-of-balance) - that given that gender imbalance, he wondered (jokingly) if the only way forward for China was to try to be "the first gay superpower since Sparta."
That got me thinking about the incipient shrillary regime and all the awful things they were saying about men. The plan for shrillary (and her team of b*ll-d*kes) was to try to organize society (even if they didn't realize it) just like classical Sparta has been organized.
Just think about this.
They (shrillary and her b*ll-d*ke buddies) were going to be the Spartiates - the ruling caste that would sit at the top and run everything.
Below them there would be a small class (only place a man could at best be, but lots of both genders there) of what the Spartans called the "Perioikoi" which meant "the dwellers about" for some reason (Spartan for "flyover country?"). This was a small class of "necessary" people due to their skills - merchants, artisans (like blacksmiths), etc.; they had no political rights but had modest social rights.
At the bottom was the vast mass of society - the "Helots" who were basically serfs who worked the estates (owned by the Spartiates and which supplied food and other necessities to the Spartiate class). They had no social or political rights, and were tied to their estates, period.
That was more or less the society that shrillary and co. had planned for us all.
But note there is one fatal flaw in all that.
The Spartiates were actually superb professional soldiers - so they could enforce the system... while shrillary and co. were not even close to being soldier-able.
It's actually similar to sniffy and co. now - they want to be Spartiates, but they couldn't fight their way out of a wet paper bag. Just keep that in mind moving forward...
The doofus from Dover is already starting to fold.

DeleteKeep up the pressure. They aren't up to it, and they'll all crack - even the mocha imposter.
DeleteChaos is our friend now...
The 'rats of DC, both Dimwit (the Evil Party) and Republi (the Stupider Party) do not care about the NG proles sent there to protect them from the horrible right wing Trump voters any more than they care about anyone other themselves individually. That includes you, me, and everyone else who is not an illegal invader (read as "Reliable Dimwitrat voter). The NGs are to be used and cast aside when no longer useful. Now that Slow Joe and the HO are ensconced in and about the White House without having been assassinated, the NG has outlived its current usefulness. As we knew was to be.
ReplyDeleteIf only the headline read Doctors Pull the Plug on Biden
ReplyDeleteHe has too many Plugs to pull ....
DeleteDon, that was a good one!
DeleteYou misspelled show of farce in the headline.
ReplyDeleteFour days in and the media considers him the country’s greatest president ever.
ReplyDeleteThis has to be the most disastrous first four days of any administration.
The point you are all missing is WHY DID TX SEND ANY to DC? The governor should have refused! Recall the TX governor and take that ass Cruz with you. Texas is fake!
ReplyDeleteYep.
DeleteAnd I'm wondering why Florida sent them also? Not convinced yet we know who ordered the DC Lockdown for the Installation.
DeleteYou mean the politician who is begging California companies to come to Texas and turning Texas blue. The one who has done his best to kill small business? That rat Ba$tard?
DeleteThe Swamp regards these soldiers as disposable props. As someone said "The Cloud People are not motivated by greed or a lust for power. They have those things. They are motivated by a sense of identity that starts with a hatred of the Dirt People. Their sense of self begins with not being anything like the people over whom they rule." Hence parking garages.
ReplyDeleteThey said military ballots went 99% for Biden--yet they don't trust the soldiers?
They can't even keep up with their own filthy lies anymore.
Just ANOTHER "can't let this happen again" - like VOTER FRAUD!!
