Hegseth signs memo authorizing arming of Guard in DC

Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth has signed a memo authorizing National Guard troops deployed in Washington, D.C., to carry weapons if their mission requires it.

Two U.S. defense officials stressed to Military Times that Guard leadership in the nation’s capital has not issued an order to arm Guard members, who currently remain unarmed, but that status could change in the coming days.

The memo, according to one official, was addressed to the chief of the National Guard Bureau and the Secretary of the Army.

Hegseth’s decision would allow the roughly 2,000 troops now mobilized in Washington to expand their operations, which are currently in low-crime tourist areas, to possible security patrols in neighborhoods that struggle with crime.

…. Not to mention the cost.

The cost for a deployment of about 2,000 Guard soldiers averages around $20 million per month, Manner said, and could negatively impact readiness by taking money away from Guard drills and individual training.

It is not. It is an indication of what people, i.e. market, thinks the future of the economy is going to be.

As I've said; it's a "forward" looking indicator, i.e. a sentiment, a feeling, a vibe, etc. of the future. Doesn't mean they are always right or wrong.

Pelosi doesn't put her $$ into some stock when she knows it's going to tank, based on inside legislation information. Wouldn't be prudent.

Nope. I trust a 18 yo PFC straight from BCT more than I trust a democrat any day of the week.

Well I’ll easily admit to not being familiar with firearms but deploying troops not trained in police procedures and dealing with the public with firearms seems like a recipe for a shooting to me.

The army should not be assigned to police the very citizens that its mission is designed to protect.

when democrat mayors stop violating the law then the National Guard won't be needed. your concerns are nonsense these are trained troops with more training than any cop ever had.



what would you have these troops stop crime with? harsh words? you;d get the troops killed not the suspected criminal

What laws are these democrat mayors supposedly breaking? If you are referring to sanctuary city policies then you should know that’s not against the law.

While there are specific federal statutes that require state and local officials to aid federal immigration authorities, the federal government cannot force state and local governments to enforce federal immigration law.

U.S. military is trained to defeat the enemy while accomplishing the mission. That usually means killing the enemy by the most effective means possible. The citizens of the United States are not the enemy.

The military should never be deployed to police civilians in any capacity except during times of emergency or insurrection. Neither of these situations apply here.

Using the language “Fat Bitch Cunt” and “Demonrat Cunt” isn’t the best way to make your point.

But I guess using language like that is useful to distract from the truth that your argument is simply untrue.

Could just be the NG is their to protect or assist the under-funded police, while the local government is exposed as the liars and gas lighters that they are about protecting their citizens.

To Be Fair: Maybe they could have deployed a large army of social workers to go around, door to door, to council the "misguided" citizens and government grifters to just be better persons and help them to see the peace, joy and wisdom of the happinesses of their fellow man. Maybe call it the Be Best campaign.

Seems a bit dangerous though. Maybe we send the armed Army with them, going door to door, and leaving them at street corners as well to coach up any stragglers.

So! We supplied the armed Army, now the lefties can supply their social(ist) worker's party types.

Gheeze! This schiff kinda makes your head spin at times.

[Why_Yes_I_Do]

We're in! Sure, it took a long time to infiltrate the Dem party. We need to make sure our inside gal-pal gets as much air time as possible.

A speaker at the DNC summer meeting this week urged Democrats not to ‘take the bait’ on Trump’s crackdown on crime in Washington, DC. She suggested that carjackings don’t even matter to many Americans...

Migrant crime and carjackings ‘don’t matter to that many Americans,’ left-wing think tank VP tells Democrats

Insha Rahman, the vice president for advocacy and partnerships at the Vera Institute of Justice, made the shocking statement as she framed Trump’s Washington, DC, crime crackdown as a “huge opportunity” for the Democratic Party.

“You want to talk about the crime issues voters care about,” Rahman explained to Democrats, as she shared the results of a recent poll commissioned by Vera’s political advocacy arm, showing which types of crimes respondents believe will most impact them personally…

“Don’t take the bait because most Americans are more worried about how we are going to address mental health issues, the visible homelessness that we see on streets, and how do we deal with mental health and other issues that drive the sort of random incidents that scare all of us – that’s what you should be talking about.” …

“Don’t take the bait and talk about migrant crime or carjackings or the things that actually don’t matter to that many Americans,” Rahman said.

No earthly idea how she managed to get them to ignore things like murder, armed robbery, car jackings and other horrific crimes. Dang! She is good. She manages to keep them laser focused on the 5% and ignoring the 95%. God's speed Insha and thank you for your service to our country.

See her in action here.

I think we may have a lock on the mid terms already.

Your ignorance again betrays you. The oath is not to the President or the people. It is to the Constitution. If that means killing Americans then so be it... if you doubt me, tell me about the Army of the Potomac.

What? Insurrection you say?

Okay explain to me what happened at Waco.. The U.S. Army provided military assets for the Waco siege, including M3 Bradley infantry fighting vehicles and M728 Combat Engineer Vehicles (CEVs), which were used by the FBI Hostage Rescue Team.
The CEVs were modified M-60A1 tanks equipped with booms and bulldozer blades, used to punch holes in the Branch Davidian compound to deliver CS gas. The Bradleys, which lacked hydraulic booms, could only deploy tear gas via 40 mm Ferret CS gas rounds fired from grenade launchers. These armored vehicles were also used to destroy perimeter fencing, outbuildings, and vehicles belonging to the Branch Davidians. Laughingly its claimed that FBI agents operated them... which I highly doubt. They are NOT difficult to drive (they can be a lot of fun), but they were not road marched or transported to Waco by the FBI.

Sapper, you are going to have to explain your position further. I’m not sure what in the statements I’ve made indicates ignorance of the law or the constitution.
