A U.S. senator is asking why thousands of National Guard troops remain in the nation's capital weeks after they flooded the city to protect the next U.S. president.
An estimated 25,000 uniformed soldiers were streaming into Washington, D.C. for Joe Biden’s inauguration and now, two weeks later, approximately 7,000 are still there.
“We don't need 7,000 National Guardsmen here,” Sen. Tom Cotton, speaking on the “Washington Watch” program, told host Tony Perkins. “We shouldn't turn the Capitol into an armed fortress or an armed camp."

You would think if they were there to protect something they would have magazines in their weapons. I haven't seen any magazines in the weapons at anytime during this whole thing.
ReplyDeleteYes and it hasn't just started, as when I pulled perimeter guard duty,just once as I had been promoted afterwards, the machine gun was the only one with ammo, we peons had empty rifles. Though that was at USARV Headquarters where not much happened.
