Thanks to Jessica Yellin (News Not Noise) I was alerted today (8/25/25) that Trump today signed an executive order instructing Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth to create a “specialized unit” within DC’s National Guard “dedicated to ensuring public safety and order.”
Under this same executive order, Hegseth is also charged with ensuring “the availability of a standing National Guard quick reaction force” for “rapid nationwide deployment” for “quelling civil disturbances and ensuring the public safety [sic] and order whenever the circumstances necessitate.”
To read the relevant language in its entirety (which I highly recommend), see the White House webpage deceptively entitled "ADDITIONAL MEASURES TO ADDRESS THE CRIME EMERGENCY IN THE DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA", Section 2(d)(i) and (ii) at this link:
All the liberal state capitols will be targeted. It hasn't been the Dept. of War since we entered WWII.
