Just so you all know, no matter when the Mayor of DC wants to activate the DC National Guard, The Secretary of the Army is the one who says they can go. Now you are truthfully informed. Just remember who appointed the Secretary of the Army that was serving on Jan. 6th. This is one reason why DC should be a state.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but didn't the Mayor of DC have Pentagon approval 3 days before this happened? If the approval was already given, why were they waiting to get approval again? They should have been in front of the Capitol Building on the morning of, not waiting to load buses from someplace else.

You are wrong. 2 days and then the DOD had to approve the request. Remember, big difference between a mayor and a governor. This is one of the reasons DC should be a state!! The rest is now GOP insurrectionist history.

SFC Randy Hellenbrand - You are ok with the Federal Government being on a state's land and being influenced by that state?
