500 more National Guard members to be deployed to DC after shooting

Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth said that 500 more National Guard troops will be deployed to Washington, D.C., after two National Guard members were shot blocks from the White House on Wednesday.
“That’s why President Trump has asked me, and I will ask the secretary of the Army to the National Guard to add 500 additional troops, National Guardsmen, to Washington, D.C.,” Hegseth told reporters on Wednesday during his trip to the Dominican Republic.
“This will only stiffen our resolve to ensure that we make Washington, D.C., safe and beautiful. The drop in crime has been historic. The increase in safety and security has been historic,” the Defense secretary added after his meeting with Dominican officials. “But if criminals want to conduct things like this, violence against America’s best, we will never back down. President Trump will never back down. That’s why the American people elected him.”
The request from Trump comes shortly after two members of the National Guard were “critically wounded” in a shooting on 17th and I Street. The Metropolitan Police Department said the suspect is in custody.

This is clearly fake news. SFP assured us that some random judge has blocked this move by Trump.
Time to recall the NG . Time to cut & run, just like Joe Biden.

One of my NG friends that is currently deployed on a particular Island Nation in the Persian Gulf is begging to come home and help secure D.C. right now.

Arm them at least with a sidearm! Insanity

Give them discretion to use lethal force

Bayonets are very intimidating. But sidearms too.

I don't really understand this move. One shitehead shot two people and now you add 500 NG. How long are they going to stay there? When does Trump send them back home? Is this going to happen in every big city? I just want to know the policy or endgame, I guess. Fight smarter, not harder.

Need to stop and frisk anyone who even resembles a middle easterner. Sorry not sorry. Too dangerous.

Kick all the Afgan Nationals out. One represents the entire community. We have Terrorists in our country. Trump should bomb the village the perp came from. Not being hyperbolic either. He should seriously do it.

So, the defense is to lessen players on the field?

How long are they going to stay there?
As long as it takes to clean up a crime ridden town?

You rotate them from different divisions.

It should as they are a jungle.

With liberal judges and prosecutors not jailing these animals it will take a long time for you to see the “end game”. Fighting smarter means over powering your opponent. Use some sanity for once.
