The politicians fortify the defenses around their workplace using resources paid for by the taxpayers.

Taxpayers and private business owners are left to fend for themselves against attacks by rioters. These same politicians tell law enforcement to “stand down” and let the melee happen against the people they are supposed to represent. If someone dares protect themselves or their belongings, they risk being prosecuted by the very same political machine backed up by a biased judicial system.

There is no occupation happening anywhere in this country. The NG is in DC to put on a show and virtue signal.

Break this down a little more.

What is this “show” for?

How is it “ virtue signaling?” What virtue is being signaled?

I understand your sentiment, but I bet they’ll fire on you.

Of that I have no doubt. I will never kill a fellow man except in the most dire of circumstances to defend myself or my family from imminent death.

So NG troops in the Capitol building at the invitation and insistence of Congress = occupation? Got it.

Yes. And it’s not just the capitol building...



This map shows the self described green zone, no in or out without approval of the occupying forces.

I look forward to nothing out of the ordinary happening on 1/20, and nothing coming out of your “occupation”

Well so do I. In your “it’s all for show and virtue signaling”...what show is the commander in Chief trying to put on or did he not give approval for this?

shite, remember when he sent federal agents to Portland to project the Federal courthouse that was being set on fire every night? The Left called them "Trumps Gestapo" and lost their damn minds

There is always a massive amount of security in DC for Inaugurations. Clearly this time it is being out front and center so that a picture can be painted that trump supporters are evil and dangerous, and require extra force because of the “insurrection”

That has plainly been the media, military’s, Congress’, and a lot of Republican’s talking points since the 6th.

This is a giant photo op meant to prevent Trump supporters from showing their faces on 1/20.

As far as Trump’s approval, he’s been peaced out for weeks. Besides, these things are not planned by the President on a personal level. I highly, highly doubt he gives a shite what the NG does for the Inauguration.

This is the correct answer. It's a show of force and self-importance.
