The only thing I saw related to the Marines was 3 ospreys. The other aviation assets aren't usmc.

What?





He is correct. A President can actually send marines to any location in the world directly without congressional consent.

Thus the “as the President may direct” portion of the Marine Corps’ job description

It is crazy they need all of this military to keep the inauguration safe but somehow with only a handful of police and secret service managed to thwart an insurrection on the 6th. It is almost like it was just a group of people that wanted their voices to be heard.

So, your contention is he cannot send the Army or Air Force without congressional approval?

Not to mention the video could be from anywhere at any time. Weather in DC today looks mostly cloudy yet it’s all sunshine in that video

It looks like Patrick Byrne (who I think is a scammer psyop badhat operator) swiped/reposted @jaymb1719 of one of the aircraft videos they post from: it looks like the UK some where.

https://www.tiktok.com/@jaymb1719/video/6914393882205719809?lang=en

Yeah he filmed this in the UK/Europe you can tell by the vehicle in the video above.

https://www.tiktok.com/@jaymb1719/video/6915089581327109378?lang=en

Could be from Germany from the looks of the vehicle in the first video.

I agree. He is not to be trusted, imo. Deliberately misleading with this video. There are leaves on the trees.

Somethings about that video don't seem right. But proof doesn't matter to you guys as long as it strokes your insurrection boner.

Yup, as cajunangelle posted, JJBot strikes again.

Having been there numerous times ......

The Marines are always IN Washington

These are the guys that gave me tours of the White House that the public NEVER sees.

Marine Barracks Washington, D.C., also known as "8th & I," is the oldest active post in the Marine Corps. It was founded by President Thomas Jefferson and Lt. Col. William Ward Burrows, the second commandant of the Marine Corps, in 1801.

Located on the corners of 8th & I Streets in southeast Washington, D.C., the Barracks supports both ceremonial and security missions in the nation's capital.

The Barracks is home to many nationally recognized units, including the Marine Corps Silent Drill Platoon, the Marine Drum and Bugle Corps, the Marine Band, the official Marine Corps Color Guard, and the Marine Corps Body Bearers. It is also the site of the Home of the Commandants, which, along with the Barracks, is a registered national historic landmark.
