Who is activating them>? Only Trump can activate the DC Guard, no one else.

Great question..........

The DC Guard reports DIRECTLY to the President. The only way the DC Guard becomes reportable to either the Active Duty Army or Active Duty Air Force is if the President activates them on Title-10 orders.

Not to mention the vast majority of DC Guard leadership and rank and file DC Guardsmen are absolutely anti-Trump.

I don't know any more details besides what I posted, sorry. We should be prepared for military presence, regardless.

No worries. Anyone who says the Guard is going to be present has to also understand the command and control hierarchy.

" The District of Columbia Army National Guard is the Army component of the District of Columbia National Guard. As the District of Columbia is a federal district and not a state, the guard is placed under the authority of the President of the United States, unlike most other National Guard units which are headed by their state's governor.
