Generally speaking, it is local government which requests National guard from the federal government. Although it has to be sanctioned by the pentagon, they generally do not deploy unless requested by state or local officials.
generally. but is this the general case?
Technically is supposed to be Pentagon, correct.
you dont know that it wasnt President Trump.
Doesn’t matter. Wasn’t DJT, so we know it was the enemy.
i mean he said in video that he immediately authorized natl guard in response to capital protest...
i just wasnt sure if that lead to the total today of 7000 troops
DJT said in his speech that he authorized the national guard deployment after the capital event
What JP said - we dont know the reason they are there yet
