I know Trump is the Commander in Chief, and has authority over the troops. That didn't stop the NG from being directed into DC without Trump's directive on Jan. 6th.
Nope, NG is actually called by State governors. DC NG is the only unit that is under POTUS control, unless they are federalized by the President. That can happen if 1. Foreign entities invade 2. there is an insurrection or 3. can't get the job done with regular troops
I was under the belief that only potus can call on the NG??

Why would you believe that? Are you a fucking head case or what? The NG is owned by that respective state's governor, NOT the president
DC does not have a governor, not a state.
