The Secret Service has lead command for everything inauguration. Just because DC Mayor and Nancy requested them, they are under Secret Service until noon, Jan 20, they report to POTUS. That's why Nancy is so crazed to remove POTUS.

In a state of emergency, the prez commands the NG, and they can work in concert with the Marines.

Yep. DC Trump. FEMA As well. Tense situation. That BS letter from the JCOS has nothing to do with anything. One of those on the letter is even blocked by Twitter. Think he is pissed off?

Get your popcorn. Probably nothing will go down but these days it probably will. Watch a National Guard Private on his lonesome arrest Biden LOL. Just blocks him from swearing in and cuffs him. A god damn private. It would be Amazing.

They re on title 10 orders (Federal) vs Title 32 (State). POTUS controls them.

"Command" and "ability to activate NG" are two different things. The ability to activate the Guard falls with a state Governor. Since DC is not a state, the local NG units ability to activate falls to the POTUS.

Once activated, the units are considered active duty Army and fall under the unified command structure that has been put in places for whatever operation their doing.
