2,000 National Guard Troops Sworn in as Special Deputy U.S. Marshals

Two thousand National Guard troops in Washington, D.C. to protect the inauguration this week have been sworn in as Special Deputy U.S. Marshals. The move comes after reports surfaced that there were concerns some of the troops may be loyal to the current administration.

SS, Waffen SS, Wermacht – this is how it begins folks.

Any Republicans anywhere saying a word?

Notice “no intelligence indicating and insider threat” exists. Are you vetting for political views? that is not normal and yes, I’ve protected Presidents and Vice Presidents many times over my 3 decades of uniformed service. I ask again, for what are you vetting?

“As is normal for military support to large security events, the Department will vet National Guardsmen who are in Washington, DC. While we have no intelligence indicating an insider threat, we are leaving no stone unturned in securing the Capitol.” – A/SD Chris Miller

This is bullsπ^~!! Also, political vetting of troops ongoing?? As @RichHiggins_DC noted, that is SS Waffen BS. @RobManess said troops should file IG complaints. Acting SecDef Miller admitted the vetting, and apparently Pelosi and Schumer insisted on it. If so, COs must refuse!

Huh?
