    FBI vetting Guard troops in DC amid fears of insider attack

    I have a family member that's been called to D.C. I'm really hoping we can get through this Inauguration without more drama.

    What do you think?

    I think the ruling class is paranoid. They obviously value their lives far far more than the plebes. It is all fine and dandy when Antifa/BLM burn/loot/murder their way through a summer death against the working classes. Good God though if a mob gets within a country mile of the ruling class they bring in the greatest mass of military forces on American soil in my lifetime.

    I think it will go off "without drama".

    Less than 52 Hours left of Trump's Term.

    Still, as to the OP, it is TRAGIC that Trump has Denigrated America to such a point...
    ...that it would even be considered possible that The Guard could be infiltrated with traitors.

    Scary.

    Thanks alot, Trump! :smh:

    This.

    Saved me a lot of typing!

    As mentioned before I think they were scared and they were just as scared as our shop owners and citizens have been for the last year when it got out of hand. Maybe now that they've actually seen what happens they will care more about the people next time, because there will be a next time, that is guaranteed, unfortunately

    Drama we are used to and expect. Violence is what we need to avoid. Good luck to your family member may he or she stay safe.

    A reservist with Secret security clearance was identified as a terrorist/rioter but as of noe he has not been arrested. Our military does have a bigger percentage of pro Trumpocity types than the general population so every helmet needs to be looked under. That is sad.
    Yet not surprising because the cancer of Trumpism has spread through our population.

    Yes because we need the military to install our despot dictator "president".

    I don't recall this much drama with any other exiting POTUS. I'm looking forward to not seeing Tweet tantrums.

    Thank you.

    And the paranoia of the ruling class may very well be justified.....

    I remember but it was a long time ago, 2017.

    The younger peeps might not remember back that far.

    I only saw the tweets when somebody posted them here on the Forum. So I guess I could agree and say I won't miss the retweets.

    It'll be worse next time, too, because the "progressive" sturmabteilung know that their comrades and enablers in the Democratik party and the LW MSM have got their backs.

    Biden has already crapped on the police, so why stop there?

    It is not out of the realm of possibility that the Democrats purge conservatives out of the military. Remember these are the same people that purged the Iraqi military and created an insurgency for them to fight against for decades. Perhaps they did it on purpose because they wanted the civil war/instability, or maybe they were too stupid to understand the relationship between cause and effect. Maybe that is what they are now aiming for in America. I can't make up mind if they are geniuses or idiots, it would depend entirely are on their real motivations.

    Does it ever strike you as odd that the most privileged white people on the planet are stripping rights from the rest of America and giving themselves more power under the guise of fighting "white supremacists"? ROFLMAO... the white supremacists oppressing America are doing it in the name of fighting themselves. It is a clown universe with nonstop clowns all the way down.

    A Modest Proposal: Each unit be assigned a Political Officer. They will be responsible for monitoring any wrong-think of individual soldiers and if severe enough, can be referred for "retraining." This will provide a way to establish the political reliability of each unit in the Armed Services. Since our form of Democracy can only exist if all forms of dissent are crushed, this will enhance democratic values.

    Well since we have seen that among the terrorists who invaded the capitol we had several active and retired military, numerous active police from various states and cities, and even elected officials who have had to resign. It is obvious taking an oath meant nothing to any of these people so we cannot be too careful.

    As to the bolded part, sadly you may be correct.

    TRUMP'S Unrelenting 4-Year Campaign (of HATE and DIVISION) has Mainstreamed (and Enabled) Trump-Inspired Domestic Terrorists.

    The FACT that Trump's 4 Years has Directly CAUSED this Explosion in Trump-Inspired Domestic Terrorism, means that America's Greatest Terror Threat now comes from Within.

    A Tragic (and Lingering Effect) of Trump's Mistaken Election.

    Once again, just like everyone else, I am wishing for a safe (and uneventful) Inauguration Day.

    If putting DC on Lockdown is the price that we have to pay to get rid of that Trump IMBECILE (once and for all) it will be well worth it.

    What are they supposed to be looking under every helmet for? What is it you think they should do when they find a conservative / Republican / Trump supporter in the military?

    We have already seen what Trump can do in 24 hours, 50+ is not that comforting.

    I can only say for certain, "I do not know". There are far too many players involved, and we still are waiting for Trump's list of pardons, which I am sure will be shocking on its own. Should that list of pardons not be controversial, then yes, we should be in the clear for a smooth Inauguration.

    What you posted is sad....and creepy.

    Maybe you totalitarians should get your troops in AntiFa and BLM to protect your Dear Leader, since they're more reliable than the men and women serving in the National Guard.

    Lighten up. You cannot take a bit of levity. My guess is that those wearing helmets at the terrorist attack were not military. The helmets I saw appeared to be East German Communist or Yugoslav Communist surplus helmets.

    In the event you honestly do not understand there is no problem with conservative, Republican, or Trump supporter per se. It is the Terrorists that apparently Trump fired up.

    Why strip them of earned benefits and give them a dishonorable discharge, it's the enlightened, compassionate, inclusive progressive way. I truly fear what a sizable number of my "fellow citizens" would enthusiastically inflict on those who would dare to reject their progressive "Utopia".
