The Pentagon is set to approve the extended deployment of the National Guard at the U.S. Capitol for roughly two more months, defense officials said Tuesday.
Hawley ain’t happy about this.
Unless he can personally select which NG members are on guard.
Maybe the Bidens will lend him Major. It’s either that or:
Idiot!
Hawley and his encouragement of the mob on January 6 are at least partially responsible for the need for this security measure.
I can’t even like that. They are sick fucks.
What does it say about the success – or lack there of – of the previous administration that after all the exhortations by their orange “president” the Capitol needs to be surrounded by thousands of armed troops to protect it and our leaders from riotous mobs of American citizens?
Heck of a job Donnie!
Funny…Hawley looks more like a Freshman Junior-Cub Senator than a Generalissimo…
Was it the Newsmax or OANN reporter?
OMIGOD…are we gonna have to go thru ANOTHER few weeks with the whining aholes sniveling about ‘prison’??? Really?
$500,000,000 is somewhat less than .03% of Donnie’s $1.9 Trillion tax cut for the upper crust.
That would still be less than .1% of our annual defense spending.
It hardly seems a debatable cost for insuring Congress’s safety.
Not sure. Fox maybe?
“…the cost of deploying about 26,000 Guard troops to the U.S. Capitol from shortly after the Jan. 6 riot … is nearly $500 million.”
Send the bill to Rump. Oh, right, he doesn’t really have any money and uses other people’s money. What a cluster-fuck that orange blob created.
“No, just one reporter.”
U.S. military officials have said the cost of deploying about 26,000 Guard troops to the U.S. Capitol from shortly after the Jan. 6 riot to this Friday,
A little rough on the 26,000, but I guess it’s better than bring deployed to Iraq. At least in DC the locals want them there.
It’s definitely the moral high ground not to put Joe Biden’s name on the big relief checks that are soon to go out. But I fear it’s a mistake. (Josh)
Maybe its time for Dems to start a massive “Thanks Joe” meme and make it clear that we are thankful for the whole Covid stimulus package.
“The Biden family will euthanize their beloved Major as soon as the Senate euthanizes that rabid little lapdog Lindsey Graham.” - Jen Psaki, Speaker of Truth
How long will the National Guard remain on Capitol Hill? Probably for as long as the Qidiots have dates for Trump to regain power.
If they want to euthanize the poor dog for biting a security agent, then what should they do to Trump for getting 5 people killed and almost a host of elected representatives?
Excellent point!
Until arrests of former and current government figures get made, may as well bring on Chevy Chase to repeat this headline every couple of months (along with updates on Francisco Franco’s condition).
