Nat'l Guard Wants to Pull Out of D.C.: Pelosi Says "No"

 You don't have to be a genius to read between the lines here.

...Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin overruled the chief of the National Guard Bureau, ordering 2,280 troops to remain at the U.S. Capitol. 

Gen. Daniel R. Hokanson, chief of the National Guard Bureau, laid out in a memo his assessment that the National Guard cannot and should not be required to cater to the Capitol Police’s request, urging that the National Guard is already spread too thin amidst the coronavirus pandemic, civil unrest and wildfires our country has seen, according to Fox News. 

“Efforts to date have not secured enough volunteers among supporting states to meet the USCP request of 2,280 soldiers, nor Option B of 1000 soldiers,” the memo stated. 

“I am concerned that the continued indefinite nature of this requirement may also impede our ability to man future missions as both adjutants general and guardsmen alike may be skeptical about committing to future endeavors,” it added. ...

Pelosi told Austin exactly what to do and Austin--a Man in Full, we're told--bent over and did it.

Austin--the Man in Full--failed to cite any credible threats supporting Nancy's decision.  But given the Democrats' control over BLM/Antifa revealed by Time Magazine, if Nancy needs a riot or two, she can order them up.

This.  Is.  Deep.  State.
