Guam National Guard Chief: Our soldiers are 'Non Partisan' despite marching on office of Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene's office
[LI] The Guam National Guard apparently has soldiers stationed in D.C. as part of the charade that the Capitol remains under some dire threat requiring troops from around the nation to encamp in the nation’s capitol in a show of force for months.

Republican Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene in a CPAC speech mistakenly referred to Guam as not being part of America. In fact, it’s an American territory and its residents are American citizens. To protest against Greene, a Guam Democratic Congressman led some of those troops, in uniform, in a protest march to confront Greene. We covered the story in, Congressman Brings National Guard To Confront Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene Over Guam Status Gaffe:

In a totally inappropriate move, Guam Congressman Michael San Nicolas, who is under an ethics investigation, led a group of Guam National Guard in uniform to Greene’s office to confront her. She wasn’t there at the time, but the visual of military-fatigued National Guard engaging in a political protest directed at a Congressman, in the halls of the Capitol no less, was another sign that the military is losing its bearing in the age of Biden.

Here is the video, posted by The Hill:

#3 Clown show.

I wonder if douche even told the soldiers what was up, "hey come with me for a sec." because that looks rather casual walking.

Don't worry about it, everybody knows Guam is sinking into the Pacific, it'll be over in 9 years anyway when every bit of ice on earth melts...

#5 One question is whether the senior officers of Guam’s National Guard are politicized (possibly), another whether the troops are, or as swksvolFF points out, even knew what they were being asked to do. But absolutely Guam Congressman Michael San Nicolas, who is under an ethics investigation knew exactly what he was playing at.

It would have been fun if the senior soldier had been required to explain — on video — exactly what they were doing there and who had ordered them to do so.

#7 The head of Guam National Guard that cleared this should be forced to resign. Head fo the Capital Police that allowed the guard to come in to intimidate a Congressperson should be forced to explain themself publicly.
