#1 ...Interestingly, DOD has told DC rather bluntly that they were not getting any help from the Guard:

Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin rejected the request because the Department of Defense has "determined providing this support would negatively impact the readiness of the DCNG and have negative effects on the organization and members," the official said.

However, as Billy Mays used to say, "But wait, there's MORE!!!" :

The official said grant funding through FEMA's Emergency Food and Shelter Program is sufficient. "We understand SAMU First Response has received grant funding through FEMA's Emergency Food and Shelter Program and has indicated that sufficient EFSP funds exist at this point to provide migrant assistance."

That's about as direct a slap as you're gonna get without direct physical contact.

Mayor Bowser's response was, "Bowser told reporters on Friday that she wants to continue to work with the Pentagon to ensure political considerations "are not a part of their decision."

If Muriel Bowser is accusing the Biden Administration of 'political considerations' on this subject, it's possible that the Blue on Blue warfare is just getting started.

PS - And it's interesting that Her Honor's response to this - instead of calling on the residents of some of America's richest zip codes to meet their rhetoric and step up and help - is to call for guys with guns who come under her direct control.

Funny, that.

#6 50 total is a state of emergency in NY but it’s just a fraction of the daily crossings at any of the Texas entry points?

#7 They are not bussed there against their will. They are asked where they want to go.
