Joining forces from three other Republican-led states, the Mississippi National Guard will deploy 200 troops to Washington as part of the Trump administration’s ongoing federal policing and immigration overhaul in the nation’s capital.
Mississippi Gov. Tate Reeves said in a statement Monday that he has approved the deployment of approximately 200 Mississippi National Guard Soldiers to Washington, D.C.
“Crime is out of control there, and it’s clear something must be done to combat it,” Reeves said.
Mississippi joins three other states that have pledged to deploy hundreds of National Guard members to the nation’s capital to bolster the Republican administration’s operation aiming to transform policing in the Democratic-led city through a federal crackdown on crime and homelessness.
Seriously? Mississippi going to DC to tell them how to run a city? I say this as somebody in Louisiana who has spent most of my life in the deep south surrounded by a glass house, but everybody knows you need to focus on getting your shit together.
What the fuck is happening? Now Mississippi is sending their National guard. I swear this is going to turn into an American Reichstag fire or another Tulsa race riot, considering the demographic of DC, I can see these southern racists equating cleaning up DC to getting rid of as much of the black population as possible
Thats it. Every day my son of at his moms and I’m financially able, I’m spending it protesting in DC.
