Pentagon official confirms plan as House minority leader Jeffries says president is ‘playing’ with Americans’ lives
Planning is underway to send national guard troops to Chicago, an official at the Pentagon confirmed to ABC News on Sunday.
“We won’t speculate on further operations. The Department is a planning organization and is continuously working with other agency partners on plans to protect federal assets and personnel,” a Department of Defense official said, according to ABC.
Earlier on Sunday, Hakeem Jeffries, House minority leader and New York Democratic congressman, said Donald Trump has “manufactured a crisis” to justify sending federalized national guard troops into Chicago next, over the heads of local leaders.
If there’s so many States’ national guards surrounding the White House in DC right now, why havent the attacked Trump yet?
Isn’t their job to protect Democracy?
It’s all of their jobs to protect us from all enemies, foreign and DOMESTIC, and nobody is a bigger national security threat than Trump.
