[Lesh]

You are wrong again....

SECTION 1. The Secretary of Defense, except as provided in section 3, is authorized and directed to supervise, administer and control the Army National Guard and the Air National Guard of the District of Columbia (hereinafter "National Guard") while in militia status. The Commanding General of the National Guard shall report to the Secretary of Defense or to an official of the Department of Defense designated by the Secretary on all matters pertaining to the National Guard. Through the Commanding General, the Secretary of Defense shall command the military operations, including training, parades and other duty, of the National Guard while in militia status. Subject to the direction of the President as Commander-in-Chief, the Secretary may order out the National Guard under title 39 of the District of Columbia Code to aid the civil authorities of the District of Columbia.

A. It is not on the Mayor as your idiot MAGArat friend claimed
B. The Sec Def answers to the President of course

 

[Delldude]

The Mayor doesn’t have that power… ignorant one

Neither does the President.

Neither does the President.

The Sec Def answers to the President moron

LOL....Nice try.
President can not deploy troops in DC. He can only authorize a certain number to be activated, if need be....then deployed as needed by SECDEF.

If he tells the sec Def to deploy, the Sec Def either deploys or resigns.

Or like actually happens. He ignores the idiot President and the idiot President does nothing

He can't order NG troops to be deployed in DC. He can only authorize a certain number of troops to be activated by SECDEF.

Typically, the governor has the authority to activate guard troops within a state's borders. He or she informs the adjunct general to mobilize troops. The adjunct general sends the message down the chain of command.

It's more complicated in D.C., as are most things around here.

Mayor Muriel Bowser does not have the same authority over the D.C. National Guard that governors have over their states. She can only request guard troops from the Secretary of the Army. That request then gets sent up the chain of command to the Secretary of Defense for approval.
Even then, Bowser's jurisdiction is limited. Because of the District's finicky federal status of not being a state, she can only request guard troops to land that belongs to the city. That excludes federal territory, like the Capitol and its environs. The Secretary of Defense needs to approve the deployment of National Guard troops from any jurisdiction at federal land like the Capitol complex.

Ok. Now that we have debunked the stupid claim that the DC mayor can call out the NG..

Your link does NOT say that the Prez can not do so. He of course can. He does so THRU the Sec Def.

Only authorizes troops to be used as needed. Can not directly deploy troops in DC, like you try to imply.

Trump absolutely has the power to order the Guard to be deployed.

The mayor does not

The mayor does note wrong.

With that said, it should not be out of your reach to provide documentation to support your claim.

Dude, you can dance all night about this and you are correct that the Pres is the CIC for the District of Columbia National Guard troops, He still has no authority to deploy troops in DC....Only can authorize a certain amount of troops to be activated , at SECDEF's option.

The Police Chief points out that the US Govt failed to prevent J6 and faed to protect the Capitol, citing bloated beurocracy and failed leadership as the biggest reasons.

The alarming thing he points out is that, over 2 years later, the Capitol has not been made any safer because nothing has been done.

Instead of w years of 'Get Trump' perhaps Democrats should have focused on tbe actual security breakdowns and do something to make the Capitol safer.

they have
