They just did this in Albuquerque. 71 Guard soldiers are there to “assist” police - ostensibly, they’re simply there to “free up” police from the mundanity of things like traffic accidents, wellness checks, etc, so they can “focus on crime”.
Overtly, this is slow-rolling the idea of using armed forces to occupy cities on home soil.
Whose says they’re moving the Guard into cities? I know Trump is angling to give them more power.
