DHS officials requested 20,000 National Guard troops three weeks ago, but this memo details what duties those troops will be asked to perform. The memo, dated May 9, from Andrew Whitaker, the executive secretary at DHS, says the department will need up to 3,500 Guard personnel for its requirement to “Attempt to Locate — Fugitives.” Another 2,500 Guard soldiers would be needed for detention support.
The memo says up to 10,000 troops would be needed for transportation support, including “intra-and inter state transport of detainees/unaccompanied alien children.” And another 1,000 troops would be used for such duties as document translation and interview assistance.

Is the National Guard supposed to engage in policing?
I don’t think so. This is very gestapo like shit regardless. “Unacompanied alien children” makes me want to puke.
Well, it’s been done before. And I’m pretty sure this administration is hoping for similar results to what they got at Kent state. I doubt they remember what happened afterward.
I mean, last time he did say that he wanted another Kent State and it seemed rather like unusual honesty from the compulsive liar.
Didnt they get called to supress anti police brutality protests and when they got tired, they dropped some elite paratrooper unit to make bunker bitch feel safe again?
