So, a request for the NG is under review?

Sure.

The Capitol Police are epic fails. The Pentagon is considering a request for force?

Notice how the Commentators are only talking about the safety of the Congress, and not the pRes.

I am still thinking about Iran's threat to do something today.

They should arrest Trump. Tell the SS he is now under arrest for inciting a riot.

I am told that the reluctance of DOD to call out the DC guard is because they would come under the command of POTUS, which would obviously be a problem.
