"The Independent has contacted the reported states for comment, as well as the central National Guard leadership and the Department of Homeland Security.

The Guardsmen will be serving under Title 32 Section 502F authority, in which they technically remain under state command and control, but can assist with federal missions and are paid with federal funds. The status allows them to avoid running afoul of a federal law limiting military involvement in domestic law enforcement..."

This is in preparation for 2026 and 2028. Any Dem win will be called "fraudulent"—no proof required. That is, IF we have elections at all. Trump can start a war or claim we're in one and cancel them. He can use any excuse he wants. Massive uprisings will be violently ended.

Trump and Republicans will refuse to cede power. Trump will refuse to leave or will appoint a successor.

We're done as a Republic.

Democrats don't know how to fight this, are not willing to fight it, and don't have the power federally or in the states to fight it.

Remember the comment from some MAGAWhacko about "it will be bloodless if the leftists let it be"?

That's where they're headed.
