DEVELOPING: President Trump is considering deploying up to 1,000 National Guard troops to D.C. and could make the announcement as early as tomorrow, according to one defense official and two U.S. officials. Officials stress that the decision is not final and no orders have been signed.
Can he do that, legally?
Oh, the decision is final and no formal order needed.
Right. It's already in his dirty head to do it.
Only to enlarge his own security force under this guise. Always jump to his self interest. That is all he is capable of.
Just another smoke curtain to distract attention from problem issues….
Trump is a convicted felon 34x’s and a pedophile whose name appears hundreds of times in the Epstein files.
Sounds like then Trump admin is preparing to do something that they expect is going piss A LOT of people off.
NUTS !!!!
Worst season of the west wing ever.
Could this simply be a distraction from the Epstein files?
He's so ridiculous.
Protest this action.
I wasn't even aware the district had its own national guard. On the topic, when we regain power it's absolutely time to make DC and/or Puerto Rico states.
Big Balls gets roughed up and Little Dick locks down DC
Epstein Epstein Epstein Epstein Epstein Epstein Epstein Epstein Epstein ...
This president is taking his revenge. Against his own country.
the problem is guns-guns used in crimes is the most dangerous to citizens safety-so make stronger restrictions on gun ownership-that is a solution-stop wasting our courageous national guardsmen on trumps ego
who is really running our country-Miller?Stone?Manaford?Voight?=project 2025-who is coming up with all these ludicrous but dangerous ideas-stop the masking-stop the domestic terrorism-stop commiting treason-they are destroying our 250 year history to protect our freedom & Constitution
Donald Trump is delusional. His delusions are driving policy. DC does not need troops in the street. Will Donald Trump's mental capacity ever be covered?
The Nation is being governed by a self-serving opportunist, a pussy grabing teenage pageant owner, a bankruptcy King, a Real Estate Magnet, and a Russian-loving New Yorker.
How much he still has his “parade” tanks??
Why? Because Big Balls got carjacked
we must have law n order in our nation's capital. we thank pres trump for protecting us we the ppl, n our visitors n guests. www.independent.co.uk/news/world/a...
Who is 'we'? Who are you, for that matter? You sound like a bot. We have police for police matters. If you want order, rules must be followed, including the ones that separate military from police in terms of domestic matters.
novapsyche: ty for ur reply. we the american ppl do not stand for lawlessness. crimes r out of control in dc. we must have law n order. if we could use military n fed agents to keep n maintain law n order, lets do it. we thank pres trump for protecting us from criminals. nypost.com/2025/08/11/u...
Either a bot or he’s drunk. Take your pick.
Why?
How come he did NOT do that on Jan 6
And he will. Totally wants to impress the dictators that he envys. If we didn't have so many greedy fuckers in government our guardrails would have worked.
I’ll stop talking about Epstein when they pull a green dildo out of Trump’s dead hands.
He already decided or he wouldn’t be talking about it.
MSNBC people, just make a nightly segment titled "Squirrel!" for stuff like this. No gravitas, but smirks will fine. Laughter too.
What for, though? Just because he fells like it, or...?
He is focused on D.C., but still no protection for kids who will be starting school soon.
Not one mainstream reporter will be ALLOWED to ask "on January 6th you didn't deploy the national guard, yet now you will to send homeless people to concentration camps. DC crime rate is at a 30 year low, isn't this another distraction from you being in the Epstein files?"
Trump calling up the National Guard for DC. Is four years too late.
This just may cause the outrage that will lead to DC statehood.
$$$$$ MONEY WASTER!! Tell him the money to pay for the guard will have to come from the money for his 747 or the White House ballroom addition. See how he feels.
Why?
They want Big Ball’s phone back. That phone must have some serious sh*t on it.
All because he’s in the Epstein files and wants us talking about truly anything but that. Fuck that orange bloated felon.
If he was then why wouldn’t Biden release them?
You’d have to be 100% certain Biden saw everything related to Epstein and if he personally directed for nothing to be done for you to pose that question. The president is not the top law enforcement individual. Trump is the only president known to be engaged in covering it up at this point.
It’s already known that 1000 people were tasked with reviewing and redacting Trump’s name in them. As a side note, all those involved in the Epstein trafficking shit should be fully prosecuted, regardless of any status, political affiliation, etc.
That reasoning is counterintuitive. If Biden didn't release them because there was nothing there. Then why won't Trump release them? Or if Biden didn't release them because he was protecting Democrats. Then why won't Trump release them? Casting shadows just darkens reality. Release the files.
Because there was a firewall between Biden & DOJ.
Exactly, as there should be.
Yes there’s rampant crime in DC. It’s being committed by the corrupt felon occupying our White House. Arrest him!
RELEASE THE FILES!
He needs control of DC in case he lost the midterms. Re redo the Jan 6th. Once a cheater always a cheater.
Dirty bastard always causing chaos
He is trying to normalize having troops in the streets. Republicans are allowing this to happen. The Supreme is allowing this to happen. Democracy is dying before our eyes.

National Guard needs to say hell no. Then make that fool eat his words.
All this cause Big Balls got beat up by a gang of kids. Oh, and the DC police stopped it
It wasn’t a gang of kids. It was two 15 year olds and one of them was a girl.
trump rapes.
WTF!!
Dear Tim Apple 🍎, WTheck? You better start giving us someDecent kid movies on Apple + for all of this bs! I can’t believe the enabling of all these powerful people.
Coup
He wouldn't want real patriots wanting to fight for democracy there under his nose.
Authoritarian takeover. It will be hard to come back from this.
Violent crime in DC has been declining. Per MPD data as of August 8, 2025, it's down 26% year-to-date vs. 2024, with homicides -12%, robberies -28%, assaults with dangerous weapons -20%, sex abuse -49%. This continues a trend from 2024's 35% drop, the lowest in 30+ years.
It’s a distraction and you all are buying it! You’re not a news organization you bow down to him like everybody else does!
Jesus H Christ, how many kids did he touch?
Can those troops look for the Epstein files too, looking that they will be there they can be really useful at something?!
Crime in DC at a 30 year LOW.
He can try all he wants to get away from the Epstein files , but it's not working.
L O L Recognizing the wind direction and flavor out there, huh? 😏 Time to amp up the desperate horseshit.
Good thing you guys wore your pink hats and got light exercise on a Saturday. You really showed them.
This is how the Nazi got hold of Germany. The sad thing is that nobody really see the dangers this all proposes 😢
Normalizing it so people get used to this kind of behavior and settings
Kakistocracy is government by the worst, least qualified, or most unscrupulous people. Trump will continue to lie, deflect, delay, deceive, connive, and create outrageous fraudulent excuses to troll, attack, and blame everyone for his failures. Visit ballotpedia.org/Elections_ca...
Instead of paying for the troops to go to DC, why not just use the money to build housing for the homeless?
And it’s illegal. Not that anyone seems to care, it’s just a PR campaign.
He's gonna have a tough time convincing the courts imo. www.justice.gov/usao-dc/pr/v...
They forgot to take down the web page 🤷♂️
This is the physical coup... Pay attention.
Here it is. He is militarising DC to insulate himself from potential rebellion. This is the beginning of the end….just how it ends is up to the American people.
Stop 👏 Focusing 👏 On 👏 This. That’s what he wants! Release the Epstein files!!!!!!

GET-RID-OF-JOKE-&-MIKA.--FUCKING-SELLOUTS
He did this and continues to deploy National Guard , and ICE picking up day workers ( not criminals!) with no due process … DC is next, who’s he after he plays king in DC?
Epstein Trump Files. Squirrel.
📌
He is not considering. He is braking the US constitution already. Trump, as usual, lies about the crimes in DC. All crimes in DC are way down. The latest data is as of Aug 8, 2025. By his own DoJ mpdc.dc.gov/page/distric...
This is why we need to give DC statehood. Its population is greater than Vermont and Wyoming and not far behind Alaska and N. Dakota. Also make Greenland the 52nd state just to shut him up.
deploying Federal Agents & National Guard troops with 'no justification' - None
If I was a member of the national guard I would quit.
Any vague justification for this?
The orange imbecile wants his own helter skelter
Why?
Ask the Cheeto currently occupying the WH since he has the authority to call up the national guard in DC.
One minute we are so broke we are firing government workers right and left, and the next we are throwing tons of money away on all these unnecessary deployments. All this cosplaying is costing a fortune for a govt that just had to increase the debt limit by many trillions of dollars.
You mean the child rapist is trying to distract everybody from the fact he’s a child rapist.
Just sicking that trump and his clown show are getting away with all what’s been going on and about to. What can any one do with some sort power!??? American going to the rubbish bin 🗑️
He's paranoid
Why is MSNBC not covering the protest across the nation and in the UK what has happened to mainstream media? Are they now not gonna report the news because they’re afraid of Trump too?
If Trump orders the National Guard to act against fellow Americans, who is committing treason?
He’s going to do it.
Call the NRA… get those “we the people” clowns out there! They were all about partying with tea and the Constitution, etc.
Another distraction. Don’t forget to release the Epstein files.
MSNBC IS LYING, REFUSING TO REPORT THE TRUTH ABOUT WASHINGTON DC 🧵thread bsky.app/profile/judd...
Another test. Supreme Court better be ready when he pushes back on them! Maybe it's time to pull back on that leash!
