Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz mobilizes state National Guard amid ongoing protests
(CNN) — Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz has mobilized the state National Guard to support the Minnesota State Patrol, a spokesperson for the guard said Saturday.
So just saw something pointed out how this could be an interesting ploy:
If the Governor activates the Guard, it’s a barrier to the President doing so. If the Minnesota Guard is active, courts can say there’s no reason to bring in Guard from other states.
Also brinksmanship. The regime is pushing hard to provoke an episode to justify massive retaliation. Having the Guard active and present forces the question of who will be shooting whom.
