    “Join the National Guard and sweep leaves in many American cities, be hated by the locals. Pay negotiable (if you get any LOL).”

      Also I think even the WH wants to avoid the optics of one state’s National Guard blocking another. Which is a possibility in a Democrat-run state. This is making me nervous because I’m in adjacent Arkansas with very cooperative Sarah Sanders and the high-crime-rate LIttle Rock… fuck me

    Did ICE already meet their “execute people in the middle of the street” quota for Chicago?

      I’d be willing to bet it’s because of the legal pushback they’re getting for sending the national guard into states that don’t want it.

    It’s literally the dumbest shit ever. What happens with crime after the Nasty Girls pull out? How do you expect to fix crime if there isn’t a constant presence?

    Doesn’t Memphis have a very high black population? Based on how conservatives have been these past couple days, I wouldn’t be surprised if that was the reason.
