Its a #fascist show of force and a way for #RedStates to bully #BlueStates and blue cities. I see no difference between an invading army and these guard tbh. This is worth a #CivilWar tbh. Blue States must demand the withdrawl of all enemy Red State troops immeidately! www.cnn.com/2025/08/22/p...

"We used to say people who described Trumpism as 'fascism' were exaggerating, though now even mainstream media regularly uses the F-word. Right now, we should be wary of talking blithely about 'civil war.'”

"Red states are sending their National Guard troops to DC, too. Louisiana, Mississippi, Ohio, West Virginia and South Carolina are all deploying soldiers to help take over an American city.

We should see this as what it is: the first stage of a soft takeover by the neo-Confederacy."

The Neo-Confederate Takeover

The real invasion isn't immigration. It's red states sending their troops to take over blue ones.
