Officers set up a #checkpoint in one of D.C.’s popular nightlife areas, drawing #protests. #Troops were stationed outside the Union Station transportation hub as the 800 #NationalGuard members who have been activated by #Trump started in on missions that include *monument security*, community *safety* patrols & *beautification* efforts, the #Pentagon said.

A population already tense from days of ramp-up has begun seeing more significant shows of force across the city. #NationalGuard #troops watched over some of the world’s most renowned landmarks & Humvees took position in front of the busy main train station. Volunteers helped homeless people leave long-standing encampments — to where was often unclear.

#WashingtonDC officials & advocates spent much of the day trying to clear #homeless camps in the capital, which number in the dozens, urging people to go to shelters ahead of #federal #raids across NW #Washington that appeared to begin at about 9PM. All 800 #NationalGuard #troops that #Trump activated as part of his takeover of policing in the nation’s capital have now been mobilized, the #Pentagon said.

The " #smallgovernment" conservatives are praising Trump's decision to send #federal #troops to #DC.
That's a show of force & is not at all "small government". You guys don't care about "small government" for anybody except yourselves.

"The critical moment for sending #troops to help #Ukraine get the situation under control is right now."
Russia has been waging war against Europe for some time with its guerilla attacks on infrastructure. European "leaders" are all just too spineless to admit it because then they would have to respond.
Europe doesn't even need to put soldiers on the ground. European air forces could provide air support to Ukrainian ground forces while also destroying Russian air defences.
That would be a major force multiplier for Ukrainian ground forces and allow more Ukrainian long range drones and missiles to reach their targets deep in Russia.
Ideally, three main targets in Moscow need to be destroyed. The GRU headquarters, the FSB headquarters and the Kremlin.
You may have heard Russia broke through main Ukrainian defence lines in #Donbas.
It is true. Unfortunately.
Any chance of Russia seeking peace without maximalist demands went there. They’ll want even more now.
Russia doesn’t care about losses. These dirt-poor countryside folk paid more than their entire lives? Russians are totally okay with them dying.
The critical moment for sending #troops to help #Ukraine get the situation under control is right now.
Or our children WILL fight Russia.
…According to White House ofcls, #troops will be deployed to protect federal assets & facilitate a safe environment for law enforcement to make arrests. The #Trump admin believes the highly visible presence of law enforcement will deter violent crime. It is unclear how the admin defines providing a safe environment for law enforcement to conduct arrests, raising alarm bells for some advocates.
