I haven’t made up my mind about him yet. Kidding.

Ah thanks! I am learning a lot about the national guard!

Well this aged well. For real, it did.

This would be a recipe for disaster, but I’m curious about something. Hypothetically, if he sends Texas national guard troops to Chicago, could Pritzker call up
Illinois national guard to protect the people of Chicago? I don’t know enough about those laws.

WA needs to arrest and prosecute ICE agents when they break laws.

Wait I thought we knew this? That Covid acted kind of like measles in this way?

I am begging blue state governors to have lunch this week with your adjutant general of the National Guard.

Cannot stress enough how important this relationship is going to be in the near future.
