Media Stick with DC Mayor in Her Two-Faced Approach to National Guard and Protesters

Last June, Washington DC Mayor Muriel Bowser demanded that National Guard forces be removed from the capital because the protests over George Floyd were “peaceful.” But now, Mayor Bowser is requesting National Guard forces during the congressional certification of Joe Biden’s victory because "people who are coming here to look for confrontations."

On Sunday, she told Jonathan Capehart on MSNBC her message to local residents is stay out of the downtown and “let the police department do its work, let's not mix with people who came here for violence and destruction.”

CNN.com is on board with Bowser’s differing standards on protest. They decentralized Bowser in their Monday afternoon story, making it about Acting Defense Secretary Christopher Miller approving her request for Guard troops.  They also related that Bowser said  that election-fraud protests in November and December "resulted in a large influx of participants, violence and criminal activity."

Mr. Trump outranks Muriel Bowser insofar as "command" of the DC National Guard may be concerned.

I would like to see him order The Guard to stand down tomorrow, and let Ms. Bowser pound sand.
