 Washington mayor requests troops to aid with migrant arrivals from Texas and Arizona

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - Washington Mayor Muriel Bowser has requested the deployment of military troops to assist with migrants arriving on buses sent by the Texas and Arizona state governments, according to letters sent by her office to U.S. military and White House officials.

Bowser, a Democrat, has clamored in recent weeks for federal funds to provide shelter and services to migrants arriving on buses from the two Republican-led states, which sought to make a political statement by sending border crossers to Washington.

"Our ability to assist people in need at this scale is very limited," Bowser said in a letter to White House officials, adding that non-profit organizations welcoming migrants in Washington are "overwhelmed and underfunded."

Texas Governor Greg Abbott, a Republican running for reelection in November midterm elections, blames U.S. President Joe Biden's immigration policies for record numbers of migrant arrests at the border with Mexico.

She needs to suck it up!  What does she think the rest of the country, especially TX, AZ and FL have been dealing with?

They need to continue to send as many ILLEGALS as they can to DC.  100,000 ILLEGALS need to be sent to start things off -- and they are far from that number.

The proper use of "troops" would be at the border itself, rifles raised and ready (with rubber bullets in the mags), to prevent anyone from crossing in the first place.

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

Generally, National Guard troops are used in these situations as a "backup force" to free the Police from desk work in order to spend more time in the field.

I'll bet Bowser wants to use them to muck out latrines for the illegals or some other humiliating shit jobs.  They will NOT be there to keep order, but instead will be prevented from doing so.
