Interesting that they are calling it a 'migrant crisis' now.  How about a full blown ILLEGAL IMMIGRATION CRISIS???

Washington DC Mayor Bowser's second request for National Guard help with migrant 'crisis' denied by Pentagon

For the second time, the Pentagon denied a request on Monday by Washington DC Mayor Muriel Bowser to activate the National Guard to assist with thousands of migrants who have been arriving in the nation's capital in recent months.

Bowser first asked for National Guard help last month, but it was rejected by the Pentagon on Aug. 4. She then sent another letter on Aug. 11, requesting that 150 National Guard troops be deployed to "help prevent a prolonged humanitarian crisis in our nation's capital resulting from the daily arrival of migrants."

Defense Department executive secretary Kelly Bulliner Holly wrote in a letter to Bowser on Monday that the DC National Guard is not trained to assist migrants and activation would lead to "diminished readiness" for the troops.

"The DCNG has no specific experience in or training for this kind of mission or unique skills for providing facility management, feeding, sanitation, or ground support," Holly wrote in the letter, which was reviewed by Fox News.

"Approval of this request would also result in a substantial readiness impact to the DCNG," Holly continued. "Devoting the personnel or the facility for such an extended mission would force the cancellation or disruption of military training." .............

Her 'request' is a scam in itself.

They have several Catholic Charities affiliated groups that are already in the D.C. Region to settle them in Maryland and Northern Virginia, as they have been doing for decades now.
