People keep talking about “Federalizing the National Guard” and now you’ve got other States pledging their NG to Texas in defiance of the Supreme Court (see image).

So is this what CW2 looks like?

P.S. I’m a Brit

    This is exactly why DeSantis wants to revive the Florida State Guard.

    Biden should ignore Abbott right until the point he signs an order to interfere with Federal agents on duty. Then it’s a conspiracy & the Insurrection Act can be brought into play to clean house.

      Florida State Guard

      I had to search for that and it sounds kinda bad for states to have their own armies. I mean it’s practically the definition of raising an army in opposition to the Federal government. Looking at Wikipedia it was first activated in WWII to make up for the national guard going to war.

      That bit makes sense.

      But you’re not at war and you just reactivated it in 2020. Why? Why would Florida need it’s own army? That’d be like the Wales FM creating it’s own guard. By it’s nature it’s in direct opposition to the national (British) military. There’s no other way of looking at it.

      That feels like a major thing. Am I taking crazy pills - why is no one screaming? This is bad!!
