A congresswoman questioned where the money would come from to cover deployments within the limited budget. The speaker responded by recalling 2020 when Minnesota Governor Walz abandoned a police precinct and allowed it to be burned, leading to days of chaos in Minneapolis. Because of this, the National Guard mobilization was too late. The speaker stated that President Trump recognized that such situations are bad for citizens. The speaker believes ICE has the right to safely conduct operations in any state, especially after 21,000,000 illegals crossed the border under the previous administration. The congresswoman reiterated her budget question. The speaker stated that the National Guard and Marines were deployed to protect ICE in Los Angeles so they can enforce immigration law, unlike what Governor Walz did in 2020.

"We'll bring in the military if it's needed, by the way." "We're gonna have National Guard, but Pete Hegseth will tell you about it." "We will bring in the military if needed." "They'll immediately begin massive enforcement operations targeting known gangs, drug dealers, and criminal networks to get them the hell off the street, maybe get them out of the country because a lot of them came into our country illegally." "They shouldn't have been allowed in." "They come from Venezuela." "They come all over the world." "We're gonna get them the hell out." "They won't be here long." "But some of these people, a lot of them are homegrown criminals." "These are bad people." "These are rough people." "And this is just a list of some of the people that were given to me today that were criminals removed from the DC streets this weekend." "They were rough, rough and tough, but we're rougher and tougher."

US Park Police, the oldest federal police force formed in 1791 by none other than than president George Washington, protect sacred monuments: the National Mall, Washington Monument, Jefferson Memorial, Lincoln Memorial, Statue Of Liberty, plus sites in the Presidio and Golden Gate area. They handle tens of millions of visitors from around the world. The circles and the Triangle Parks that are spread throughout DC are actually federal park property, and these became littered with homeless camps under the Biden administration. Since President Trump's March 27 executive order making DC safe and beautiful again, the US Park Police have removed over 70 homeless camps, and over 80 attacks against our history with graffiti on our monuments. They patrol in vehicles, on foot, or on horseback around the National Mall. The rank and file is happy to be enforcing the law again, and they're excited about the announcement you're making today.

United States marines and national guardsmen are helping to create a peaceful environment for ICE and border patrol, who were being attacked with rocks and needed reinforcements, so that raids and deportations can continue. The president understands the legal authority that he invoked. The president wants to see an end to the chaos and the violence. He doesn't want to see law enforcement officers being attacked. He wants to see peace. He wants law abiding Californians to be able to bring their kids to school, to be able to go to work without seeing this violence in the streets. That's what the president's hoping for, and that's why he's taken this action.

The speaker claims the military is controversial because it is over the target and that President Trump inherited a demoralized military that couldn't recruit. Since Trump's election, there has been a recruiting renaissance across all branches, with waiting lists for police and fire departments as well. Retention is up because service members now have a real commander in chief. The military is reinforcing standards, welcoming back those forced out by COVID mandates, and removing wokeness, DEI, and trans policies. Fort Benning and Fort Bragg are back to normal. The speaker states they are rebuilding the military, reassuring allies, and deterring enemies. They found nearly $6 billion in savings to reinvest, including $50 billion from the Biden administration's climate-focused initiatives. The speaker says they aim to wisely spend the first trillion-dollar budget on warfighters. They claim to have achieved 100% operational control of the border, with 11,000 troops now able to detain illegals and hand them over to CBP. NATO allies are stepping up, the Houthis are feeling American power, and they are deterring communist China. The speaker believes they are making the military great again due to President Trump's leadership.

There are two types of forces: domestic soil and the National Guard. The president deploys the National Guard in DC, but governors deploy them in other states unless the president invokes the Insurrectionary Act. The speaker suggests a campaign urging Democratic governors to commit to deploying the National Guard only to protect people from white supremacists and rogue police, not against the people. The speaker, who has been anti-military, believes this is preferable to civilians facing armed conflict. Drawing on a past success in the 80s where a governor refused to send the National Guard to Central America, the speaker suggests engaging with National Guard members, who are often working-class, and believes they may be less entrenched than the police. The goal is to consider how the National Guard might be deployed on behalf of the people instead of against them.

Hey, it's Chip Roy from Texas, and I'm with Lieutenant Chris Olivarez from the Texas Department of Public Safety. I'm grateful to Governor Abbott and DPS for securing the Texas border when the federal government wouldn't, not because Border Patrol and ICE didn't want to, but because they weren't allowed to. I'm glad to have Chris here with me, we'll be with my colleagues in the House, listening to President Trump. There's a new confidence that we can secure the border. I want to thank Congressman Roy for your support. It's an honor to represent the Texas Department of Public Safety and Texas. We appreciate your support for Governor Abbott's Operation Lone Star Mission. We'll continue to secure the border in Texas. God bless Texas and America.

There are over 7,000 deployed troops in Washington DC, barricading the capital. Soldiers are stationed on every corner, and the military presence is evident. The speaker expresses surprise and asks for opinions on the situation. They remark on the large number of troops and emphasize that they are the "good guys."

Felicia Ashley has given us some good reporting about their role in Washington DC since August because it has been, contentious to some. There are plenty of people who did not like the National Guard being here in the city. We don't know if that's the case as why this person acted the way they did talking about the gunman. But nonetheless, as Michelle, as you've pointed out, this is a struggle that's been going on in cities across the country right now where there is a lot of push back from some others welcoming them with open arms, but about sending the National Guard as the president would like to multiple cities to try and what he says, cut down on crime. I was in Portland, Oregon just earlier this month reporting on on some of the pushback there as members didn't like the idea. Members of the political parties there didn't like the idea of the National Guard coming in. But Memphis, Chicago, there are plenty of other places where there's a a genuine debate, and you can only imagine that that debate is gonna get much stronger and intensify over the next few days. And and then the the the quick reaction from Pete Hegseth over at the Pentagon, the secretary of war, to say, okay. We're sending 500 more National Guard into Washington DC in light of what just happened. Shows you that there certainly won't be a scaling back. Yeah, and there's a question of whether that will agitate more. Incidents like this. We don't know. But that is something that we will be following in the days ahead. But right now, top of mind is this investigation. With this case playing out in Downtown DC. Our Christian Flores standing by. Christian, you have new information for us. I'll keep it on. You know, just wanna kind of take you back to what we're looking at right now. I mean, again, it's just an absolutely packed scene still several hours later. I mean, look, we've been talking about it pretty much throughout the entire afternoon. We're so close to the White House. You're used to seeing just more amped up police presence and security presence around this area. But, of course, you have a shooting and not just a shooting, but a shooting targeting two National Guard troops, and it's just gonna be amped up to eleven. I mean, earlier this afternoon, we spoke with someone who saw the aftermath. He didn't see the shooting, but he saw the aftermath. All of the first responders rushed to the scene. People, you know, trying to get some help to the scene. And he said he hasn't seen a police presence like this since, really, 09:11. And he's been here for a number of decades. Now, obviously, those are gonna be very, very different levels of police presence.

Back in Washington this weekend, the speaker gives a personal thanks to president Trump for making Washington DC safe again with bringing in the National Guard and helping the police here in Washington clean up the streets, asserting a sense of restored safety. "If MTG can walk safely in Washington, DC, that means you can too." They point to the Washington Memorial behind me and to Jefferson, saying they are out here where our beautiful historic cherry trees are in Washington enjoying this gorgeous day. He also mentions enjoying the day as he tours the city. The speaker emphasizes gratitude once more, concluding, "thank you President Trump."

DC will not remain a sanctuary city actively shielding criminal aliens. Under Donald Trump's directive, DC will become safe again, and it will become clean again. You have no cash bail, as you said. You have juveniles running rampant over this city, and you have a metro police department. We've made a 156 arrests. 27 firearms have been seized. Child porn pornographic material has been seized. Over 200 fentanyl pills taken off the street. A homicide suspect with a firearm, and we are going to protect DC and make it safe again. Citizens are coming out of their homes, and they're thanking them for keeping them safe and making the streets safe again. An elderly woman walks up to law enforcement and thanks them so she can go to the market again. We're gonna work hand in hand with state, federal, local officers, and we're gonna make DC safe again.

"We've already sued New York." "We've already sued Illinois." "If they don't comply, we're going to sue them." "We're gonna take away your federal funding." "You're going to have to comply." "We're gonna send in law enforcement." "Our National Guard are ready to go." "They have been working hand in hand with our park services here in DC." "The metro police are loving it." "They can actually now arrest people." "They have federal officers with them." "They're buddied up, and they are making arrests, keeping Americans safe and keeping our capital safe." "All of our museums are free." "Families deserve to be able to go there." "They feel safe now to walk their own neighborhood where they live because of what our great great men and women in law enforcement are doing at the directive of the president."

The secretary was asked to justify using the military for civilian law enforcement in Los Angeles. The secretary stated every American deserves to live in a safe community, and ICE agents need to be able to do their job of deporting illegal criminals. He said President Trump believes in law and order and has the authority to mobilize the National Guard or active duty troops to protect federal agents. When asked which authority justifies the use, the secretary stated it sounds like all three, citing millions of illegals waving flags from foreign countries and assaulting officers. He said the governor of California has failed to protect his people, along with the mayor of Los Angeles, so President Trump will protect the agents. When told orders for these purposes should be issued through governors, the secretary stated President Trump has all the authorities necessary.

The speaker claims the Biden administration allowed people from prisons, jails, and mental institutions worldwide to enter the U.S. They allege these individuals included gang leaders and drug lords who were expelled from their home countries and sent to the U.S. border. The speaker applauds the troops for protecting federal property and personnel, and for upholding federal law. They state the troops are protecting ICE agents and the police in Los Angeles. The speaker says the head of the Los Angeles police acknowledged needing the help provided.

United States marines and national guardsmen are helping to create a peaceful environment for ICE and border patrol, who were being attacked with rocks and needed reinforcements, so that raids and deportations can continue. The president understands the legal authority that he invoked. The president wants to see an end to the chaos and the violence. He doesn't want to see law enforcement officers being attacked. He wants to see peace. He wants law abiding Californians to be able to bring their kids to school, to be able to go to work without seeing this violence in the streets. That's what the president's hoping for, and that's why he's taken this action.

I really am honored that the National Guard has done such an incredible job working with the police. And we haven't had to bring in the regular military, which we're willing to do. After we do this, we'll go to another location, and we'll make it safe also. We're gonna make our country very safe. Chicago is a mess. You have an incompetent mayor, grossly incompetent. And we'll straighten that one out probably next. And it won't even be tough. And the people in Chicago, mister vice president, are screaming for us to come. They are. They're wearing red hats just like this one. African American ladies, beautiful ladies are saying, please, president Trump, come to Chicago. Please. I did great with the black vote, as you know, and they want something to happen. So I think Chicago will be our next, and then we'll help with New York.

This is Liberation Day in DC, and we're gonna take our capital back. We're taking it back under the authorities vested in me as the president of The United States. I'm officially invoking section seven forty of the District Of Columbia Home Rule Act. You know what that is? And placing the DC Metropolitan Police Department under direct federal control, and you'll be meeting the people that will be directly involved with that. Very good people, but they're tough and they know what's happening. They've done it before.

My administration surge surge 500 federal agents into the district, including from the FBI, ATF, DEA, Park Police, the US Marshals Service, the Secret Service, and the Department of Homeland Security. You know, a lot of nations, they don't have anything like that. They got some some police, and they're rough police. They don't have a DEA, ATF, FBI, Park Police, US Marshal Service, Secret Service, Department of Homeland Security. They got some police, but they're rough police, and they do their job. They don't have crime. We're not gonna have crime either. They made dozens of arrests, and that's what that's what starts to happen. Again, cashless bail. Watch what we do with that. Today, we're

I requested the National Guard urgently to come to Capitol Hill. I spoke with Pentagon officials to get approval. During the call, I emphasized the urgency of the situation, but was told they didn't like the optics of having the National Guard present.

The speaker identifies the city as one of labor, businesses, faith, believers, and dreamers, then reminds the audience why they are gathered. The speaker states that last Thursday, ICE entered the city and provoked it by chasing people through Home Depots and car washes. They claim there was an effort to federalize the National Guard, and that the National Guard was complimented in the White House for keeping peace in the city Saturday night.

There are over 7,000 deployed troops in Washington DC, barricading the area. Soldiers can be seen on every corner, and the military presence is significant. The speaker expresses surprise and asks for viewers' thoughts. They emphasize the large number of troops and comment that they are the "good guys."

Speaker 0: He explains that he wanted to enforce laws with ICE agents and federal law enforcement but couldn't, so he needed to call the National Guard. The question is what "regular forces" means, since the statute says the president has to be unable to enforce the law with regular forces, and the Supreme Court had not decided that before yesterday. The Supreme Court now says "regular forces" means you have to try with the regular armed forces first before you can bring out the National Guard. The unintended consequence could be that the president is going to have to call the eighty second airborne or the marines or the hundred and first airborne division, as, for example, President Eisenhower did after Brown v. Board of Education in the South to enforce desegregation. The president might have to do that first in order to protect those federal buildings and ICE agents, and then if they fail, he can then call out the National Guard. Speaker 1: J. B. Pritzker, the governor in the state of Illinois, is saying this is a big win for Illinois and American democracy, an important step in curbing the Trump administration's consistent abuse of power and slowing Trump’s march toward authoritarianism. The claim is political. The president has obviously tried to work within the framework of the law as his legal team sees it. What happens from here? In fifteen seconds or so, what happens from here? I’m not surprised by Pritzker’s response, and I guess you aren’t either. Speaker 0: He notes that Trump will now have the right to go to the Supreme Court on the full merits. This is just preliminary, and he may be able to get the court, the full court, to reverse this preliminary decision. More worrisome, the Supreme Court is essentially inviting President Trump to send regular armed troops and deploy those to Chicago and Los Angeles before he can send the National Guard. A governor would rather have National Guard troops than the eighty second Airborne and the Marine Corps patrolling the streets of Chicago. Speaker 1: Yeah. Especially when you think...

Support will be provided at the southern border through various military statuses, including state active duty, Title 32, or Title 10. This marks a shift in how operations are typically conducted. The Department of Defense is committed to protecting the territorial integrity of the United States, involving reservists, the National Guard, and active duty personnel, all in accordance with the Constitution and directives from the commander in chief. Discussions about invoking the Insurrection Act will be determined by the White House. We are prepared to take necessary actions to secure the southern border.

The National Guard and Marines are being stationed at federal buildings across the country where riots are taking place, not deployed against US citizens. They remain on federal property to provide security for those buildings. If people do not storm the federal building or attack the National Guard, they will not be attacked. As an investigative journalist who covers protests, the speaker says they stood two inches from the National Guard, who did nothing. The National Guard is not allowed to operate in a law enforcement capacity because the cities will not allow it.

General William Walker, the commanding general of the District of Columbia National Guard, assures that they have everything they need to counter the current threat level. The National Guard's role is to assist law enforcement, particularly in civil disturbance situations. They serve as a layered defense alongside the Secret Service, Capitol Police, Metropolitan Police Department, and United States Park Police to ensure a peaceful transfer of power. The National Guard members are screened for insider threats through a credentialing process involving background checks and multiple screenings. General Walker expresses confidence in their ability to handle the situation.
