Only Trunt or his acting SecofDef could order the National Guard, and Miller issued this stand down order two days before the failed coup attempt.
It is pretty clearly disallowing any interference in his coup attempt.

We might not be able to watch “A Charlie Brown Christmas” around a TV together like we once used to, but we can still listen to its classic soundtrack—that rare artistic artifact that transcends what it was made to accompany, writes Anna Holmes:
The Sound of a 'Charlie Brown' Christmas

It feels like I've run out of things to say about the Democrats.
When we're almost a full year into this and they're still voting for Trump's nominees, I'm not sure how you can make the case that the party is salvageable.

People keep wondering why they're going after Venezuela. It's because they want to do regime change and control its oil, then use a big tract of land there to keep a tax free "network state" that looks like Dubai but operates like Rhodesia. They are saying this out loud! Believe them!
