2) Guard officers like me have both a Federal and State commission. President can call the Guard to federal service for war, (Guard bore a lot of the war burden since 2001), and other areas, but not for riots. Governors can. — PolitiTweet.org

1) Sadly, the Guard issue needs a thread: The Guard started as a bunch of farmers who won our independence from the British. The Guard is under the command of each governor, in the current moment many Democratic govs have called up their Guard. Not partisan. — PolitiTweet.org

3) POTUS is the Commander of DC guard since 1803, and acts as Gov of DC in that respect, and can use them as any Gov would. Yes the Guard surrounded the Lincoln Memorial, and it remained free of vandalism, unlike the WW2 memorial a few days prior. Wish they had been there. — PolitiTweet.org
