Debunking Media Bias: How Trump's National Guard Deployment Was Misrepresented
In this episode, we dissect how the media portrayed President Trump's deployment of the National Guard to curb crime in Washington D.C. Contrary to reports painting it as militarization and scare tactics, the presence of the Guard significantly reduced violent crime. They did it in Washington DC and they can do it in Chicago and Baltimore, despite the claims of Maryland Governor Wes Moore and Illinois Governor JB Pritzker.
The episode also highlights hypocrisy around the National Guard's use, pointing out that Democrats only object when Republicans are in power, yet demanded their deployment on January 6.
Guardsmen have historically protected citizens' rights in various critical situations like the Little Rock Nine. The Democrats were on the wrong side than as they are now. They concentrate on accusations of "abuse of power", "occupation", "militarization" and depict the assistance of the guard as a "threat"
Learn the facts behind the headlines and understand the real implications of deploying the National Guard for domestic safety.
