Head of D.C. National Guard to be removed from post in middle of inauguration

First Obama's appointments were told to leave their posts (not all, just the ones appointed by Obama,) and now this.

“The timing is extremely unusual,” Schwartz said in an interview Friday morning, confirming a memo announcing his ouster that was obtained by The Washington Post. During the inauguration, Schwartz will command not only members of the D.C. Guard but also 5,000 unarmed troops dispatched from across the country to help. He also will oversee military air support protecting Washington during the inauguration.

“My troops will be on the street,” said Schwartz, who turned 65 in October. “I’ll see them off, but I won’t be able to welcome them back to the armory.” He said he would “never plan to leave a mission in the middle of a battle.”

Unlike in the states, where the governor appoints the National Guard commander, in the District that duty falls to the president.

And who is to replace them? Why are the positions being left vacant, as appears to be the case?
 
Anyone connected to Obama is a potential threat. President Trump is wise not to trust them.

Good god these people will convince themselves of anything to support Saint Trump.

You're saying we can't trust our own troops because they served under Obama. Jesus Christ.

Do you feel any shame sliming some one who has done nothing wrong?

It makes sense though. DJT sees his own traitorous heart and assumes everybody else is a sell out.

No matter how paranoid that makes him appear?

Uh.....what?

Please go back and re-read what you just wrote and think about how it sounds.

It makes sense not to trust any of Obama's appointees. There's no telling what kind of sabotage they could inflict.

How does it sound? Oh, wait...is this where you make the thread about me?

Better safe than sorry. The crazy talk coming from the Lefties certainly warrants a measure of caution.

That is the most stupid, paranoid, ****ed up thing anyone has said on this board in months, and that takes some real doing.

As if you ever believed Obama could do any wrong. :lamo

Of course you would say that.

Now you're trying to make it about me after JUST complaining that someone would dare even indirectly talk about you :lamo

Go ahead, keep insinuating our troops are dishonorable for serving under Obama. Keep it up. It's entertaining.

Rather, about how absolutely off the wall paranoid y'all sound.

Should we get rid of everybody in the entire military? They are all "tied to Obama", after all. :roll:

Our service members are Obama appointees?

You're a part of the Obama cult.

Sorry, the 'crazy talk' bit is news to me. Need more info.

And the bit where we are all Americans, and the gentleman in question is serving his country - that doesn't matter to you? You just think Trump and dump rhyme for a good reason?
