JOHN —there’s something we need you to take very seriously.

We've told you all about Donald Trump and Pete Hegseth turning the Department of Defense into the Department of Forever War. Whether it is an illegal war against Venezuela, or his desire to send Troops back into Afghanistan, this is hardly a “peace” president.

Now, Trump has his eyes on another war — at home.

He just federalized the Texas State Guard and, and he’s trying to deploy them to Illinois and Oregon. Saying it like that might not sound so bad, but what if we put it this way: Donald Trump wants to invade Democratic states he doesn’t like with Guard Troops from Republican states he does like.

This is the President of the United States militarizing American cities against their will for absolutely no reason, other than as a show of force. It is illegal. It is outrageous. It’s against everything this country stands for. And it would put American Soldiers in a place they should never be — facing off against American citizens.

And while Donald Trump is trying everything in his power to antagonize people into conflict, Troops don’t want to be used for political fights.

It's not why these men and women joined the Guard. They signed up to serve, to help out during disasters, and to defend American citizens with their lives, if necessary. But Trump and Pete Hegseth are doing everything they can to destroy the Military and remake it in their image. It’s absolutely sick.

We are not going to sit by and let them do this to our brothers and sisters.
