Trump's National Guard Troops Are 'Sitting Unused Without Orders' After Being Deployed for LA Protests, Gavin Newsom Reveals

The California governor said the troops had been left without food or water in federal buildings
Hundreds of National Guard troops deployed to Los Angeles under Donald Trump's orders are reportedly idle and without clear directives, California Gov. Gavin Newsom revealed, calling the situation a political stunt.
The controversy stems from Trump's decision to send 2,000 Guard troops to Los Angeles over the weekend in response to protests against aggressive ICE operations. On Monday, Newsom said he was informed another 2,000 were en route, even though most of the first wave had not been mobilized.
Only about 300 have been actively deployed, while the rest remained in federal buildings "without orders," according to Newsom. The governor said the troops had been left without food or water, and accused the White House of misusing military resources to bolster Trump's image.
Does any one know where they are being warehoused?
Seems like an opportunity for a geofenced, highly targeted ad campaign., informing service members that they have the right and obligation to resist illegal orders.
Also to have food and water outside for anyone inside who wants to defect.
Free donuts if you promise to not violate the USMJ/ Geneva Conventions (pinky swear required)
Nothing illegal about sitting around and doing nothing... or riot defense against a building though... Which is the only things I've seen thus far.
No but its an opportunity to maybe reach some service members and change some hearts and minds.
I mean, I literally started watching Democracy Now! when I was enlisted because I could download it as an MP3 before going underway.
You might be surprised how effective trying to change people can be.
That's not relevant. Service members have the right and obligation to resist illegal orders, and they should be reminded of that before those illegal orders are handed down.
Except that they have been illegally deployed.
Their federal mobilization was the illegal act.
There have been reports of them shooting protesters.
I read somewhere that they're mostly hanging out around federal buildings.
