Well, here's their response to the folks threatening to storm the White House.

quote:

A federal law enforcement source tells NBC NEWS that beginning Tuesday, crews will build a “non-scalable” fence to secure the White House complex, Ellipse and Lafayette Square.

250 National Guardsmen have been put on standby, reporting to Metro Police officials.




The article goes on to talk about how businesses and even government buildings are currently being boarded up anticipating riots.

I wish it wouldn't come to this, but since it is I say let's fricking do it. Let's get this over with.

NBC Affiliate out of Australia

PS,

Why does Australia do a better job of covering current events in the US than we do?

Australia really does have good US coverage. They’re MAGA over there too

Do these deranged people really think they can attack the White House and not get shot? When push comes to shove, these people aren't bout that action.

A machine gun nest at each corner of the white house should do it

If unauthorized people enter White House grounds, and don't comply with verbal command to stop...they WILL be shot.

They must be worried about all those right wing militias, right?

Need to use deadly force. If motherfrickers are already at the stage of thinking that they have a right to storm the white house and try to kill a sitting president...just because their side lost.. then our government needs to stop coddling them.

So they'll be useless.

How about having 250 Marines inside the gates under the control of the Marshals/SS?

Just how damn embarrassing is it to us as a country to have to do this? Jeez.

Many areas in downtown DC are boarded up and residents are stocking up to be ready to shelter in place. I have an idea on what they should be stocking up on.......

It's incredibly sad that the capital of the greatest nation in the world has come to this thanks to the mobs of hoodlums who have never done anything useful for even a day in their lives!

Wouldn’t be surprised If they have a few rapid reaction forces on standby inside the White House that no one know about.

Hopefully the National Guardsmen will be issued live ammo and given the green light. The left wing agitators are nothing but terrorists and should be treated as such. Shot on sight

I dont see anyone being shot unless shots come from the fence scalers first. Gas and Long Range Acoustic Device (LRAD) will be the first line of defense and if that doesnt turn them back, then all bets are off and it wont turn out good for these idiots. America will have little sympathy for them.

The WH knows Trump will win and knows what the left is planning on the backend. Do they REALLY think Trump will be in there? Idiots.

You have to think that if they are saying publicly that only 250 troops and a fence are what the added protections are, they must be fairly confident in the protection mechanisms already in place at the White House.

This would be concerning to me if I planned to try to breach the house. But I'm thinking rationally and my mind is not clouded by hate.
