Hmm, so the felon in charge is making nat.guard into unhoused persons. smh.

A lot of these guys are being pulled from full time jobs and they don't get paid very much as a national guardsman anyway. This is horrible what they're doing to them too.

That could work to our advantage. Piss them off enough until they lay down arms and walk off the job.
Three tenets to live by:
- Don’t fuck with a (wo)man’s wallet
- Don’t fuck with a (wo)man’s family
- Don’t fuck with a (wo)man’s food
Edit: in my defense, I just finished watching David Tenant be the 10th Doctor, and the speeling is stuck in my head.

"tenets" ... I thought you were giving me housing advice.

They are not getting paid anything in this case. Usually they get paid by the state when doing work there, but since they were federalized they are under federal juridistion now and won't get paid by the state for deployment. And Trump isn't providing federal funds, hence them sleeping on the floor, having to pay for food themselves, using their own equipment.

These are mostly teenagers living on the edge anyway, or they wouldn't be in the National Guard. This is so not cool.
-
That’s simply not true. They get payed the same rate as an active duty soldier while federalized, based on their rank and service time. The sleeping on the floor of the ICE detention center is because there is not a space for them in the city.
