Washington DC Mayor Bowser's second request for National Guard help with migrant 'crisis' denied by Pentagon
For the second time, the Pentagon denied a request on Monday by Washington, D.C., Mayor Muriel Bowser to activate the National Guard to assist with thousands of migrants who have been arriving in the nation's capital in recent months.
Bowser first asked for National Guard help last month, but it was rejected by the Pentagon on Aug. 4. She then sent another letter on Aug. 11, requesting that 150 National Guard troops be deployed to "help prevent a prolonged humanitarian crisis in our nation's capital resulting from the daily arrival of migrants."
Defense Department executive secretary Kelly Bulliner Holly wrote in a letter to Bowser on Monday that the D.C. National Guard is not trained to assist migrants and activation would lead to "diminished readiness" for the troops.

Toughen up Bowser. You only have a small fraction of what small towns in Texas are getting. So we have plenty of illegals to send you. There will be more being sent to your city for you to take care of. Do you have a guest room? You better make sure you have clean sheets on the bed.
