This may only be the start of Trump using the National Guard. According to the Washington Post, there is a Pentagon plan that would create a military ‘reaction force’ for civil unrest. In the case of massive protests, documents suggest a plan to have hundreds of National Guard troops ready at any given time. We'll share the details.

We welcome Everett Kelley to the show. He is the president of the American Federation of Government Employees (AFGE) - the largest union representing federal and D.C. government employees.
