The Pentagon has ordered the National Guard in every state to develop a “quick reaction force” of troops trained to deal with civil disturbances.
These forces must be ready by January 1st, according to documents.
LiveNOW’s Mike Pache spoke with military policy analyst Christopher Neiweem about the orders and the Trump Administration’s crime crackdown across U.S. cities.
The National Guard has always had troops that were on standby to deploy at a moment’s notice, but they traditionally have been used to quickly react to natural disasters and did not receive special training, according to the Associated Press.
