Q drops 22 and 4414 are scarily accurate.
15000 NG are reported to be in DC and Trump has declared a national emergency in DC.
According to Q drop 22 they are working with the marines.
Would appreciate any more info, thanks!

As a former Marine infantryman I can tell you that 99% of the time we don’t even know what’s going on until the day of, sometimes even minutes before.
Even if a Marine unit is/will be pulled into this, your average grunt will not know until he needs to. The info would more than likely only be relayed to battalion level command (Bn CO and XO) or higher until it’s almost go time.
When I was in Iraq and it was my platoon’s turn to run convoys, all we knew was that we were going to run convoys. We got maybe an hours notice tops of a convoy, and then the briefing would take place maybe 10-15 minutes before we leave the wire. AND I should mention these were mostly non-combat convoys, most of the time they were for resupply or to escort someone between FOBs (didn’t even have to be a VIP).
If we were that serious about OpSec on a routine convoy, imagine the secrecy for an actual mission that we are all hoping would take place within the next week or so.
So we and the people involved of carrying the operation will be left in the dark until it's over, only people higher up the food chain know what is going on then.
Your typical Marine grunt will definitely NOT know anything until go time, and only then will they be given the information to carry out the mission.
I'd imagine it's something like my favorite movie The Crazies.
They ambush & capture that soldier / marine, hold him hostage in the barn for a few.
They start asking him questions; he swears to God he doesn't know anything. Said he was just called up to grab his gear, get in the convoy & go. Said he didn't even know what state he was in, until he saw the license plates on the cars.
YES it's a movie, YES it's totally fictional, but I imagine its like that; boots on the ground only need to know what they're doing when they arrive there.
No need to tell them days in advance, right?
Exactly! Loose lips sink ships. The less people who know, the less likely it is to leak.
