We were all in agreeance that 25,000 troops was an insane amount. I had a post last week breaking it down just how many that is.
Now, the news is reporting that 7,000 are staying. A lot of people are saying "oh well damn it must not be happening cause most are going home."
That is EXACTLY what they want EVERYONE to think. There is zero need for 25k troops....other than to make 7,000 look like a tiny, and ACCEPTED number.
7,000 troops a shitload of military. You are still talking about almost a full division. Keep in mind, Afghanistan was invaded with 1,200 troops and only have 4,500 spread throughout the whole country there currently.
7,000 troops by itself would have caused a shitstorm....but 7,000 compared to 25,000 looks dismal and gives the impression that everyone is going home.
4D chess strikes again.
The troops sworn in as marshals are most likely still there. Flynn asked for 30 days on Dec 31. That gives us till the end of January. Many things are happening with the EOs Biden signed. Hopefully it's all optics.! With mask mandate, resisting pharmaceutical price drop plan, pipeline haulted and Ice stopping their work on illegal immigrants, 5 more days of turmoil could be enough to get the ball rolling. People are already outraged on social media with the reversing course of Trump policies.
Biden EOs got blocked by the courts.
Sauce?
