United States Army Military District of Washington (MDW) is one of nineteen major commands of the United States Army. Its headquarters are located at Fort Lesley J. McNair in Washington, D.C.

“The United States Army Military District of Washington (MDW) is one of nineteen major commands of the United States Army. Its headquarters are located at Fort Lesley J. McNair in Washington, D.C. The missions of the units in the Military District of Washington include ceremonial tasks as well as a combat role in the defense of the National Capital Region.” From a vet

That's what they are called, not the name of the city. "...from the military district of Washington".

From their website:

JOINT FORCE HEADQUARTERS - NATIONAL CAPITAL REGION U.S. ARMY MILITARY DISTRICT OF WASHINGTON

Edit: not trying to burst hopes, but don't think that had any meaning by stating they are from the Military District of Washington since that's part of their name.

FYI: That’s the name of the military command in DC, since 1921. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States_Army_Military_District_of_Washington

If one can trust the wiki

I heard about this the other night (I only watched the game) and no one posted a clip, so TY very much for this! I wanted to hear what was said.

While I'm NOT saying it's 100% proof we never hear DC referred to as "The Military District of Washington." IF it has been I ask someone to provide sauce, otherwise I believe this confirms that the military IS in control.

You take this with everything else we've seen -- the thousands of troops, the walls, the sketchy inaug, the non-21 gun salute, the troops disrespecting Pedo Joe . . . it all starts to add up.
