“For more than a month, the National Guards have been pulled away from their families, communities and citizens to act as a political pawn for the President in Los Angeles. While about 2,000 of them are starting to demobilize, the remaining guardmers continue to continue to hopes without a mission, without a mission and without helping their communities.”
