The occupation of Washington, D.C. is not a metaphor. Over 800 National Guard troops, some armed, are now stationed in the nation’s capital under Trump’s orders, and the White House has hinted that blue states could be next in line. Rumors of armored vehicles headed for California and whispers about deployments in Portland and Chicago are spreading quickly. It feels like the line between democracy and authoritarianism is being tested in real time.
That is why we sat down with Malcolm Nance, former Navy intelligence officer, combat veteran, and bestselling author, who joined us live from the streets of D.C. to break down exactly what is happening. He explains what Americans should understand about the mission of these troops, how we can respond, and why the rise of meme warfare led by Gavin Newsom is more important than many realize. This episode is a mix of raw truth, strategy, and the kind of clarity you will not find anywhere else.
