🚨BREAKING: Retired Major General Randy Manner just went MEGA VIRAL after TORCHING Trump’s illegal National Guard deployments across U.S. cities — calling them a waste of taxpayer money, a threat to the Constitution, and a danger to America’s combat readiness! 🪖⚖️🔥

💬 “I served over 35 YEARS in the Army & Guard. Four generations of my family fought for this country. And everything I’ve learned tells me what Trump is doing is WRONG.”

👉 In a scathing op-ed, the 2nd highest official at the National Guard Bureau revealed:

✅ Trump’s deployments have no legal or mission justification
✅ They’re harming our troops, their families, and their employers
✅ They are reducing combat readiness and turning soldiers into political pawns
✅ This is NOT what our Guard is for — “soldiers are not trained for policing!”

🔊 “We are NOT here to ‘spread mulch’ or ‘entertain tourists’ in DC. These deployments are ABSURD and dangerous.”

Manner goes on to explain that Trump is politicizing the military, violating our values, and risking decades of trust built between Americans and their soldiers. 🇺🇸

📉 The real reason? It’s part of Trump’s sick dream to normalize military occupation in our streets — to pave the way for the authoritarian, MAGA dictatorship he’s been fantasizing about for years. And our troops HATE IT.

💣 “Deploying our military to intimidate civilians is a direct threat to the First Amendment. It must stop.”

This isn’t coming from a Democrat. This is from a decorated military leader who spent 3+ decades defending your freedom. If HE is this alarmed, we all should be.

📲 LIKE & SHARE if you believe in defending our troops, not abusing them.
📢 TAG a friend who still thinks Trump “respects the military.”
🔥 COMMENT: Do you support banning political deployments of the Guard?
