Did Obama halt National Guard in Ferguson?
Joe Kovacs
In the aftermath of Monday night’s rioting and looting in Ferguson, Missouri, there’s a question as to why the National Guard was not deployed to quell the violence, and some are speculating President Obama and Attorney General Eric Holder may have encouraged the lack of action.
“Somebody wanted this to happen,” declared radio host Rush Limbaugh on his national broadcast Wednesday.
“The ongoing theory is that the White House or Washington – the DOJ, Eric Holder – called the governor of Missouri, Jay Nixon, and told him not to deploy the Guard. Because it looks like they were ready to go. They had been called up and they were placed on ready status. And then they were not used. And the feeling is that the order came from some high authority in Washington not to deploy them. I don’t know why.
“It is a mystery as to why. Speculate is about all we can do. Why would the DOJ, why would Holder, why would Obama not want the Guard in position to stop some of this? Based on everything we know now, why would that be preferred?”
