October 16, 2025 | Chaos and Disorder Prohibited by National Guard

The party of chaos and disorder is furious that the National Guard has been restoring peace to US cities. Every metric has shown crime significantly plummeting in every area where the National Guard has been stationed. American citizens are safe; the military is protecting those abiding by the law. Yet, those like Obama are spinning the story to portray a ruthless dictator unleashing the military against their own people.
Obama declared that it is “inherently corrupting” for a president to use military “against their own people.” The former president took a shot at Governor Abbott of Texas, claiming that he could have sent the National Guard to protect Dallas but it would have been “boggling to me how Fox News would have responded.” “We don’t want masked folks with rifles and machine guns patrolling our streets,” Obama added later. “We want cops on the beat who know the neighborhood and the kids around, and that’s how we keep the peace around here.”
The National Guard is not arresting or threatening law-abiding citizens. Countless videos are circulating the internet where people are thanking the Trump Administration for controlling crime, stating that they have not felt safe to walk around their own neighborhoods in years.
The data speaks for itself. In Washington, D.C., violent crime dropped by nearly 50% during the three weeks that the National Guard was deployed in August of this year. Burglaries dropped by 48%, homicides fell by 57%, and auto thefts declined by 36%. Memphis and Los Angeles are also seeing a notable downtick in crime since the deployment of the National Guard.
Why is this controversial? The Cloward-Piven Strategy requires chaos and disorder.
Obama deported more people than Donald Trump did and that was before the borders entirely vanished. The Democrats are not concerned about freedoms—they’re concerned about losing control over an unstable population. Obama claims that the police were sufficient when his political party championed defunding the police and started a race war over a career criminal who overdosed during an arrest. The American people are grateful to have their cities restored. There is something outright sinister about “folks” like Obama who want to see the nation fall.
