    Both National Guards had been sworn in just 24 hours prior.

    Edit: Looks like it was corrected.

    “During the press conference on Thursday, Pirro said the two Guardsmen were sworn in 24 hours prior to being shot. A joint task force spokesperson later said the two Guard members were deputized less than 24 hours before the shooting to “maintain their status to conduct presence patrols,” according to a joint task force spokesperson.”

      Gonna need a source because that’s definitely not how it normally works. If true that’s wild.

      Edit: a cursory Google says they were in DC since August, so this is most likely bullshit. Also to reiterate, that’s not how any of that works.
