    A National Guard official acknowledged the documents are authentic but downplayed their sensitivity, saying the assessments are intended for internal use and were inadvertently emailed to The Post last week. The official spoke on the condition of anonymity, citing an unspecified policy. It is unclear how many people mistakenly received the documents.

    I’m starting to genuinely wonder if “oops, added a journalist” is the new form of leaking…

    Because it just actually happening this much is fucking insane

    “Trending videos show residents reacting with alarm and indignation,” a summary from Friday said. “One segment features a local [resident] describing the Guard’s presence as leveraging fear, not security — highlighting widespread discomfort with what many perceive as a show of force.”

    “Gosh, we blindly followed a fascist’s orders and now people don’t trust us anymore for some reason. Nobody could have predicted this!” /s

      A US Air Force recruiter emailed me this morning

      I cussed her out, told her to grow a fucking back bone.

      Used to never do that to military, now I don’t respect them.

    They may feel bad but they’ll follow orders. Pardon me if I don’t care about their feelings.

    Yeah, imagine signing up for the National Guard and then having these child-fucking Confederates use you as a way of threatening normal Americans.

    Any normal human being would feel a great deal of shame.
