The recent unlawful deployment of the National Guard in Washington, D.C. raises deep concerns about the overreach of federal power and the erosion of states' rights. As citizens, we must speak out against such actions that undermine the principles of democracy and the separation of powers enshrined in our Constitution. Reports indicate that the National Guard was mobilized without the consent or request of local authorities, which is a clear violation of established protocols and a dangerous precedent. We cannot allow such unilateral decisions to go unchallenged, as they threaten the delicate balance of power between the federal government and the states. It is imperative that we uphold the rule of law and prevent the normalization of such unconstitutional actions. We urge you to take a firm stance against this abuse of power and safeguard the democratic values upon which our nation was founded.
