I spent time on this because this is the AP story on this, meaning it likely is appearing in 100+ Sunday newspapers this morning. This is how tens of thousands of people are learning “what happened” here when it comes to these three governors’ actions.
The @apnews.com story on the past 24 hours feels like malpractice to me.

what donald trump wants more than anything is video of american soldiers gunning down american citizens
This could end up very badly given what we know of Rules on Use of Force (RUF) for Guard in DC. And very different training regimens compared to local police.
Wall Street Journal reporting:
"National Guard troops deployed to Washington, D.C. are preparing to carry weapons in the coming days."
Exclusive | National Guard Soldiers Prepare to Carry Weapons in Washington, D.C.

U.S. foreign policy is being run by the dumbest motherfuckers alive.
Documents with sensitive details about the meeting between President Trump and Russian President Putin were left behind on a public hotel printer.

According to Loomer via the NYT, Rubio took this call from her last night — right after he accompanied Trump to the summit with Putin.
