Wes Moore: Deployment of National Guard to DC ‘deeply disrespectful’ to guard members

Governor Wes Moore criticizes President Trump's deployment as ineffective and unconstitutional, highlighting a 20% homicide reduction in Maryland during his tenure.

  • On Sunday, Maryland Governor Wes Moore opposed the National Guard deployment during a Face the Nation interview as President Donald Trump called up nearly 2300 National Guardsmen and federal agents to patrol Washington, D.C.
  • Citing budget cuts to federal bureaus, Moore said President Donald Trump exploits a broken immigration system and reduces funding for the FBI, ATF, and violence intervention groups.
  • During the Sunday interview, Moore described using the National Guard for street patrols as unsustainable and unconstitutional, stating he will not authorize the Maryland National Guard, while Baltimore Mayor Brandon Scott prefers federal agents from FBI, DEA, and ATF over troops.
  • The debate is heating up in Washington over the federal call-up as Maryland Governor Wes Moore emphasized public safety and urged tangible actions the President of the United States could fund.
  • One example Moore raised was the case of Kilmar Abrego Garcia, released from pretrial detention on Friday and ordered to report to U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement for deportation to Uganda, urging courts, not the president, decide such cases.
