Brian Cate's Twitter has an interesting take:

Theory is Trump & Barr Rope 'a Doped 'em talking up military units, but are actually sending in swat team units from federal agencies.

Bottom line, he says, is that Fed agencies have jurisdiction over incidences of federal crimes, so Govs and Mayors have no say.

Seems sound and a legit take, to me.

Pelosi probably realizing she got took again. Still trying to figure out the plan, looks like, so that would be good news.

Cates thinks Esper's BS was a setup, too. Kept the shitheads focused on mil moving in so the swat teams could be set up unhindered. Maybe same for Mattis, too?
