Sarah Beckstrom was a National Guard member from Summersville, West Virginia. She died from bullet wounds while deployed to Washington, D.C.
“She swore an oath to defend the Constitution.
Donald Trump violated it to put her there.
She should never have been deployed at all. A federal judge ruled last week that Trump’s activation of the National Guard in Washington, DC is illegal—a direct violation of federal statute. The mission had no constitutional basis, no lawful purpose, no justification except one man’s need for the optics of soldiers in the capital.”
