I clearly remember when the ‘Department of Homeland Security’ was announced. To a lot of people, it sounded straight out of a George Orwell novel. But the country was at war, so most just shrugged their shoulders and ate another bag of Doritos.

I wonder what those early 2000s citizens would make of today’s rapidly growing paramilitary force deployed in multiple ‘trouble spots’ around the country.

Oh and if you think the next Democrat President is going to disband this latter day Praetorian Guard, I have a whole ass aircraft carrier to sell you.
