Newsweek: Exclusive: As Washington DC Faces Coronavirus Spike, Secret Military Task Force Prepares to Secure the Capital
District of Columbia Mayor Muriel Bowser yesterday ordered a one-month extension of the state of emergency, as cases in the region grow at a rapid pace. Federal officials in the nation's capital expect a New York-like epidemic in the District, Maryland and Virginia, one that could potentially cripple the government.
"No one wants to talk evacuation, especially when there's nowhere to go," says a senior military officer working on continuity of government planning; he requested anonymity because he is not authorized to speak on the record.
But a little-known military task force charged with evacuating Washington has already been activated, a task force charged with the most sensitive government mission of "securing" Washington in the face of attackers, foreign and domestic—and if necessary, moving White House and other key government offices to alternate locations.

Update: Pentagon Readying Force to Deploy in Streets of Washington, DC to Enforce Martial Law - Reports (Sputnik)
WNU Editor: No one should be surprised that options on what to do in a "worst case scenario" in Washington DC are being examined and discussed. Washington is after-all the seat of the U.S. Federal government, and a New York city style epidemic in Washington DC will cripple the government. As for imposing martial law as the above post from Sputnik is saying, I doubt it, but I do see the relocation of key White House and other key government offices to alternate locations if that does happen. We are truly in uncharted territory right now.

These units will be activated for exercises or for emergencies. As bad as it is I don't think they'd be activated for Covid 19. I suspect that there is more to this. This special force could be activated & deployed as a precaution if the USG has info that terrorists with a very very big bomb or bio/chem weapon are about to strike or China or another state may make a big military move. 🖖🧐
The USG might have info that Democrats might deploy OWS or Antifa and increase the violence level.
My money is on a meteor strike, or a coup, or a Chinese invasion, or a Russian invasion like in Red Dawn, or Sean Connery is defecting with a submarine.🖖😲
Do Russians still defect?
It is a very informative and useful post thanks it is good material to read this post increases my knowledge. Bernie Sanders News
