The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

Where is that new EO where Trump makes a goon squad?

The EO was issued three weeks ago: personnel to be drawn from National Guard units, across the country. The troops are to be specially trained and equipped to suppress the civilian population, as "his nibs" sees fit.

(ii) The Secretary of Defense shall immediately begin ensuring that each State’s Army National Guard and Air National Guard are resourced, trained, organized, and available to assist Federal, State, and local law enforcement in quelling civil disturbances and ensuring the public safety and order whenever the circumstances necessitate, as appropriate under law. In coordination with the respective adjutants general, the Secretary of Defense shall designate an appropriate number of each State’s trained National Guard members to be reasonably available for rapid mobilization for such purposes. In addition, the Secretary of Defense shall ensure the availability of a standing National Guard quick reaction force that shall be resourced, trained, and available for rapid nationwide deployment.
