Original Note:
Trump’s acting Secretary of Defense issued a memo on January 4th, 2021 stating that all orders for the Guard must be routed through him and that only he (and obviously CIC Trump) had authority to summon the Guard. Refer to page 113 of this DOD report (pg 115 of the pdf): https://media.defense.gov/2021/Nov/19/2002896088/-1/-1/1/DODIG-2022-039%20V2%20508.PDF
