The deployment of the National Guard and emergency declarations are merely logistical preparations for traffic management during the eclipse.

So the Oklahoma National Guard has been called in to assist with massive crowds that are expected to arrive in the state for the eclipse. Right. That's true, but it also, you know, it's what happens in states where there was a total eclipse in 2017. It's a huge logistical issue, even if all you consider is the massive influx of traffic. Even if you just consider traffic control on the highways and shit, you need... Wait until they see a really packed Sooners game. Then the eclipse is going to be nothing compared to that. So Alex has another headline there, quote, Solar Eclipse Summit ties state-local plans together. This is from a Texas organization called the Capital Area Council of Governments, and it has to do with a meeting that they had in February about planning to accommodate approximately 720,000 additional people visiting the state, particularly in smaller communities, dealing with issues like how to, "keep traffic moving along smaller highways." Sure. None of this shit is suspicious unless you want it to be.
