St Paul (KROC AM News) - A senior officer of the Minnesota National Guard has a new assignment - working with a prestigious US Army unit.
The MNG says Army Maj. Gen. Johanna Clyborne has been selected to serve as Deputy Commanding General (Army National Guard), at the Army Cyber Center of Excellence.
Clyborne’s new role is a two-year additional duty, meaning she will maintain her membership and current duty assignments and responsibilities as the Assistant Adjutant General in the Minnesota National Guard while serving in a dual-hatted capacity.
Governors answered U.S. defense officials’ calls for more troops to safeguard Washington, even as concerns grow about the risk of violent protests in their own states.

ST. PAUL, Minn. (FOX 9) - A group rallying at the Minnesota State Capitol in St. Paul on Saturday was met with a large show of force by law enforcement agencies, amid safety concerns across the country.
The extra law enforcement didn’t stop the small group of pro-Trump supporters from what has become a weekly gathering of speeches and prayer, dubbed Freedom Fest.
Even as Washington begins to resemble an armed camp, with more than 25,000 Guard Troops due in the city by early next week, concerns about violence at state capitals has grown.
