Democrats Scramble to Save Face After National Guard ‘Banished’ to Parking Garage Following Biden Inauguration

Several lawmakers expressed outrage following a report that National Guard troops had been “banished” to a parking garage after serving to defend against potential threats at the inauguration of President Biden.

Politico reported Thursday night that U.S. Capitol Police officials had the Guard troops removed from the facilities “sending them outdoors or to nearby parking garages after two weeks pulling security duty” following the Capitol riots in early January.

The report notes that outdoor temperatures in the area fell into the 40s, while conditions inside the parking garage for one unit of 5,000 consisted of just one electrical outlet and one bathroom.

One Guardsman conveyed his feelings about the situation to Politico.

“Yesterday dozens of senators and congressmen walked down our lines taking photos, shaking our hands and thanking us for our service,” he said.

“Within 24 hours, they had no further use for us and banished us to the corner of a parking garage,” the Guardsman added. “We feel incredibly betrayed.”

...

The initial move to force them into a garage reflected poorly on Democrats considering the troops were used to help defend the inauguration of one of their own party members.

Showing up at an inaugural in bargain basement attire---
happens when you lost but got in anyway thanks to The Big Fix..

These Biden people have no self-awareness----and so little respect for themselves.
Ashley Biden should never wear pants with those bow-legs of hers.
The thrift store print dress defies description. And those shoes.....she looks like a double amputee.
And who is that dork on the right with the unkempt hairdo?

Sen. Roy Blunt, R-Mo., told Fox News that his office is investigating what kind
of coronavirus precautions Guardsmen took..

Well, la-de-friggin'-da. His office is investigating. That means diddly-squat.
Nothing will come of it.

Such 'investigations', whether by Republican or Democrat, have the results published,
if at all, on page 13, in small font, to say they were inconclusive.

Nothing to worry about here comrade Democrats. The media has come to your rescue as they are only reporting the heartwarming story of Jill bringing cookies to the troops.

Treat the left like they treated President D. J. Trump’s ‘grab em’.....Keep it going and going and going. In fact, keep every stupid thing they do or say ‘going and going’.
