WASHINGTON — The National Park Service is shutting down public access to the Washington Monument until Jan. 24, citing threats surrounding Joe Biden’s inauguration.
The agency said Monday that it was implementing the temporary closure “in response to credible threats to visitors and park resources.”
Meanwhile, the National Guard says it will increase troops in DC to at least 10,000 by Saturday to boost security ahead of inauguration.
Park officials say that groups involved in last week’s riot at the U.S. Capitol are continuing to “threaten to disrupt” Biden’s inauguration on Jan. 20. As a result, officials are shutting down tours at the Washington Monument beginning Monday, running through Jan. 24.

You win the best FReeper post of the day. And believe me I have read far too many FReeper posts today so do not take this award lightly!!!!
Uncle Ho Jo doesn’t like being stood up in the erectile status.
Well...
Everyone knows that the Washington Monument is actually a rocket ship that Trump will board under the protection of the National Guard, while Barr, Durham, Huber, and Sessions work with Wray and the FBI to have Gina Haspel (AKA RoboCop) arrest Joe Biden on the dias, release the Kraken, and publish the pedophilia files of every sort of leftist in Congress. Everyone will be sent to FEMA camps, with the exception of the worst of the worst — like Brennan, Clapper, Comey, and McCabe — who will be sent to Gitmo. Hillary will be paraded in irons to her prison. Donald Trump, under the protection of the Space Force, will return from the safety of the International Space Station and all will be right with the world.
...at least that’s what Q told me.
I think it’s all for show. They want it to look like they’re responding to the massive threat that our mere existence represents...at any moment, a horde might sweep in from fly over country and attack the virtual podium.
In other words, it makes us look like a threat so grave they need thousands of troops. Oh, and repressive laws, unlawful search and seizure, preventive detentions, whatever is necessary.
Virtue,,......
SIGNALING!!!!!!
The optics will be quite hilarious. 10,000 NG, no spectators.
would love to see all Patriots either stay in their home towns and do massive car parades like was done before the election as a goodbye and Thank you OR the President announce he will be leaving via car and we line up along the roads as a goodbye...SCREW BIDEN! None of us will be watching...
This is all to cover up for the steal. If the inauguration we t ahead like normal, one of two things would happen, all showing the world the fraud.
1. The crowd would be huge and they would all be Trump supporters.
Or
2. Only Biden supporters and the crowd would be non existent.
I’m praying that Trump drops the hammer on all of the commies and remains the legitimate President of the United States. The troops are to put a stop to the riots of anitfa and blm vermin that will surely ensue in the larger cities.
Biden’s not in charge yet.
Who summoned these troops?
10,000 would hardly fill a thimble on the DC Mall. Here are the recent crowd size estimates from Politifact...
Barack Obama, 2013: 1 million
Barack Obama, 2009: 1.8 million (generally considered a record for people on the National Mall)
George W. Bush, 2005: 400,000
George W. Bush, 2001: 300,000
Bill Clinton, 1997: 250,000
Bill Clinton, 1993: 800,000
George H.W. Bush, 1989: 300,000
Ronald Reagan, 1985: 140,000 tickets sold, but record cold moved the swearing-in ceremony indoors
Ronald Reagan, 1981: 10,000, according to the New York Times. This was the first year the ceremony was performed on the west side of the Capitol.
Since they will be armed for the Biden inauguration, will they be given orders to “shoot to kill” any pro President Trump demonstrators? On the other hand, Will the troops have their rifles but no firing pins and ammo like when President Clintoon required of the US troops he visited in Bosnia in 1996. (I think the the only casualty of that trip was Ron Brown.)
Biden is putting on a Nuremberg rally.
...and I just learned recently that the Vice President can call for removing the President under the 25th Amendment.
This follows what "Big Guy" Buy-den said about giving up his Presidency should the Vice President object...
Interesting idea. A lot of troops on hand that will still be under the command of the current President. Just saying, if he wanted to declare martial law and halt all proceedings, take suspected conspirators into custody...
They are cking Natl Guard troops social media so only Biden supporters will be there.

Department of Defense says they will review troops deployed to Biden inauguration to ensure they don’t have sympathies to domestic terrorists.
