People looking for a Close Encounter of any kind...
If the monument is unstaffed, who will ensure no after-hours visitors?
Find the responsible individual(s) and fire them.
Staff reductions will solve that.
Could be out of control satan worships
Why do I suspect that whoever made that call is punishing the public because of DOGE?
We used to call this “malicious compliance”.
Or am I out in left field?
Trumps fault. Sounds like a woke local area manager misusing their authority to cause pain and blame it on Trump...
We the people need to call and find out what the deal is. These are public lands and belong to us.
Wrong movie.......................
That was my thought, but I couldn’t recall the term until I saw your post.
Agreed, and Thanks!
Look for them to now find $ millions to put up barrriers all around a mountain, and then staff it with 100s of guards for the sole purpose of turning people away and telling them they are closed due budget cuts and staffing issues.
DC mall part 2.
That’s sounds exactly right.
They want to piss off people.
Remember, this is Cheney Country...................
Lol…”Close” as in nearby or “Close” as in “Sorry, we are closed. Come back tomorrow,”?
Nope. It is obviously malicious compliance.
Why do I suspect that whoever made that call is punishing the public because of DOGE?…. “malicious compliance”.

IMHO, BINGO!
Remember when Obama did it?
Obama shuts down WWII national memorial
“It’s called Washington Monument Syndrome.
That’s shorthand for the way federal agencies react to any threat of budget cuts or a government shutdown: by closing down the most popular public services.
No one has mastered this better than President Obama.
Which explains the dramatic — and wholly unnecessary — confrontation Tuesday at the World War II Memorial on the National Mall. Faced with signs saying the memorial was closed, war vets rightly pushed past makeshift gates and barricades to make their visit.
That there were barricades at all underscores the phony politics at work.”

Those who get there after closing can go to a restaurant down the road and order a large plate of mashed potatoes. LOL.
