Thousands of National Guardsmen were forced to vacate congressional grounds on Thursday and have been photographed having to sleep in parking garages while temperatures in the nation’s capital were set to dip down to near-freezing temperatures.
The photos of the living conditions that the National Guardsmen were forced to endure come after Democrats took complete control of the federal government this week following Joe Biden being sworn in as the nation’s 46th president.
“Yesterday dozens of senators and congressmen walked down our lines taking photos, shaking our hands and thanking us for our service,” a National Guardsmen told Politico. “Within 24 hours, they had no further use for us and banished us to the corner of a parking garage. We feel incredibly betrayed.”
“All National Guard troops were told to vacate the Capitol and nearby congressional buildings on Thursday, and to set up mobile command centers outside or in nearby hotels, another Guardsman confirmed,” Politico reported. “They were told to take their rest breaks during their 12-hour shifts outside and in parking garages, the person said.”
“Speaker Pelosi personally met with the Secretary of the Army to demand 14,000 National Guard troops be deployed to the Capitol,” a source familiar with the security discussions at the Capitol told The Daily Wire in a statement. “But there was no logistical plan provided by the Speaker’s office on where the service members would sleep.”

MILITARY SOURCE IN DC: “For the last week my battalion has been sleeping on the floor in the Senate cafeteria. Today the Senate kicked us out & moved us to a cold parking garage. 5000 soldiers. 1 power outlet. One bathroom. This is how Joe Biden’s America treats solders.”

The House was told to go home.
Next week’s schedule is cancelled.
Biden made it clear he can run the country with his pen.
Congress is no longer necessary.

They were used by the dems for “optics”. Once he was sworn in they were discarded like one of Dementia Joe's soiled diapers.
Just made some changes..
As usual with the Dems in charge the military is back to:
The old saying is Soldiers and Dogs keep off the grass, implies that civilians only want the military around when it serves their immediate needs, otherwise don’t both the civilians in their daily lives
Will any news network report it?
They were talking about this on Washington DC's WMAL
Demorats hate the military.
Dear Guardsmen....you were nothing but PROPS! Democrats care NOTHING about you except to USE YOU!
Elections have consequences, even stolen ones.
What? I guess you missed the little problem with the election in Georgia?
Someone gave the order. It shouldn't be that hard to find out who it was.
Don’t worry troops. It won’t be long before the DemonRats will be sending you to the warm Middle East for their latest war,
Another thing I have noticed is on TV, when a Christian TV program is coming on WGN TV station out of Chicago. They used to make this normal announcement before the program with words like: "The following program DOES NOT NECESSIARILY reflect the thoughts and opinions of this station." OR something like that. BUT NOW, they are clearly stating: "THE FOLLOWING PROGRAM DOES NOT REFLECT THE OPINIONS OF THIS STATION." They have clearly changed the announcement to CLEARLY stated their ANTI GOD opinions. IT IS STARTING at that level already.
Seriously. They chose to go and help install a communist government and illegal chief executive. They stood there and let it happen so they can GFT. No man can force to to do anything you don’t want to.
“President Trump should offer to put up the National Guardsmen at a Trump hotel.”
Great idea!
