AOC Offers Her Office to National Guard, After Members Were Sent to Cold Parking Garage

Though the reason behind the Capitol Police ordering the Guard to move out Thursday is unclear, it sure seems the reasoning is that they didn't want the building to look like an armed camp. The move drew condemnation by lawmakers on both sides of the aisle, and some of the guard members said they felt betrayed.

The good news -- AOC's tweet and the outrage of other members apparently forced an about face ... all of the service members were allowed back inside the building for the night. A National Guard spokesperson shed some light on what went down Thursday, saying ..."As Congress is in session and increased foot traffic and business is being conducted, Capitol Police asked the troops to move their rest area. They were temporarily relocated to the Thurgood Marshall Judicial Center garage with heat and restroom facilities."

Well, there was just one restroom with 2 stalls available to the 5,000 troops who were told to leave the Capitol ... and temperatures dipped into the low 40s by nightfall.And, if you want to know what it might be like to be exposed to the elements in D.C. ... well, just look at frigid

They were on break.

Marines everywhere hearing about these unfortunate Guardsmen being sent to sleep in a secure parking garage in the austere conditions of Washington D.C....

Put them in hotels or apartment. Your office is also bad for them

Who gave the order should be looked into ... transparency is needed with our career politicians!

Oh now that it can get her votes she offers. But when these guys were being kicked out where the fuck were any of congress of the executive branch. NO FUCKING WHERE.

Way to go Biden!

I love this cute new trend congress is doing where all these representatives say 'you can use my office' - I just wish someone would actually take them up on it 😂 how hollow can these 'showings of support' be? 'Got you a cookie and a slice of pizza too' 🙄👍🏻

Shes so American 🙄

The only good thing she’s done in the few years she’s been there.

Trump said they're welcome to the whole Trump Hotel there.

They was preparing them for war against the Americans

Whore

She is the best!

Human offering other humans support or help regardless of titles or status, common sense stuff. Sadly it makes news if this happens. Hoping for better days

Thank you for being so considerate of these brave men & women. They deserve our heartfelt appreciation.

Bullshit

National Guard Returns To Endless Sleep Under Mount Rushmore Until Nation Calls Upon Them AgainKEYSTONE, SD—Growing increasingly still as the haze of patriotism lulled them into an enchanted rest, the National Guard reportedly returned to their endless sleep underneath Mount Rushmore Tuesday until the nation was ready to call upon them again. “The National Guard issued a solemn salute to the flag before re-entering the sulfurous cavern to rest,” said Pentagon sources, recalling that the service members climbed inside George Washington’s carved rock nose to enter the monument. “Marching in lockstep, standing shoulder to shoulder, the National Guard stopped all at once and entered a deep slumber. Their uniforms, weapons, and bodies effortlessly camouflaging with the granite memorial.” At press time, the National Guard had already been awakened to quell protests in Portland.\n That's pretty badass ngl 1:00 AM · 27 янв. 2021 г.· ТВОЯ ЦЕЛЬ ПРИЗЫВА ТАКОВА , ЧТО ПОЗВАТЬ ТЕБЯ МОЖЕТ ТОЛЬКО МОЯ БАБУШКА
