grounds to a nearby parking garage, which sparked fierce outrage on both sides of the aisle, appeared to be a mistake made lower in the chain of command rather than an order from"on high."
Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer speaks alongside Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi during a joint press conference at the U.S. Capitol on November 12, 2020 in Washington, DC. Schumer said the order booting the National Guard's rest area out of the Capitol on Thursday did not come from "on high."
Pittman added:"It was brought to our attention early today that facility management with the Thurgood Marshall Judicial Office Building reached out directly to the National Guard to offer use of its facilities." But Pittman's statement did not accept blame for any uniformed officers making any orders, as Inhofe said. And an earlier Capitol Police statement did not acknowledge that the troops had been moved at all.
Sununu said the soldiers"should be graciously praised, not subject to substandard conditions." But the outrage at the soldiers being sent to rest in a garage was hardly partisan.
This is on Pelosi and Schumer. Verifiable evidence of their disregard and disrespect for our military.
I am sorry to all the American troops that they put in the garage with no heat no way to use the bathroom make them sleep on the cold ass floor I apologize to all the American troops Nancy Pelosi Chuck Schumer Joe Biden Carmella Harris that’s her that’s what they of are Troops

What! Didn't he say that anyone without authority could give orders to the National Guard?

Several governors order National Guard troops out of D.C.At least four governors say they’re ordering National Guard troops out of Washington, D.C., after thousands of Guardsmen were sent from the U.S. Capitol outdoors or to parking garages earlier this week I would do the same thing if I was one of the governors. It is wretched to treat our National Guard troops like that. The original orders were just thru January 20 weren't they? So they not know what the military does? This is another time politicians need to go see the conditions the troops serve in when deployed.

Impeachment trial to keep National Guard troops at CapitolA contingency force of National Guard troops will help protect the Capitol from what was described as “impeachment security concerns.' This is a direct result of the ex-president's lies, and the sycophants who enabled him by either repeating his lies or simply staying silent. We have armed military controlling our nation's capitol because the GOP tried to give up on democracy. This is the biggest con job in the history of the states 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 Antifa coming to to town? I dont think they work being fulltime protestors so i doubt they can afford the bus fair from portland or seattle...
