Around 5000 guardsmen were forced to sleep in the garage with just one toilet.

According to reports, the soldiers do have hotel rooms in the city, but their strict shift pattern means they means returning there during rest breaks is out of the question.
Reports further indicate that it was Rep. Will Keating (D-MA) who complained to Capitol authorities that a Guardsmen wasn’t wearing a mask, and had said to Keating “I appreciate my freedom.”Â
Keating yesterday tweeted pictures with guardsmen, thanking them for their protection, yet it seems that his complaints effectively banished hundreds of the soldiers to sleeping rough.
Grateful for the opportunity today to thank some of the members of @TheNationsFirst deployed to DC from MA. Thank you to all the guardsmen and guardswomen (from all 54 guards) who have stepped away from family and work to protect the seat of our democracy. A job well done! pic.twitter.com/jEpd8SJ6NT

Meanwhile, Joe Biden and his family were not wearing masks, even after he signed an executive order mandating it.
Peter Doocy just asked Press Sec Jen Psaki why Joe Biden was maskless at the Lincoln memorial just hours after signing an executive order requiring masks on federal property.

Psaki hesitated, beat around the bush, then said "we have bigger issues to worry about."

“Yesterday dozens of senators and congressmen walked down our lines taking photos, shaking our hands and thanking us for our service. Within 24 hours, they had no further use for us and banished us to the corner of a parking garage. We feel incredibly betrayed,” one Guardsman told Politico.
Another guardsman told CNN “After everything went seamlessly, we were deemed useless and banished to a corner of a parking garage.”
Another told Task & Purpose “Leaving our families for the last two weeks to come down here. It’s certainly important and historic, but the day after inauguration you kick us literally to the curb? Come on, man.”
Other soldiers told The Washington Post “We are on top of each other all day, every day. We’ve given up,” and “Our guidance is if you’re not eating or drinking, you need to be wearing a mask. We’ve already had just some in my unit alone test positive for Covid, and they’re just keeping us packed together with caution tape in small areas. And that’s the only authorized rest area.”
I just visited the solders who have been abandoned & insulted by our leaders. I brought them pizza and told them that they can sleep in my office.

Unreal. I can’t believe that the same brave servicemembers we’ve been asking to protect our Capitol and our Constitution these last two weeks would be unceremoniously ordered to vacate the building. I am demanding answers ASAP. They can use my office. https://t.co/GlSSx9nqXo

This is outrageous, shameful, and incredibly disrespectful to the men and women keeping the U.S. Capitol safe and secure. We need it fixed and we need answers on how it happened. https://t.co/jDENVwcWQy

My office is free this week to any service members who’d like to use it for a break or take nap on the couch. We’ll stock up on snacks for you all too.
(We’re in the middle of moving offices and it’s a bit messy so don’t judge, but make yourself at home!) https://t.co/JyEvC4kg6o
If this is true, it's outrageous.
— Chuck Schumer (@SenSchumer) January 22, 2021
I will get to the bottom of this.https://t.co/CNBp055A91
If it’s true? So Schumer is suggesting the guard faked the footage?
After other members of Congress, both Republicans and Democrats, expressed outrage, the guardsmen were allowed back in the Capitol building at around midnight Thursday, and police apologised for banishing them.
Some Democrats just couldn’t help themselves though:
Kevin, American troops are in the Capitol because you, along with 138 other members of your caucus, helped to incite the violent insurrection on January 6th. https://t.co/G61bNlqS3x
— Mondaire Jones (@MondaireJones) January 22, 2021
Even though they were allowed back in the Capitol building, is it still OK that these troops are sleeping on the floor?
Am seeing a LOT of these pics, of National Guard troops having to sleep on the FLOOR of the Capitol in DC.

Really now, can't such a rich and prosperous nation be able to at least provide these soldiers cots? Maybe one of the billionaires can buy them all nice air mattresses. pic.twitter.com/DeD8hhd9Bc

Watch: MSNBC Compares GOP Congresswoman To Osama Bin Laden For Displaying Guns
“It communicates that they’re committed to, or at the very least open to the possibility of violent overthrow of the government”
Published

An MSNBC news host compared A Republican congresswoman to Osama Bin Laden Tuesday because she had guns on display at her home.
Chris Hayes also suggested that the display by Congresswoman Lauren Boebert was meant to convey the message that conservatives are willing resort to violence to instigate a coup in the US.
Watch:
“Do you notice something different with the bookshelves? Not just a stockpile of weapons sitting behind her, there is a deeper meaning to this image. An implicit threat, too,” Hayes proclaimed, showing an image of Boebert at home with two ARs, a shotgun, and a Glock behind her.
“Osama bin Laden, for one liked to pose in front of a bookshelf with a gun prominently displayed,” Hayes continued, adding “The Irish Republican Army would display guns in its propaganda posters and its murals. Cuban revolutionaries, they posed with guns all the time, too.”
Hayes stated that “A movement or faction that puts images of guns, the celebration of guns front and center in its political aesthetic, is a movement who’s engaging in something other than what we might call the normal rhetoric of elected democratic politics.”
“You can’t escape the meaning of it. It communicates that they’re committed to, or at the very least open to the possibility of violent overthrow of the government or the existing order,” Hayes frothed, adding that “in the Republican Party, it seems like it’s becoming common and unremarkable.”
The context of Boebert’s display is obvious given that she has positioned herself as a defender of gun rights.
The Congresswoman has hit out at those who believe they can ‘cherry pick’ rights from the Second Amendment. It is her number one cause.
To suggest that she is promoting violent revolution is not only grossly factually incorrect, but also deliberately and dangerously inflammatory, given that Antifa and various other violent leftist groups were identified as active participants in the Capitol riot in January.
What else can be expected from MSNBC though, other than literally repeating Democrat talking points:

It’s OK When They Do It: Democrats Putting Kids In ‘Cages’ Again
AOC says ‘it’s not OK’, but doesn’t fly to the border to scream through a chain link fence this time

Democrats have been blasted as hypocritical for reinstating the notorious ‘kids in cages’ detention policies at the border that they previously used to attack President Trump.
White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki was questioned Tuesday by Peter Doocy, who asked why Biden administration was reopening one of the very facilities Democrats previously labelled a ‘human rights abuse’.
Psaki argued that “This is not kids being kept in cages,” and claimed “this is a facility that was reopened that is going to follow the same standards as other [Department of Health and Human Services] facilities.”
Peter Doocy, one of the few remaining real journalists out there puts Jen Psaki in a tough spot by repeating back to her Kamala Harris's own words.

Psaki: “This is not kids being kept in cages."
These people have no shame.

Psaki continued “That’s never our intention – of replicating immigration policies of the past administration. But we are in a circumstance where we are not going to expel unaccompanied minors at the border.”
Psaki also argued that because “there is a pandemic going on,” the holding facilities must be used, rather than the Office of Refugee Resettlement.
In other words, ‘its OK when we do it’.

Democrat Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez commented on the development, but only mildly criticised Biden for the exact same thing she previously labelled “concentration camps” and created a staged ‘crying’ photo op over during Trump’s presidency.
Not okay is a far cry from her “concentration camp” claims.

As we have previously exposed, the ‘cages’ at the border were instituted by the Obama administration, and have been repeatedly mis-used by Democrats and their supporters to attack Trump, who actually signed an executive order to end the policy of separating kids at the border.

Congressmen: Swamp Pushing Fake QAnon Threat To Keep DC Under ‘Occupation’
“Trump isn’t getting reinstated until after he wins the 2024 election.”

Congressman Matt Gaetz (R-Florida) suggested Thursday that Capitol Police and Democrats are hyping up the bizarre online theories of QAnon as justification for keeping Washington DC under ‘occupation’.
Following a story in Newsweek that highlighted how some QAnon followers believe President Trump is to be ‘reinstalled’ on March 4th, Capitol authorities and Democrats used it as a reason to keep troops and razor wire fences in place.
During a Wednesday hearing, House Armed Services Committee Chairman Adam Smith said “Some of these people have figured out that apparently 75 years ago, the president used to be inaugurated on March 4. OK, now why that’s relevant, God knows, at any rate, now they are thinking maybe we should gather again and storm the Capitol on March 4. … That is circulating online.”
Rep. Gatez responded on Twitter:
Trump isn’t getting reinstated until after he wins the 2024 election.
— Matt Gaetz (@mattgaetz) February 19, 2021
Also, does this this strike anyone as possible threat construction to justify the ongoing occupation of Washington DC? https://t.co/aaiAVI0Jvx
Rep. Thomas Massie (R-Kentucky) responded to Gaetz, suggesting that ‘swamp’ creatures are using the ‘threat’ of conspiracists to take away freedoms:
De-occupy DC. Send our great soldiers home. There is no threat, but the swamp wants to project that image so they can pass new laws to steal your liberty. https://t.co/pW5010thqO
— Thomas Massie (@RepThomasMassie) February 19, 2021
The representatives’ comments come days after a leaked email suggested that there are plans to keep the National Guard in DC beyond the previously discussed deadline of March 12th, and throughout the Summer AND Fall.
AÂ report by FOX 5Â cited an internal email seen by reporters that reveals The National Security Council is asking the Department of Defense to engage Capitol Police on planning for post-March 12th support.
Assistant Secretary of Defense for Homeland Defense and Global Security Robert Salesses said Wednesday that the Capitol Police requested that 4,900 troops remain in DC through March 12.
