Imagine signing up to serve your country and you end up having to a defend a bunch of communists and traitors from unarmed boomers.

And all for what? To fight off an invisible enemy of peaceful patriots?

It’s for OPTICS.

What a waste of resources.

But hey if you don’t make new wars they gotta spend the DOD bucks somehow I guess.

Not these soldiers fault. But we The People are paying out the ass in salary and benefits for all these guys to sleep on the ground for I’m guessing a few weeks in a well lit building with zero threats around. We have real issues that these guys could be working on.

In the military, you sleep while you can. You never know what is going to come up next.

If you arent sleeping, you are fortifying the position. If you arent doing either of those, you are cleaning and maintaining your weapon or drilling to keep fit. Hopefully they have some anti-personnel mines, razor wire, and sand-bagged heavy weapon emplacements with nice firing lines just out of shot.

Congress is about to learn what this whole 'war' thing is, and it doesn't actually mean sending young people off to die overseas while getting nice bags of cash from defense contractors for approving the latest spending boondoggle.

If they're trained to be shooting at badguys within ten seconds, and they're all at the Capitol, this whole Congress mess should sort itself out before recess this morning.

Normal behavior to sleep anywhere at any time. As a former Infantry, I can confirm.

Media is getting public used to seeing massive troops on the streets to desensitize them. Next thing we know political opponents will be whisked away in the dead of night and media will not report.

Spez: I’m deleting this comment, because I’d misheard something in the DOJ presser that took place yesterday. I listened to it again today to be able to get more context about what I thought I had heard and discovered I was incorrect. Honest mistake, but nonetheless, I apologize.

Their fault for selling their soul just to get yelled at and commanded to do dumb stuff. They naively think they are signing up to protect America from their enemies yet are too dumb to realize their enemies are the ones going to be their bosses.
