Nope…..they’re doing it to prevent forest fires… 🤷🏻‍♀️

The leaves haven’t begin their mass exodus yet. Wait until they fall and DJT has a fit at how sloppy the grounds and sidewalks look 😳🫤😵‍💫

Is it stick season?

I hope Trump will send them to the forests next to do all the raking needed to prevent forest fires!

That is to sensible for this administration as tRUMP is not a conservationist.

But, but... It was his idea...

other way around

I’m very suspicious that they are planning to do something with the public land.

A “gold” palace?

Yes. Washington, D.C. is a super safe and nice city. There isn’t enough “crime” to warrant the military occupation. It’s all a farce. It’s upsetting people around the world even need to question this.

Yes, come to Washington and watch our military in high vis gear rake the leaves in our parks and gardens.

Trump is 30 years too late. There were "bad parts" of the city back in the 80s and 90s, from what I hear. Those areas were completely gutted and rebuilt by developers (during GWB and Obama years). They built new government buildings, houses, commercial/shopping/leisure areas. Super safe and fun now.

Just like NYC in the 1980s vs now

The Regime and GOP is stuck in the 1980s in every way possible. Fitting that they want a 1984-style dystopia.

They want Germany in the 1930s.

I read that the number of national park service employees for that area went from 200 to 20. Sorry that I don’t have a solid reference.

Btw, Lady Bird Johnson selected her adopted hometown of Washington, D.C. as the pilot city to show the nation how Beautification could enhance the overall quality of life. The prominence of Washington, D.C. garnered national visibility to highlight the progress of the effort.

So the Trumps contributed to this with the Rose Garden paved with concrete?

Yep. Can't wait for the Rose Garden to be jackhammered back into existence again.

And all the tRUMPs and his administration jackhammered out of existence.

I read that, too.

Same here.

I was also thinking we had lost 90% of the NPS staff. It’s a lot of work for 20 staff to do considering how many visitors DC gets.

So this again

The amount of “fires” tRUMP has created in 8 months is astounding. His administration will need to create an entire division of “fire fighters” dedicated to pyromania.

Yep, it will take millions to put out his fires.

Not only the fires on the political front but the fires of hatred and propaganda tRUMP has indoctrinated into the MAGA cult with. America will need more than hose to change the mindset of the uneducated and gullible.

Yes, this was in the "If you got time to lean, you got time to clean" executive order.

They follow orders and do an excellent job of it too.
