Million tax dollar litter pickers, sounds economical
Million tax dollar litter pickers, sounds economical
Totally.
Fucking clown show
Efficiency at its bests.
Is it just me that finds that image comical? Not only does it look like the soldier is trying to put himself in the bin bag, but he's wearing a high-vis vest over camouflage?!
He's in a black bag, where he belongs.
Hey, he did indicate that they would get the trash out of DC. People just didn’t realize he was being literal.
With all of the purported crime in DC, I would expect to see criminals picking up trash to pay restitution for crimes. This is wasteful, shameful, and embarrassing.
Speaks volumes.
Where did they Trump?
What a waste of training A critical role but wrong skill sets no?
For only 29 days, so they will not get a per diem to compensate for their time away from jobs.
The garbage is at the "Dirty House" where cheeto resides
Disgraceful and totally demeaning!! He’s making fun of the military!! 🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬👿👿👎👎
The littering in DC must be out of control.
It would have worked before if they had just brought a bigger truck
Well, he said he was going to "clean up the streets".
A real bite out of crime. Definitely worth soaring inflation (which is now patriotic according to MAGA) and a criminal administration devoid of diversity, ethics, and integrity.
A black friend of mine was all over DC, recently, visiting many of the ‘crime-infested’ black areas. No signs of Guard troops. They are all hanging near the Capital, as photo ops for corporate media. It’s all BS.
Trump feels safer surrounded by the Guard. 🙄 Such a power hungry coward.
The Guard aren't trained as investigators. They've taken over ceremonial public areas, leaving the DC cops with a lot of extra manpower to go after the crooks. & DC cops are doing it. Lots of arrests. Murder rate ZERO since the troops came in. Unlike their leadership, DC cops want to do their job.
I wasn’t aware there was that much crime by the Capital…
It would be great if they could take out the biggest piece of trash in DC!
He's that stuff in the bag.
Good for morale.
Perfect. Don't miss the dog shit, soldier.
Hi vis and combat fatigues sort of cancel each other out don't they 😂
Maybe, just maybe, this abject humiliation will germinate the formation of a strike force that mobilizes to neutralize Target Number One. #fucktrump
What you do see is $1 million a day expense to American tax payer.
No, you’re right, the back is way to small…
It is very peak military to make people wear their cammies and then make them wear a safety vest on top for visibility. 😂
He’s in the bag, that’s why you can’t see him.
DONALD TRUMP CALLS THE IMMIGRANTS CRIMINALS AND FELONS AND RAPISTS ! BUT DONALD TRUMP IS A CRIMINAL AND A FELON AND A RAPIST !
He’s in the bag
How degrading. Our military service people, in ALL branches, deserve respect. That's NOT THIS!
And it is only costing us 1.1 million (I believe) per day for this. Park rangers were let go. More sanitation workers would be far cheaper too!
well the Janitor's Union should send him a strongly worded letter
Where is Melania anyway?
Horrible use of our military but better than terrorizing our citizens.
Thank you for your service
They need to haul the human garbage out of the White House. #makeamericasaneagain
They’re looking in the wrong place. The garbage is in that white building behind them.
These troops left full-time (PAID) jobs in their home state and have lost that income? Did you know they signed-up for benefits (like VA home loans) that without those salaries are now at risk of going into foreclosure? As well as vehicles they can no longer pay? Because trump IS NOT PAYING THEM!!??
He's garbage, so perhaps he's in the bag.
I’m sure they’d rather be doing that than patrolling around with weapons targeting their fellow citizens.
Hard to argue with that.
Bag too small.
Look in the bag.
It's too late to say, "I didn't sign up for this shit." You're in the s**t already, and massa told you to pick up some trash. ? Now go do it!
He can't clean up his own garbage. So of course this is someone else's problem.
I think the fact that we have soldiers in cameo gear wearing bright orange visibility vests now is somehow a meta-commentary on the state of the US, isn't it?
There's some litter.. OO RAH!.... Bet your parents are so proud!
Surprised they have the time with all that rampant crime around.....
Taking men & women away from their families and civilian jobs, to perform community service in DC picking up garbage for a 🤡 ego! Not to mention there’s areas in their own state that resemble garbage trucks! 🤬
Is he already in the bag? 🤭😂😉
Ah yes, the police call. It's not what you think it means. Police call has a long & glorious tradition in the Army. Put us anywhere on the planet, and in ten seconds, we'll be out there doing a police call. It's just part of the DNA. We can't help ourselves! ref: www.thechivery.com/blogs/the-ch...
He's the garbage in the bag.
As if they could find a bag big enough for that stinky, slimy, orange pile of shit.
🤭
Perhaps he's in the bag... (One can wish, lol)
The poor excuse of a human has bone spurs.
Real efficient use of our National Guard! WTF America?
They’d need more than one person to pick HIM up.
If they're going to follow the orders of a dictator it is a relief that this is what they're left doing.
Tough on grime!
I haven't been to DC for a few years but from my memory, it's pretty clean. Also they're taking someone's job who is paid to clean up the mall.
The National Guardsman looking in the bag: “Is that YOU, Mr. President?”
If you encounter Federal troops in your city, please ask them to call the military's GI Rights helpline for resisting illegal orders. The troops are trained to ignore protesters, so maybe holding up a big sign would be better. 1-877-447-4487 girightshotline.org
Hmmmm.... I think it might be because they just picked him up yesterday...
Well, when they are picking up trash they can’t trample human rights, so it is a slight win.
Well he does have to get everything ready for his beautification plan, quote “ I’ll spend about aaaaaaaahhhh $2” to asphalt the roads of DC. Whelp you’re planning on slurry sealing the roads and think they’ll hold up… Ok *cackles at the stupidity*
He’s the ass part of what’s behind the bench
I wonder if they'll do their job as well as the US Army Corps of Engineers did when they tried to build that port in Gaza?
He’s in the bag. Soldier is asking for orders.
He has to humiliate them to satisfy his ego mania. They served while he dodged. My brother did tours in Vietnam and that was after his Amtrac hitting a mine and the Vietnamese launching a 250 lbs. bomb at the Marines with a catapult.
Shameful
👏👏👏 Good one! He's turning our troops into better paid janitors. How embarrassing and disrespectful.
While “police call” is on brand for the military, I can’t think of a more expensive method for area beautification.
that soldier does appear to be inspecting that trash bag for trash, maybe he suspects trump stumbled into it, or is just hiding there so no one sees the bruises on his hands
Is there crime in that garbage?
He’s hiding in the sack
I'm an Army vet, and I'm sick to my stomach seeing this gross misuse of our men and women in uniform! Imagine what our WWII veterans would think if they saw this, after the sacrifices they made for our country! How I wish the military could refuse these asinine orders from their Felon In Chief!😡
the military can and is actually REQUIRED to refuse unlawful orders like these.
Trump is fucking with the VA too. The voices of vets are among the most powerful we have. Please use yours.
They CAN refuse.
“suckers and loosers” 77 million of your fellow countrymen voted for him!!
Oh, they can. But that would require standing up to the clown.
#BoneSpurs #Felon #DraftDodging #Trump is taking over #UnionStation cause #USMilitary / #NationalGuard did not want to arrest #Veterans participating in a peaceful sit in protest there. Now they will be forced to. www.usatoday.com/story/news/p...
What are you talking about @georgetakei.bsky.social ? The National Guardsman is picking Trump up off the ground and putting him in the bag.
Could have been worse. He had several troops on their knees smoothing out a red carpet for Putin the other day.
It seems so last year www.dailyrecord.co.uk/lifestyle/tr...
As I predicted, keeping them busy as he runs around looking for phantom crimes. Enjoy your shiny toilets, Washington DC.
They probably got bored and took this initiative themselves.
At least they found something productive to do
Please someone photoshop a small bruised orange hand in one of the bags. Just to keep morale up
Correct me if I'm wrong, but I'm thinking these are the highest-paid trash collectors in the country!
It says garbage, not radioactive waste. They should at least put on hazmat suits before they go near him.
Maybe we should run this by DOGE, you know, to make sure the guvmint isn't wasting our tax dollars.
Lock if you know this but the USA spends 10’s of Houston dollars to train a soldier thru basic and ait just to have them become garbage men.
IDK became lock. Sorry
This is what he meant by beautifying the state?
They need to pick him up and pop him in that there black bag then surely?!
He wouldn't fit in one hefty.
Is he in the bag?
No because he is the trash.
He had his military out on their knees rolling out the red carpet for Putin. Yet MAGA ballwash him at every turn.
He is under the rock
George you kill me!!
Trump won’t allow any fraternizing with the enemy so we get this.
They have been standing around for a week with nothing to do so, they should clean their own garbage the fucking litterbugs.
And that bag isn't nearly big enough.
This is stuff grunts already get to do at their own duty stations every day breaking morning formation. Why are they doing it here? Extra "training"?
This is what Trump thinks about our military. They are picking up trash instead of using taxpayer funding for training and war readiness. Highest paid trash pickers in the entire world. What a disgrace.
just relase them back to there own states just because TRUMP THINK THEY ARE NEADDED HE IS WRONG AGAIN
If true, this might be the first things that im not mad about. We should have a civic service division in cities that perform cleanup, maintenance, etc.
Looks like waste, fraud and/or abuse of government funds.
Other states are paying for trash removal in DC
Even more reason to make DC a state!
Agreed but it will never happen - even without Trump.
He took them away from families and jobs for this BS!
Good grief, how much is this BS costing taxpayers!?!
If they're going to pick up garbage, they need to go to the WH
Same as the Capitol Building, he'll "meet them there".
That litter comes later
"If you've got time to be fascist, you've got time to pick up trash-ist."
He's already in the bag 🤣
They’ll be deployed to replace farm workers next
I see a floating vest and trash bag??
It is probably the only "policing" these will do.
Is Melania in the bag?
The national crime wave, the scourge of littering. I feel safer now! Don’t you?
Look inside the bag
The national guard will enjoy leaving garbage on his grave, along with other waste
He's the sack full of shit
Be all that you can be.
Treating our military like folks who get DUIs. Nice.
Well you see nazi trash should be taken out in a body bag
Here again, degradation of our U.S.Military, just to justify his stupidity. How many more demeaning insults do you need to realize you are nothing, WE as Americans are nothing in his eyes.
In full camo, in the heat of the summer, and with no pick sticks so they have to bend over to pick up every cigarette butt. He loves the troops!
He treats them so, so well!
I was thinking the same, plus the high visibility vests that make them look like they are doing mandated community service.
Hi viz vest over Cammo!! Genius
He’ll reward them by cutting more of their benefits.
He was right, now they are “suckers and loosers”.
To be fair, this is perfectly normal for the Army. When the Army talks about "Police Duty", they mean policing the grounds, i.e., picking up trash. If you are one of the lowest 3 ranks in any branch of the military you can expect to spend a fair amount of your time on police duty in camo in the heat
PFC - perfect for cleaning
To be fair, there’s no reason to deploy national guard soldiers from Ohio to be garbagemen in DC.
This 👆🏻
No good reason to deploy them from anywhere for anything other than actual national defense or real emergency (not a "because I said it is an emergency" farce). But we know the reason is just to try and curry favor with the Dear Leader, King Don Loon.
As an NCO, normal practice is to assign the troops who are the biggest screw-ups to go pick up trash. In my case, as a non-smoker, since most of the trash is butts, I always sent the smokers on my team to do it, figuring that the people who leave the butts should pick them up, not the non-smokers.
His right arm is in that bag….
😂😂😂
Omg!!!!!
Hahaha
Great, so when will they be picking up the orange felon and his sycophants?
But... the bone spurs
He wants them to have no doubt that he thinks they are "suckers and losers".
No bag big enough for the pedophile felon rapist traitor bigot dumbfuck.
You most certainly did. 🤣
If this is true, there is probably a lot of national guard reservist po'd
This just sucks! We know we do jobs, as Veterans, that are not pretty…I sure have done mine. But, seeing activation of the Guard, to be put to use in this way?? Really? I’ve said it before…I am so embarrassed by this guy.
So little trash they can’t fill one bag among all of them. Hello doge…
“Mommy where is Daddy?” “The President thought it was an emergency for him to leave us alone and without his regular paycheck so he could pick up trash in a far off city”
He's in the bag!
There’s a rotting pumpkin at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue that needs to be tossed into the trash.
How many states sent troops to Washington DC? This is horrible on so many levels. OTP vp
I hope they clean up all the trash in and round the White House. Perhaps they can find the constitution that this administration has thrown away.
"Protect your country they said, serve the people they said, save lives they said, prevent tyranny they said, where'd they say I'd be a f'in litter-picker??"
You gotta admit, with all of the trash that Trump brought into his cabinet, it probably will take the National Guard to clean it all up.
He had to arm the national guard to pickup rubbish
Hey, they might encounter a rabid squirrel or two, so they should be able to defend themselves.
Playing Where's Trumdo?
Isn’t this pathetic? I’m sure this is really boosting morale
Is that the ‘crime’ wave that Trump was so enraged about? Littering?
Seems that way!
Washington had a VERY high murder rate. None since Trump sent in the troops. What a crushing defeat for the Dems. They look so very weak and incompetent.
Aren't the troops all stationed in high end neighborhoods and tourist zones for photo ops?
Or just protecting the wealthy.
Mostly, yeah. Those places have to be guarded, but you don't need investigative expertise. The cops who used to be stationed there have been sent to Northeast DC and are rounding up criminals. I've been pleasantly surprised how much the DC rank and file cops are cooperating. Unlike the pols.
You don't even actually understand what's going on but okay, I'm sorry your history teacher failed you and your school didn't teach you what the act powers of the executive branch are supposed to be
Law enforcement is an executive function (that's why there's a Department of Justice). So is use of the military. There's no question of state vs federal law, the District is the creature of the federal govt and has no constitutional right to local jurisdiction.
before Trump DC crime was down 60%
Making themselves useful.
Follow the McDonald’s wrappers … you’ll find him.
They are going to find a lot of dead hookers!
They are not getting paid to deploy let alone pick up trash!🤦🏽♀️
Trump has early onset Rigamortus and his body doesn’t bend. There’s no way for him to pick up trash.
I thought Drumpf was good at picking trash...🤔
Good call...
What a waste of US dollars.
There's nothing else for them to do. At least make themselves useful.
I feel sorry for the National Guard. They are ordered to be in DC, but there is nothing they are supposed to do: protect our people from enemies. Trump regime is wasting our precious resources.
That's because he's in florida, golfing.
Such a waste of tax dollars, all so he can pretend like there's a crisis out of his own fear of accountability.
This use of Nat Guard for other than the emergency measures of crime substantiates the order false and should be grounds to reverse the order.
This is what having no respect for our military looks like. I feel for my brothers and sisters being used as pawns.
They could stop it any time they want. They like the racism.
They meaning the White House? Yes. They meaning the Guard? No. Sadly, being misused in this way isn’t illegal
Are you surprised? According to the orange felon they are suckers and loosers
Not surprised at all. #trumpepstein has never had any respect for anyone that gives to something bigger than themselves
Thanks for cracking me up George
At least they're being useful
Trash never takes itself out
“Be all you can be.”
At least that's doing something productive for society though forcing them to do so in the heat in full uniform isn't cool.
Thank you for your service. Now grab a trash bag and get to work.
They’d need a crane!
For what is being paid out for the mobilization, they need to work harder....
The most humiliating part is that they are wearing high-visibility vests over camos. Talk about competing objectives.
All kinds of “fun” regs in the military
The Army has been wearing camo-pattern working uniforms instead of the old Vietnam-era Fatigues since 1981. First with BDUs, then, in 2008, with the modern ACU. There is no other uniform to wear when doing general physical work in the Army. Don't pick on the Army for doing things the Army way.
Fair point.
I know some guards... This one in the photo is bored out of his mind...
RealNews: National Guardsmen were seen stooping to pick up trash in our nation's capital. When asked, they said the city was beautiful, and they hadn't seen any violent acts. Clearly, they're sold on how great Dear Leader has made America. They added, "Why are we here?" Just in, Jeffrey Epstein.
True, but it looks like they have one of the smaller pieces in the bag - Rubio perhaps? Or Buttlick's head and Witless's head straight after delivering that nauseating performance in the "cabinet meeting"
Hopefully he is in the bag
The white trash goes in a separate bin.
They are stopping all those litterbug criminals - LOL
There's loads in the white house.....
Is this what he meant when he said he was going to clean up DC?! Wow, tax dollars well spent :/
Snap.
Ha ha ha ha
Maybe he's hiding in the bag?
He’s waiting to get picked up.
Why the fuck is he wearing camouflage and a high visibility jacket? That's the absurdity of America.
Oh Snap!!
Since he seems to have nothing else to do as a president except invade the United States of America and hide the trump epstein files, he can make himself useful with his garbage truck. "Wait for me, guys!! Me Big Truck!!"
He’s in the bag
They'd need a forklift and a crane for that.
"What there's no criminals to beat to death?... Uh... Think of something" And then someone with an actual brain mentioned how Trump is a Garbage human and suddenly lightbulbs went off over greedy brows
That's all those southern retards are good for. PICK UP MY TRASH, BOY!!
