Chump/DOGE fired 180 of 200 DC Park Service workers this year [View all]

Just so he could claim DC is dirty and weedy as well as a hellhole of street violence.

Despite his own DOJ saying violent crime in DC is down to a 30 year low.

Despite the 200 DC workers (masons, plumbers, landscapers, sanitation workers, etc.) doing excellent work, keeping the place well groomed and admired by millions of visitors from around the world.

With only 20 workers left after the Musk cuts, I'm sure some areas needed some help.

But to send in the National Guard troops from Louisiana, Ohio, etc. to LAY MULCH AND PICK UP TRASH?

If this is the way forward where he/they can just get away with this shit, well...

If there's a god, just nuke us all now.
