In a show of solidarity and support today, Vice President JD Vance, Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth and White House Deputy Chief of Staff Stephen Miller personally visited our National Guard troops in D.C. The men brought hamburgers to the guardsmen to lift their spirits and remind them of just how important their work in securing the capital is to the American people. Vance quickly highlighted how the gesture pales in comparison to what they truly deserve:
We wanted to bring you guys some burgers. We appreciate everything that you’re doing. So, you know, you guys bust your ass all day, and we give you a hamburger. Not a fair trade, but we’re grateful for everything you guys do.
Since President Trump sent the National Guard into the District, ridiculous protests have been ongoing. The presence of the guardsmen has already dropped crime throughout the city, with robberies and carjackings declining significantly. One can only assume that the liberal protestors would rather have homeless encampments and drugs in the street? Seems like a losing issue, but it’s hard when many on the left make their living by becoming paid protestors.
VP Vance had a special message for the protesters, specifically:
It’s bizarre that we have a bunch of old, primarily white people out there protesting the policies that keep people safe when they’ve never felt danger in their entire lives.
Not to be outdone, White House Deputy Chief of Staff and Homeland Security Advisor Stephen Miller went scorched earth on the protestors:
The voices that you hear out there, those crazy communists, they have no roots, no connection to this city, no families they’re raising here. They have no jobs in this city. But they’re the ones advocating for the 1% — the criminals, the killers, the rapists, the drug dealers…We’re gonna ignore these stupid white hippies. They all need to go home and take a nap, because they’re all over 90 years old. And we’re gonna get back in the business of protecting the American people and the citizens of Washington, D.C.

This is the JD Vance and Stephen Miller we all know and love. To Miller’s point, it’s the families and historical residents who are robbed (both figuratively and literally) when the city they live in is not safe. For the elite, crime of course is not an issue. When you live off of Foxhall Road, dine at the nicest restaurants, and take jogs through the narrow streets of Georgetown, crime and filth are not something you notice. For the rest of us, however, it’s a constant concern.
One thing is clear: President Trump made the right decision by bringing the National Guard into the city. Residents on the ground are already feeling the positive impact. Joining VP Vance, Secretary Hegseth, and Stephen Miller, we give a special thank you to our National Guard troops and leadership for your service and work in the nation’s capital—Americans see the value of what you’re doing, and we are grateful.
Editor’s Note: Thanks to President Trump and Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth’s leadership, the warrior ethos is coming back to America’s military.
