It is the families facing eviction, the workers without healthcare, and the parents who can't afford groceries who feel the real insecurity.
These officials, barricaded behind military gates, prove how detached they are from that daily reality.

Trump’s D.C. deployment is not only wasteful, it’s also illegal.
It's a stunning misuse of military resources and taxpayer dollars when soldiers are "just gardening" instead of training for real emergencies.
Our troops deserve better than to be used as pawns in a political stunt.
