Sun Herald: National Guard Removes D.C. Trash for $1M Daily

National Guard troops have reportedly been deployed to clean up trash across Washington, D.C. The effort comes amid President Donald Trump’s crime emergency declaration, and the trash pickup is reportedly costing an estimated $1 million daily. The troops have allegedly collected over 500 bags of trash and cleared over 3 miles of roadways, compensating for a reduced National Park Service workforce.

The National Guard stated, “Guardsmen have cleaned more than 3.2 miles of roadways, collected more than 500 bags of trash, and disposed of three truckloads of plant waste.

At least they have something useful to do, which must somehow magically lower the crime rate?
