Trump saved DC from the mob
On the night of Sunday, May 31, I read about the burning of the church near the White House, and, as a Department of Veterans Affairs headquarters employee[i], I received a work email stating that our two HQ buildings next to that church — the main building and the overflow building — had been "vandalized." On Friday, June 5, I came back to D.C. to see for myself what had happened to the V.A. and surrounding areas.
Lots of photos.
