Nat Guard Allowed Back In Capitol After Eviction To Pkg Garage; Trump Offers DC Hotel Rooms

• Zero Hedge

Update (1020ET): National Guardsmen have been allowed back into the Capitol Complex after outrage erupted over their Thursday eviction to nearby parking garages.

According to CNN, one Guardsman said that they are now allowed to rest in the US Capitol Visitor Center.

Meanwhile, Donald Trump has reportedly given permission for troops to stay at Trump Hotel DC if needed.

Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer, meanwhile, said that it was "utterly unacceptable" to find that National Guardsmen were "sleeping in parking garages and cramped quarters without proper space or ventilation," adding "I pledge to every national guard member that it will not happen again."
