Congressman Mark Alford
[August 11, 2025]

🚨 @POTUS IS SECURING THE SAFETY AND PEACEFUL FUNCTIONING OF OUR NATION’S CAPITAL:
[….]

There was much hilarity in the responses:

Starting to look a lot like CHINA – turning the troops on the CITIZENS. RELEASE THE EPSTEIN FILES.

Washington DC, District of Corruption with DjT is in office. Supporters of pedophiles are not right

Remember Jan 6? We do.

One must really wonder what’s in those files…
[….]

Is this why the White House removed the Habeas Corpus section of the Constitution on their website site last week?

How did he suddenly discover he can call out the national guard? Because he said he couldn’t on Jan 6. When there were actual terrorists trashing the capital and assaulting capital police. Curious.

One of the very first things he did was pardon the J6 rioters who assaulted police. Now he has one of them working in the Justice Dept. He himself has 34 felony convictions. I think I see a way to make a dramatic difference in reducing the influence of the criminal element in DC.

sounds like something Hitler would have done

Really, Mark. When are we gonna see the Epstein Files?

I wouldn’t believe any fact sheet issued out of this Whitehouse

Dictator move.

But it runs rampant in the white house.

Why didn’t he do that on Jan 6?

Fact: Violent crime in DC has fallen by 52% in the last 2 years and is currently at a 30 year low.
[….]

Did you visit Epstein’s island?
We can not be sure who was involved until it is public.
Any officials who want to prove their innocence ought to push for the release of these files, otherwise, we shall always be suspicious that they might also be rapists.

The irony of a 34x felon claiming to restore law and order. This administration is a joke.

Following dear leader felon all the way.
The distractor-in-chief.

The amount of people giddy about the guard taking over our streets is alarming. Ever been to DC? Likely not. Ever been to a 3rd world country or communist country where their military walks the streets, airports, etc? Likely not either. Know history? Def not. My God.

DC’s crime rate is lower than it’s been in decades. What’s the real reason he’s calling out the National Guard?

To put this in real life isn’t this just like taking homeless people off the streets of KC and putting them in blue springs in tents and bragging how much this makes KC look better. Does nothing to handle our veterans with PTSD that are on the streets or kids thrown out when they turn 18 or the mental health problems,plus it pissed off magats in blue springs cuz you moved them there. A righteous man once said that that you do for the least of your brothers so you do for me,please sir dont pat yourself on the back to hard are you might knock yourself over.

This is about punishing political opponents, there is no world in which this is about law & order (January 6th, we will never forget, never forgive)

He’s militarizing against US citizens. He is creating a dictator state. This is not about “restoring” anything; this is about power and narcissism.

Crime in DC is down 26 percent from last year, but OK.

DICTATOR WANNABE POWER GRAB😡

What about all of the sex traffickers and pedophiles in the Epstein files? When is the safety of our underage girls and women going to be secured by locking up all those rich pedos that Trump is friends with??

Bullshit. You are are dumbass….or worse.

Law and order from a 34 time criminal FELON and sexual abuser???

MAGA are the criminals in DC. It’s abundantly clear.

This is AUTHORITARIANISM! Crime in Washington DC is at a 30 year low and You are supporting this illegal takeover of our nation’s capitol! What happened to supporting freedom, supporting the Constitution, and supporting the rule of law??? We did not vote you into office to do this!!

Mark, you’re on the wrong side of history. Fascist and pedophile protector.

GOP = guardians of pedophiles

Anything to take the Epstein stink off of Trump.

Release the Epstein files

So why not spend the $200,000,000 that is going towards a tacky White House ballroom and create housing for the homeless instead?

Do you ever get tired of lying? Or have you done it so long in your Fox years that you have just sold your soul to it?

Did Not-See this coming.
Those Epstein files must really implicate Trump as a pedophile.

Amazing that crime is down over 23% in DC. This is just Trump try to test dictatorial rule.

Fun fact: crime is down 24% in DC. Trump is just looking for an excuse to disperse armed military on every street like third world countries do. He wants to stop protesting and first amendment rights.

From car jackings?????
Isn’t that what cops are for?????
You’re a goddamned moron!

So, no national guard on January 6th, but definitely on August 11th. Makes total sense.
[….]

It’s more nazi bullshit

How do you spin this one Alford? The felon says he is going to federalize the police and then the FBI comes in and says it is already on pace to be the lowest ever. Do you really think people are this stupid?
[….]

Yes. This has been another edition of Short Answers to Simple Questions.

Do you have any real work to do besides posting lies about how great your cult leader is?
What have YOU done for Missouri??
And BTW, how about those Epstein files???

All-caps doesn’t make the rolling out of military personnel without, say, an insurrection any more valid.

Hmmm. This makes me curious. January 6th Trump supporters in the Capitol. 5 law enforcement officers DEAD and many more injured. And then Trump PARDONED the people who took part that day. 34 guilty verdicts, etc. And he’s the one who is going to end crime? Makes me wonder whose side you are really on. Back the blue and the law, Congressman Mark Alford.

Militarizing our nation’s capital is the behavior of dictators, not leaders in a democracy. Using armed force against your own people is an admission of failure, a betrayal of our values, and a threat to every American’s freedom.

Will US troops be ordered to shoot Americans? What city will be next?
This should scare the shit out of every American

Another distraction
