Leave it to the Republicans to do something heartwarming.
While Joe Biden and his administration wasted no time banishing troops to a cold, wet parking garage and failing to salute Marines, Republicans jumped in to help out.
First was the report that President Trump opened up his DC Hotel to any troops who wanted to stay there (instead of a parking garage floor).
Then came Republican Rep. Madison Cawthorn bringing pizzas to our hungry troops.

Well done Madison!
Watch:
I just visited the solders who have been abandoned & insulted by our leaders. I brought them pizza and told them that they can sleep in my office.
No soldier will ever, ever sleep on a garage floor in the US Capitol while I work in Congress

From Fox News:
Republican Rep. Madison Cawthorn is vowing that America’s troops “deserve to be treated with honor, dignity, and respect” following reports of shabby treatment of National Guard forces stationed in the U.S. Capitol.
The freshman congressman from North Carolina tweeted a video of himself delivering pizzas to the troops in a D.C. parking garage late Thursday night.
“The men and women who put their lives on the line to defend our liberties deserve to be treated with honor, dignity, and respect. We rest easy at night knowing that they stand guard at the door of Democracy,” Cawthorn told Fox News in a statement Friday.
“No soldier ought to be treated as expendable, or used as a political prop to be cast aside when the cameras leave the room,” he continued. “Last night, I heard that our National Guard troops had been relegated to the underbelly of the peoples’ house. I instantly called my staff, ordered as many pizzas as we could carry, and we headed out to thank them for their service.”
In the video, Cawthorn is heard calling for the troops’ attention.
“Hey guys, my name is Madison Cawthorn, I heard they kicked your a—s down here so we brought some pizza if anybody wants any,” he says, drawing applause from the troops.
He then is seen handing out pies.
“I appreciate it, man,” one soldier is hearing telling Cawthorn.
