You Okay, Bro? Jim Acosta Posts About Seeing National Guard In DC *GASP* – Twitchy

Independent journalist (and former CNN White House correspondent) Jim Acosta took to X yesterday to report this earth-shattering news:

Just spotted down on the National Mall… members of the DC National Guard who were deployed by Trump as part of his takeover of the MPD. pic.twitter.com/mFAY58tdLD

Our first question was “And?” 

Seriously, what are we supposed to do with this information? President Trump said he was deploying the National Guard in Washington, DC, and that’s what he did. You know, kept his word like he always does.

We weren’t alone in wondering about the point of this post:

I notice you weren’t mugged. https://t.co/keOixHum39

Wow, just look at these stormtroopers stamping out dissent. I’m glad you’re ok, Jim! https://t.co/OMmysM4rVa pic.twitter.com/3yNYNRqBY3

Yep, definitely a close one there, Jim!

Unfortunately, Acosta may not be aware of the outpouring of sympathy he’s receiving over the horror of having to see American soldiers protecting and serving our Nation’s Capital. That’s because he’s turned off replies to his post:

He definitely still has one of those things, and our money says it isn’t his dignity.
