Mr. Trump’s Senate trial is scheduled to begin Feb. 8. “We are providing assistance such as security, communications, medical evacuation, logistics and safety support to state district and federal agencies,” the National Guard said in a statement. The announcement comes after it was revealed that more than 100 Guard troops stationed at the Capitol for President Biden’s inauguration have tested positive for COVID-19. Hundreds more troops are in quarantine. Defense officials are pointing to the cramped rest and working areas as the reason for the spread, pointing to relocating troops to the parking garage as the outbreak’s cause. Outraged politicians on both sides of the aisle fumed after photos of the troops hunkering down in a cold, cramped parking garage instead of the Capitol quickly went viral. Guard members were moved to the garage to take their break time, according to Politico, which first reported the story.
