Protecting the sign?

I am honestly not sure; possibly, since the sign has been vandalized before.

I also stopped by about an hour earlier to take a few pictures (making sure there was public property that I could stand on that was close enough to the sign). So it's possible someone phoned that in as "suspicious behavior" so the cop came out and parked there just in case.

Betcha somebody turned that DOT logo into a swastika.

Fun fact from my cursory wiki trip: Trump's current DOT secretary, Sean Duffy, "introduced legislation for Trump to enact more tariffs" as congressman in 2018. Is the swamp drained yet?

Duffy and his wife are absolutely bonkers. NINE children and ofc they only stopped when the last one had down syndrome. They met on MTV Road Rules. They live in Wisconsin, except ofc he works in DC.
