Thousands of veterans marched on the veteran memorials, namely the World War 2 memorial in Washington, DC, with Senators Ted Cruz and Mike Lee and also Sarah Palin joining the veterans. They tore down the barriers and chanted “Tear down these walls!”. Vets were protesting the closure of the memorials during the government shutdown and the White House’s attempt to proactively keep vets out to make the shutdown “more painful” than it has to be for ordinary Americans.
