Two things can be true at the same time: - We can offer the folks cleaning up our city kindness and grace, knowing they are working hard. - We can hold the city accountable for ensuring the streets are cleaned up quickly so ppl are safe AND we can resume business/earn a living.
Sidewalks absolutely pristine outside of Cucina Morini(Thanks DC Bar and MVT BID) But the roads and access to the sidewalks haven’t really been touched. I know it takes time. But we also need to get back to business @DCDPW @MayorBowser some help would be appreciated!
Cynics and defeatists share the same story as authoritarians do: that nothing is worth trying, the conclusion is foregone, hope is naïve, and attempts to resist are too small or futile. Don’t listen to them. Do not give up. Try. A better world is possible. We will win. We must.
Trump is stealing your health care to fund the murder of US citizens in the streets. All it would take to end this is 16 Republicans in Congress voting to defund ICE today. Or 23 to impeach and remove Trump from office. 23 out of 238. That’s it.
We have a responsibility to protect Americans from tyranny. DHS just shot a man in broad daylight two weeks after they shot a mother in the face without consequence. They need our votes to continue. We cannot give it to them. Every Senator should vote NO.
Reminder: DHS legislation that funds ICE at current levels without policy restrictions is in the Senate and needs 60 votes to pass. Deadline is next Friday.
They shot Renee Good in the face. They kidnapped Liam Ramos. They just executed a man on the street. Unmask them. Prosecute them. No more secret police.
If there was ever a moment for libertarians and conservatives to step up and join the rest of us, we’re in it. Americans have to unite and stop this descent from a freedom-loving nation into the kind of place where masked, militarized government agents are sent to politically…

This is why the most efficient form of universal childcare looks something like “legalizing and buildings lots of new housing of various typologies” because there is no cheaper childcare than “grandma and grandpa live down the block and are free”
complaints about the cost of childcare are essentially a complaint that you do not have slaves. there is no way to have vetted care for kids with adult:kid ratios we find acceptable and it be cheap and also pay the people who provide it
#DC Residents: Why are ICE recruitment ads on our public transit? How can we remove them and ensure our buses remain safe, welcoming public spaces for all communities? @BrianneKNadeau @MayorBowser @freedcproject_ @AdMoBID @DCist @wmata @dccouncil @washingtonpost @_MatthewThomas
If you are afraid to have a public debate in Congress about whether our sons and daughters should be committed to military action in Venezuela, you might be the one blinded by TDS!
🚨 I voted NO on @SenTimKaine’s resolution to cripple @realDonaldTrump’s efforts in Venezuela. Democrats are so blinded by TDS they can’t even acknowledge that @POTUS is making our world a safer place.
The violence, lies, propaganda, assaults on constitutional norms, and attacks on American citizens and states in just the last week are horrifying. It isn’t normal. It’s not ok. It’s not something we should accept. America is an idea. A great one. We need to fight to keep it.
Renee Nicole Good was a mother of three, including a 6-year-old boy who is now an orphan. Renee was deeply loved by many. Her mom described her as “one of the kindest people I’ve ever known.” This is who we lost yesterday. By refusing to coordinate with local law enforcement,…
Mayor Bowser is right, automated traffic enforcement is so much more than a revenue source, it's a proven, safe way to get drivers to slow down and follow the law
Removing ATE cameras would endanger people in our community. We call on our federal partners to stand with us in prioritizing safety and respecting the District’s ability to govern our own streets. My full statement:
An ICE agent shot and killed this driver. That is indisputable and outrageous. The victim’s family and all Americans deserve an investigation and accountability.
Breaking News: An ICE agent shot and killed a person in Minneapolis during an enforcement operation, days after the Trump administration ramped up the agency's presence in the city. Follow live updates. nyti.ms/45Cd0TZ

Officials Dispute Federal Account of Fatal ICE Encounter in Minnesota
Federal officials said a woman was trying to kill agents with a car in Minneapolis. City and state officials called that account false, demanding an end to the immigration crackdown.

Federal DOT trying to scrap road safety in DC. Wrong to frame this about $. While it would have a huge impact on city finances, more damaging effect is on safety. Just as we’re lowering traffic injuries & deaths, this would give a green light to dangerous drivers on our roads.
Scoop: The Transportation Department is seeking to scrap the use of automated traffic enforcement cameras in Washington, a move that would cost the city millions in lost revenue but would likely be cheered by many drivers in the nation’s capital. subscriber.politicopro.com/article/2026/0…
Last October, a driver hit a kid in a crosswalk in DC. He had 60 outstanding tickets totaling $14,988, 90%-ish of which were for failure to stop at a stop sign. Luckily, this kid was able to walk away. Reminder: no one is getting ticketed for going 3-10mph over the speed limit.
This would kill people.

DC's Swann Street has acted as a stage where questions of force, authority, and belonging have played out across generations: ggwash.org/view/101915/no…
