At 3 pm Wed., a woman was stabbed just off a busy intersection on H Street, NE. National Guard members were dining al fresco at a taqueria DIRECTLY across the street, yet the suspect got away. "So safe," a local texted us. Our postcard from an Occupied D.C.: www.theatlantic.com/politics/arc...
They are not trained to police cities, and that is not their job. They shouldn't be on the streets at all. Waste of money and time.
The only thing the 🍊🤡 has done is waste/cost us money. All a “reality show” Washington DC. I’m so fucking sick of him, his cabinet and the GOP.
Too little way too late @ashleyparkertn.bsky.social . You've been carrying water for Trump for 10 years. 🖕
I believe you have me confused with someone else, Sir. Happy Day!
You're right. My apologies.
Mexican food must be so good they didn't want to let it go.
The guys were exhausted from raking bark, dust, and leaves picking up litter.
I assume "a local busybody" was struck in the edit.
Of course, the fascists will point to this incident as a reason why more ICE/FBI/NG presence is needed, rather than proof that their presence isn't accomplishing their stated goal. (Yes, I know the *real* goal is fascism)
I know all these restaurants in DC Need the business, need the money.But they need to stop feeding the national guard and the military.. LET THEM BE HUNGRY.. The local residents won't even come into town because of them LET THEM BE HUNGRY😳🤬
Don’t feed them unless they PAY like everyone else
Heckuva job!
It is a stage performance with troops as amateur actors.
They have been summoned there to intimidate the locals. No other purpose.
Ugh.
National Guard members are having lunch at American taxpayers' expense & enjoying the sites in #DC, while people are getting stabbed ... But sure, at least those National Guard members got to say they were in town when it happened. cc: @govpritzker.illinois.gov @governor.ca.gov
They are coming for 26 beaches and cultural attractions in Chicago one week from now. I hope our city remains peaceful.
Only the Republicans want the violence so they can declare martial law and remain in power eternally.
This is true. Hope there are no false flags.
They’re on vaca with the guys.
They're here to do ethnic cleansing, not law enforcement.
?????
I'm guessing the victim wasn't white.
Making crime great again.
Good Christ.
🧐🤨🤔 Hmmm, makes me think that maybe trump has assembled a personal army of National Guard troops for some other reason than to cut down on crime in DC…
WTF?!?!?! A woman is stabbed across the street from a group of Nat Guards - & they do NOTHING??? 💩
at least they're contributing to the local economy.
