Formerly known as DCFerguson, we are committed to changing the system of racist, militarized policing in DC & beyond
Washington, DC
Joined July 2015
Thousands of DC residents have spoken, marched, and protested. When will the mayor and the Council listen? It's PAST TIME to defund the DC Police and ban the use of stop-and-frisk. https://t.co/5HHSfPTFTd

Remember that not only are there hundreds of witnesses and videos documenting MPD handing people over to ICE, patrolling with ICE, and riding in the same cars as ICE-there are in-depth investigations detailing MPD-ICE collaboration published by both NYT and the Washington Post

Would be great if other councilmembers stopped by @BrianneKNadeau's roundtable to hear testimony from traumatized and disgusted DC residents about MPD cooperation with feds, esp @ChmnMendelson @AnitaBondsDC @CMBrookePinto @kenyanmcduffie @CMCharlesAllen @CMRobertWhiteDC

Finally the DC Council is holding a hearing on the collaboration between DC MPD and ICE and the @MayorBowser is not only refusing to show up but won’t send anyone from the executive to defend her truly abhorrent cooperation with fascists terrorizing DC. Resign already.

This is a reminder that Muriel Bowser is up for election in November 2026. Don't forget how she threw DC residents under the bus to cozy up to Trump.

Federal law enforcement and National Guard are occupying our streets with the full cooperation of DC police and our mayor. Join us on Sunday in-person or virtually to learn how we got here and what we can do about it. SUNDAY Sept 7, 2-4 PM REGISTER https://t.co/qyj6ojNR6x

Appreciate this reporting from @emmauber7 but baffled that it doesn't mention that this also violates DC law, not just MPD policy. The law was significantly weakened by the Council last year but still only permits car chases if "immediately necessary to protect another person"
The US Park Police has started 10 police pursuits for traffic or non-violent crimes in the last three weeks. 6 have ended with crashes.

Bowser did not directly respond on whether the results will be shared with the federal gov., potentially allowing it to target encampments. “We don’t expect that we’re gonna have homeless encampments, and we are gonna work to make sure people can come into shelter,” she said.

"My constituents are getting assaulted and disappeared off the street and that's cool by me and I'd actually like more of it" -- @MayorBowser
Bowser seems to hint that she'd be OK with the federal surge continuing beyond the initial 30 days. "I think we're going to have officers. We want to enhance our officer presence," she says.

What's @MayorBowser doing in response to kidnappings of DC residents? "Asked to respond to concerns that routine enforcement...could allow ICE to detain more drivers, Mayor Muriel E. Bowser (D) said: “We are exploring any additional guidance that our officers need” Nothing. Cool.

"My brother has gone missing. There’s no other word for it." ICE is joining D.C. police patrols. Moped drivers are an early target. https://t.co/W8AwcMXKZ1

Before Trump’s crusade against crime in D.C., most delivery drivers were let go after traffic stops. Now they are being sent to immigrant detention centers.

NEWS: MPD is no longer in Washington Circle Park. An estimated 10 tents between 22nd and K down to 26th and L NW were removed by MPD officers and DPW. DMHHS and federal officers were not on site during this. @streetsensedc 🧵
