For comparison’s sake, from July 28 to August 2 MPD alone made 418 arrests. And from August 3 to August 9, it was 537 arrests. So 630 arrests in roughly 10 days of this federal surge is maybe a little above usual, until you subtract the immigration-related arrests.
This is the City we know and love. This is the real D.C.
Our voices matter and our statehood shouldn’t be questioned. Federal overreach is an insult to our democracy and we must #DefendDC.
I’m so proud of you , neighbors.

Happy Anniversary to my friends at Ben’s Chili Bowl! No matter what obstacles D.C. faces, Ben’s stands tall.
I am excited to return to their historic U Street location once the renovation is complete.
EARLIER THIS EVENING: A Go-Go concert and a ‘Defend the District’ protest against President Trump’s crime crackdown took place at 14th Street & U Street NW in Washington DC
