@CMBrookePinto Much more govt. coordination is necessary. The sidewalks in front of Francis Field/Dog Park and Francis School were cleared and salted by Tuesday, but not Francis Pool. Washington Circle, National Park Service is untouched despite being a major walkway.

@MayorBowser Thank you to everyone that is working. But there must be more clarity on responsibility at the curb cut. It took me two hours of hard labor to break through just six interchanges on < 3 blocks. People climbing 12-18" piles of ice to cross each street is dangerous

[Manthos for WV @Manthos4WV]

@RepJeffries So then go and whip the fucking votes to actually stop DHS! #DefundICE and prosecute them! What the hell are you waiting for?

[Manthos for WV @Manthos4WV]

.@51stnews Right by ICE HQ I believe and says police activity not First Amendment activity. #ICEOutForGood

[AlertDC @AlertDC]

[AlertDC] MPD reports the following road closures due to police activity:

- 400-600 blocks of 12th Street, SW
- 1100 block of D Street, SW
- 1300 block of Maryland Avenue, SW

Please use alternate routes. https://t.co/RKMQUrEfUK

@dcfireems Stuff happens, but any fire around a .@Smithsonian museum while this regime is rewriting history and posting troops on the #NationalMall is cause for close scrutiny. @maustermuhle @washingtonpost @WTOP

[DC Fire and EMS Department @dcfireems]

Box alarm 1300 block of Constitution Ave NW. Bank of Batteries on fire in a below grade area Museum of American History. Units investigating further. #DCsBravest

[Manthos for WV @Manthos4WV]

And then only manage to alter sections under active threat by this regime? Citizens rely on official sources like .@librarycongress to help them assert their Constitutional rights. The velociraptors are testing the gorram fences and @Politifact calls this claim is false? #1984

[Manthos for WV @Manthos4WV]

@SamPutterman @PolitiFact I object. Just because the legal authority of the Constitution is not altered, the fact that the sections of plain text went missing from an official government source is 100% true. How often does one have to edit the transcript of a 230+ year document?

[Samantha Putterman @SamPutterman]

Yes, sections of the Constitution were missing on a government website. No, it didn’t change US law. https://t.co/EKiadvISNS

@maustermuhle Great meeting you last night at the @51stnews happy hour. This appears to be the case on #WMATA advertising related to what @macnham mentioned about military procurement advertising.

I’m unsurprised the Mayor proposed to repeal tipped min wage. Or that she plans to do it in the budget. Or that she’s doing it less than a week after proposing a $1B stadium handout to a billionaire w/o even speaking to labor or making any guarantees of union jobs.
@DCfoodworkers

[Manthos for WV @Manthos4WV]

@RepRaskin It's literally right there in that beautiful Article 2 that .@realDonaldTrump loves to brag about, right after the Emoluments Clause (not that he paid any attention to that one either). He is exactly the kind of #DomesticEnemy every civil servant swears to defend against.

[Manthos for WV @Manthos4WV]

@libbyemmons Are you seriously claiming the other candidate raised $500K for their own @CityCharlesTown council race? Hartman only shared a United Way post w/o editorial. I think you knew that, otherwise you would have linked to the post directly as you did later. Will you correct this?

[Manthos for WV @Manthos4WV]

Which is it .@MayorBowser @DCPoliceDept? Did MPD respond to the @USIP's calls for help about a break-in? Or did they participate in helping the trespassers strong-arm their way in? https://t.co/Mio5sMXTYj

[Manthos for WV @Manthos4WV]

@SenCapito @SenateGOP There's a lot in the CR I can disagree with, but I understand there was no objection in the Senate to the standalone bill to allow DC to continue with the current budget. So thank you. Back to you .@RileyMooreWV on March 24. #EndTaxationWithoutRepresentation

[Manthos for WV @Manthos4WV]

@SenCapito @SenateGOP Neither is taking a hatchet to the #DC budget. It's our taxes, budget, and city, but Congress is going to force us to slash education, public safety, and other essential services. Isn't the GOP supposed to be the party of small government and local control?

[Eric Goulet @EJGoulet]

1. It was not a mistake. It was deliberate.
2. @SenSchumer is giving away all leverage.
3. Republican leadership doesn’t want to fix it, because you are dealing with people who operate in bad faith and who want to hurt and humiliate DC residents.

[Brianne K. Nadeau @BrianneKNadeau]

If Senators vote for the CR, they must also insist on Senator Alsobrook's amendment to protect D.C. and the region from a catastrophic $1 billion mid-year cut. There's still time - keep the calls to senators coming!

[Manthos for WV @Manthos4WV]

@SenSchumer This CR forces the destruction of key government programs and services in the District of Columbia. Thanks for nothing.

[Manthos for WV @Manthos4WV]

@maustermuhle @51stnews .@CaptMarkKelly @SenAngusKing @SenatorSlotkin District residents don't have direct representation in Congress. That's why our license plates say "Taxation Without Representation" Please have your staff do better + don't slash millions from our city. https://t.co/AJvNn8fDoI

[Manthos for WV @Manthos4WV]

@MayorBowser @ServeDC @DCDPW @DDOTDC @DCDGS @wmata @311DCgov I would submit the entrances and exits to Washington Circle that are owned by the city and covered in packed ice. Except 311 is breaking left and right. Can't reset my own account. My wife can't submit a request from a new account. Is this safe?
