All those people downtown yesterday, no ICE involvement, and not one incident. ICE shows up in a neighborhood and now another Minnesotan is dead. It's pretty obvious who the violent outside agitators are.

I just spoke with the White House after another horrific shooting by federal agents this morning. Minnesota has had it. This is sickening.
The President must end this operation. Pull the thousands of violent, untrained officers out of Minnesota. Now.

@knoxharrington.bsky.social last time TAW was in Washington, DC you said to drop you a line if folks ever came to Liverpool. Managed to get a few friends together for the match against Sunderland in Dec. Got any recommendations for a first visit to the city/Anfield?

If you've ever driven through the intersection at Georgia and Missouri Avenues NW, you've gone through Alan's Oasis, where a homeless man has been giving out free bottles of water for more than three years. This is a such a great profile of Alan: 51st.news/dc-alans-oas...
For 1,250 days, Alan has given out free water at a busy Brightwood intersection
He’s built a community that stood up for him when the threat of eviction loomed.

NEW: Reuters took a closer look at violent crime in D.C. after President Trump began a show of force here. Despite the big investment of federal resources, it's really hard at this point to see any dramatic changes.

how would DCPS possibly replace these 200 teachers? especially since the school system competes for employees with the DC charter schools, MoCo, PG, Arlington, Alexandria county and city, and Fairfax
DCPS reneged on its promise to help hundreds of international teachers secure a green card. Many may now be forced to leave the country. Read the full story from @maustermuhle.bsky.social 51st.news/dc-green-car...
DCPS promised them green cards. Now, these international teachers have nowhere to turn
More than 200 teachers may soon have to leave the country because of what they say are broken promises from the city's school system.

DC is under siege by our own federal government, with armed military patrolling our streets & masked agents scooping up neighbors & taking them away. Our residents are afraid, hesitant to go out & to work, angry that our limited autonomy is being eroded. There is nothing welcome about this.

My two cents on #20. Don't retire it. The famous #LFC numbers carry a history, a responsibility, and a living testament to what our club is, has been, and always will be. Like Kenny's 7 and Stevie's 8, anyone who wears #20 will be expected to play with grit, guile and joy of Diogo Jota. Forever.
