House Dems should be focused on this — DoD trying to normalize troops on American streets — not trying to reinstate a cash bail policy in DC that hasn’t been in effect for 3 decades.
The Alaska National Guard has responded to public concerns around a rapid response unit trained for "civil disturbance operations:" 100 service members will be trained "to support civil authorities."

These 20 House Democrats just joined Republicans in voting to fully repeal DC's police reform laws.
Wiping off the books critical laws on use of force, transparency, and preventing violent cops from getting rehired.
They think that they should have more say over DC police than the people of DC.

We stand united against all 13 anti–DC Home Rule bills in Congress.
DC is home to more than 700,000 residents who pay taxes, run businesses, and serve in the military. Like all Americans, we deserve the right to set our own local laws.
Congress should reject this unprecedented federal overreach.

Today 31 Democrats chose to side with Donald Trump over DC.
We did not ask for this. It will not make us safer. And fueling this fascist president's agenda is dangerous for our entire country. (🧵)

Not one toe stepped in D.C. City Hall. Not one consultation with City Council, law enforcement, or one public hearing.
Since the GOP seems more concerned with pleasing the White House and the affairs of D.C. than their own districts, they should run for Mayor in D.C. Until then, hands off! #FreeDC

The bills being discussed in the U.S. House Oversight Committee today would result in real material harm to DC communities. Republicans don’t have enough support to pass them without help.
We call on every single Democrat in both chambers to reject these bills and all attacks on DC's power.

People may do something once they love to other cities. Because it’s absolute silence for DC right now
Correct. It’s insane that anyone is standing for this. We need people in the streets, campus protests, a general strike. Democrats should be holding rallies and press events constantly. The apathy in the face of all this is astounding.
That was one of the most batshit press conferences of Trump's public life. He brandished a photo of Putin and promised to deploy the US military to occupy Chicago, New York, and San Francisco. A sane country would be moving toward impeachment and removal right now.
