This fool! She legitimately thought that negotiating with a bully would get the bully off her back, but she’s bent all the way over (more than we knew!) & keeps learning what was painfully obvious to everyone before Nov ‘24: Better to go down fighting than lose your soul in appeasement. #FreeDC
Quote from Washington Post article on DC’s Vichy Mayor Muriel Bowser: Behind the scenes, Bowser has worked to appease Trump in both small and significant ways - and more often than has been publicly known — in the year since his reelection, a Washington Post examination found.” Quote from Washington Post article about Mayor Muriel Bowser: “At the same time, she has angered liberal constituents, and the limits of her strategy have come into focus since the emergency order expired in September. D.C. police are still working alongside federal immigration enforcement agents, and National Guard troops from red states are still patrolling the city.” Told y’all nothing would change! And it hasn’t! Despite Muriel Trump’s assertions to the contrary. Quote from Washington Post article about Mayor Muriel Bowser: “Bowser took a moment to consider what it would mean for residents if the emergency expired in six days. The National Guard's presence, she believed, would peter out on its own. "They want to go home," she said, adding that troops' morale was low.” 🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 she clearly does NOT understand the President AT ALL Quote from Washington Post article about our Idiot Mayor: “The next day, Bowser interpreted Trump's new praise of D.C.'s safety as a sign he would lose interest in the surge. "I think when Trump goes out and says 'This is the safest city in America, to me, what I hear is, 'I'm done with this," Bowser said in an interview. Less than a week later, she got a stark reminder of Trump's focus on D.C. and his unpredictability. In an early-morning post on his Truth Social account, the president accused Bowser of instructing the city's police to stop working with ICE and threatened once again to take over the city.” 🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡

Case in point, from Monday. If MPD isn’t collaborating with immigration enforcement, why was HSI there, @mayorbowser.dc.gov?
From Washington Post article about the arrest of a DC Police sergeant “Court records show D.C. police officers were patrolling alongside federal agents from the FBI, United States Marshal Service, Homeland Security Investigations, Diplomatic Security Service and other agencies as part of the law enforcement surge ordered first by President Donald Trump. Federal patrols alongside D.C. police were then extended indefinitely by an order from Mayor Muriel E. Bowser (D).” Mayor Bowser needs to stop lying about MPD collaboration with federal immigration enforcement

Just garbage fascist show of force outside Union Station this morning. Three running SUVs, two of which were unoccupied, protecting pedestrians from having a safe place to walk, while a useless tool of fascism talks on his cell
Amtrak Police SUV with lights but zero officers, running but parked on a pedestrian island outside Union Station blocking the way of any pedestrians with mobility restrictions and polluting the air. Another vacant but running with lights Amtrak Police SUV parked on ANOTHER pedestrian island outside Union Station while a federal LEO, standing next to an unmarked law enforcement SUV talks on his cell

Fascism is here. @mayorbowser.bsky.social is a collaborator
Tweet by Jennifer Jacobs @JenniferJJacobs from Aug. 7, 2025 Starting tonight, there will be an increased federal law enforcement in DC to prevent crime, White House says. The added presence will last for next 7 days," with the option to extend as needed," will be from: -Metro Transit Police Department -Amtrak Police Department -United States Capitol Police -Metro Police Department -Homeland Security Investigations -Federal Protective Service -Enforcement and Removal Operations -Drug Enforcement Administration -Federal Bureau of Investigation -Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms -United States Marshals Service -US Attorney's Office - District of Columbia -Department of Interior -Pre-Trial Services Agency -Court Services and Offender Supervision Agency Screenshot of Aug 7, 2025 email from an attorney in the DC attorney general’s office Good Afternoon, We wanted to let you know that we expect a surge of arrests and FD-12s by local law enforcement and many federal partners to advance the federal agenda of addressing crime in the District. We anticipate a concerted effort to clear out homeless tents/encampments and parks. This may result in a high volume of involuntary hospitalizations. We wanted to give you this notice so that you may warn your hospital staff to be prepared to seek additional support if this happens. Then a link that says White House plans increase in federal law enforcement in DC over crime as Trump threatens to bring in National Guard

DC’s Mayor is a fucking collaborator.

Reposting with ALT text this time because I was in a rush earlier.

From the Washington Post: Much of the work has stemmed from a D.C. Safe and Beautiful Task Force created by executive order in March, which has sought to ensure increased law enforcement patrols, graffiti cleanups and prosecutions of crime. "With all the large-scale events happening in D.C. this summer, the increased focus and support from the Task Force has allowed MPD to be focused on driving down crime in our neighborhoods while partners assist on federal properties," Bowser said in a statement. "We appreciate the collaboration with federal partners, and we will continue working together on our shared priority of keeping DC safe and beautiful." A White House official, speaking on the condition of anonymity to describe private interactions, characterized the White House's relationship with Bowser this term as "respectful and highly productive."

Cosplaying war poisons the air and also tortures all the animals. Stupid ass way to “celebrate” independence

Final paragraph of epilogue to Masha Gessen’s Surviving Autocracy in which they equate the way we relate to the SARS-CoV-2 virus to the way we relate to Donald Trump, saying we can only heal by reinventing our lives instead of trying to return to an imaginary past that came before them.

Narrator: Sadly, when it came to BOTH the SARS2 virus AND tRump, we chose an imaginary past instead of committing ourselves to reinvention.
