DYK that the phrase “I will die on this hill” originally referred to Capitol Hill and was first used in a Washington Post article in the early 1900s to describe geriatric members of Congress who refused to retire.
I love DC to death but the drivers are most definitely, 1000% psychopaths.

Hopefully, someone buys him a dictionary for Christmas!

An ICE agent was caught removing a sign marking an ICE kidnapping in DC last week! Do we think he did it out of anger, embarrassment, or most appropriately shame? If you think what you’re doing is right, why are you trying to hide the evidence? 👀

A grand jury might indict a ham sandwich, but a trial jury won't necessarily convict one.
🚨🚨🚨 The jury has reached a verdict. Sean Dunn, aka the DC Sandwich Guy, has been found NOT GUILTY of assault.

Border Patrol agent Lairmore testifies that he was not injured by the sandwich, but he felt the impact through his ballistic vest.
The sandwich came apart and "kind of exploded" on his chest upon impact, he says.
"I could smell the onions and mustard."

If showing up in community today felt great, imagine how cool it would be to always be working on building new worlds & resisting fascism!
Wherever you are, there’s probably projects to plug into. If there isn’t, you can get together with some friends or even just by yourself & start doing things.
