Statehood for D.C. is an ethical obligation at this point, required to protect the rights of our residents to govern ourselves against such out-of-state troops being sent to patrol our city.
NEW: Republican-led states, in a new filing at the D.C. Circuit, say D.C. residents are irrelevant, D.C. belongs to everyone else. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...
The filing is led by the South Carolina and West Virginia attorneys general. Both states sent troops to DC.

If you're traveling, be kind to those around you.
And remember that flying sucks so much these days because of the greed of the airlines. https://youtu.be/eTzaMXXelew?si=Iadyozwl-WcAKwzT

I will never forget having to edit Jamal’s final, posthumous piece for the Washington Post, after he was murdered.

This morning, the Trump Administration’s Department of War gave me an ultimatum: call up your troops, or we will. It is absolutely outrageous and un-American to demand a Governor send military troops within our own borders and against our will.

Our demand remains: ICE OUT OF DC. NATIONAL GUARD GO HOME.
Trump's control over MPD has now expired but the federal occupation of DC is still going strong. Agents are still harassing and detaining people — including this morning in Columbia Heights.

The Justice Department is compiling the largest set of national voter roll data it has ever collected. They claim their goal is to prove that “troves of undocumented immigrants have voted illegally.” That’s not the real objective.
