Thousands of DC residents have spoken, marched, and protested. When will the mayor and the Council listen? It's PAST TIME to defund the DC Police and ban the use of stop-and-frisk. NoMoreStopAndFrisk.com #NoMoreStopAndFrisk #DefundMPD #PoliceFreeSchools #BlackLivesMatter

Too "logistically complicated" to ask they guy working next to you their name, yes, sure checks out, definitely no follow up needed
Martin Austermuhle@maustermuhleMar 24
Good catch here by @Meagan_Flynn. White’s bill drew concerns from MPD brass, who said it would be too logistically complicated to expect D.C. officers to document the names of federal agents, especially when they have to secure a crime scene, collect evidence, etc.

Tho at the same time, Bowser is vetoing @CMRobertWhiteDC's legislation that required MPD to document the federal officers at the scenes of arrest or when there's a use of force, her spoxes say
Martin Austermuhle@maustermuhleMar 23
A tidbit: @MayorBowser has signed the emergency bill passed by the D.C. Council that requires MPD to disclose body camera footage from local officers patrolling with federal agents if/when they fire their guns or use serious force. It'll be in effect until June 21.

Hi @CMBrookePinto @CMLewisGeorgeW4 @RobertWhite_DC @CMZParker5 why are folks being denied entry to a public hearing in a room with plenty of empty seats?

Even though the official federal takeover ended months ago DC residents have continued to endure occupation by federal agents, ICE, and the national guard -all of this voluntarily aided and abetted by DC police
WEDNESDAY DC Council will hold an oversight hearing on the DC MPD Council members must demand answers and end MPD's cooperation with ICE Read DC communities' collective demands

DC residents have been forced to beg their representatives and leaders for answers and accountability from a police force that has already inflicted decades of harm - a force that just last year happily rehired two convicted murderers after they were pardoned by Donald Trump
What DC councilmembers can and do to keep us safe: Demand that MPD end all voluntary cooperation with the federal occupation of DC, including ending participation in the “Safe and Beautiful Taskforce” Demand that MPD rescind Order 25-005 — the MPD order allowing MPD to share information about DC residents’ immigration status with ICE Ban MPD and DC police from sharing information with ICE about people in or out of MPD custody

This is the Council's chance to demand answers and accountability. To keep DC safe, DC councilmembers can and must take these actions
Strengthen the DC Sanctuary Values Amendment Act Prohibit MPD’s continued use of its secret gang database, which arbitrarily labels DC residents as criminals without their knowledge, and shares that information with federal agencies Require federal agents operating in DC to follow the same requirements and rules as MPD, including policies around identification, face masks, and vehicle chases

Ensure that MPD release full stop-and-frisk data as mandated by the NEAR Act Demand MPD end the use of invasive surveillance tools Hold MPD accountable for not following existing law requiring that it track and report how often MPD shares information on DC residents with immigration enforcement and the number of DC residents detained because of immigration status

Remember that not only are there hundreds of witnesses and videos documenting MPD handing people over to ICE, patrolling with ICE, and riding in the same cars as ICE-there are in-depth investigations detailing MPD-ICE collaboration published by both NYT and the Washington Post

Would be great if other councilmembers stopped by @BrianneKNadeau's roundtable to hear testimony from traumatized and disgusted DC residents about MPD cooperation with feds, esp @ChmnMendelson @AnitaBondsDC @CMBrookePinto @kenyanmcduffie @CMCharlesAllen @CMRobertWhiteDC

Finally the DC Council is holding a hearing on the collaboration between DC MPD and ICE and the @MayorBowser is not only refusing to show up but won’t send anyone from the executive to defend her truly abhorrent cooperation with fascists terrorizing DC. Resign already.

This is a reminder that Muriel Bowser is up for election in November 2026. Don't forget how she threw DC residents under the bus to cozy up to Trump.

Appreciate this reporting from @emmauber7 but baffled that it doesn't mention that this also violates DC law, not just MPD policy. The law was significantly weakened by the Council last year but still only permits car chases if "immediately necessary to protect another person"

The US Park Police has started 10 police pursuits for traffic or non-violent crimes in the last three weeks. 6 have ended with crashes. wapo.st/3JZYvBq

Ten car chases. Six crashes. Park Police have new rules in Trump’s D.C.

U.S. Park Police have initiated at least 10 car chases in the past three weeks as part of President Donald Trump’s D.C. surge, court records show.

Bowser did not directly respond on whether the results will be shared with the federal gov., potentially allowing it to target encampments. “We don’t expect that we’re gonna have homeless encampments, and we are gonna work to make sure people can come into shelter,” she said.

"My constituents are getting assaulted and disappeared off the street and that's cool by me and I'd actually like more of it" -- @MayorBowser
Martin Austermuhle@maustermuhle27 Aug 2025
Replying to @maustermuhle
Bowser seems to hint that she'd be OK with the federal surge continuing beyond the initial 30 days. "I think we're going to have officers. We want to enhance our officer presence," she says.
