Situation on 14th St and W St. NW, with federal agents -- no specific agency identified -- pulling cars over for checks. They arrested a Black woman in this car.
BIG crowd of people shouting at police.
"Fuck you!"
"What is wrong with you!"
"You don't need to terrorize people like this!"
Trump really has Bowser figured out. She's never been comfortable with the more left-wing politics of the council; she vetoed fare evasion decrim, delayed the sweeping reform bill so that Congress could kill it. And all she cares about is her football stadium legacy item.

Letβs be clear about whatβs happening. Violent crime in DC is at a 30-year low. There is no emergency. This is a test run. If the courts, Congress, and the rest of us let him get away with this, heβll do it in every city that doesnβt capitulate to him.

The request from the US Secret Service was made to βsupport safe navigationβ of the US vice-presidentβs security detail for an August outing on the Little Miami River, according to a statement by the US army corps of engineers (USACE). Vance was spotted in the south-western Ohio area on 2 August, his 41st birthday, according to social media posts that noted he was seen canoeing on the river, a tributary that Caesar Creek Lake feeds into. One source with knowledge of the matter who communicated with the Guardian anonymously alleged that the outflow request for the Caesar Creek Lake was not just to support the vice-presidentβs Secret Service detail, but also to create βideal kayaking conditionsβ. The Guardian could not independently confirm this specific claim.
What good is being VP if you can't abuse your power to have the Army Corps of Engineers making your kayaking trip more ideal by changing the waterflow of a lake?

Trump Weighs Getting Involved in New York City Mayor Race By Nicholas Fandos, Jeremy W. Peters, Maggie Haberman and Katherine Rosman (New York Times) -- The possibility that the president will seek to intercede could inject an element of unpredictability into an already fractious contest. President Trump may have moved out of New York City, but he has privately discussed whether to intercede in its fractious race for mayor to try to stop Zohran Mamdani, the Democratic nominee, according to eight people briefed on the discussions. In recent weeks, Mr. Trump has quizzed a Republican congressman and New York businessmen about who in the crowded field of candidates, which includes Mayor Eric Adams and former Gov. Andrew M. Cuomo, has the best chance of beating Mr. Mamdani, the leftist front-runner. The president has been briefed by Mark Penn, a pollster who has worked for Bill and Hillary Clinton, and Andrew Stein, a former New York City Council president and decades-long friend of Mr. Trump, on a range of polling that showed Mr. Cuomo could still be competitive as an independent candidate. Both men have pushed Mr. Cuomo as the best candidate despite his loss in the Democratic primary, including in a recent Wall Street JournalΒ op-ed. One of Mr. Pennβs firms did extensive work for a pro-Cuomo super PAC in the primary. And in a previously undisclosed call in recent weeks, Mr. Trump spoke about the race directly with Mr. Cuomo, an old associate and foil, according to three people briefed on the call, who were not authorized to discuss it.
NYT reporting that the President is talking to Cuomo about the NYC mayoral campaign, to which I can only respond: masterful gambit sir!
