Hill Rag DC

Cloudscape and rainbow over the Capitol just now. @popville.bsky.social @capitalweather.bsky.social @thehillishome.com @hillragdc.bsky.social

A poster for the last run’s hundred anniversary event June 15, 2025 at 1 PM. Reenactment begins at 635 North Carolina Ave. SE. and ends in Lincoln Park. On the poster is a sketch depiction of the last run, with the US capital in the background and an old-fashioned fire engine cart being pulled by three white horses as the driver holds desperately onto the reins

This Sunday (Fathers Day!) at 1p — cheer on the @dcfireems.bsky.social as they reenact the Last Run of the Horses, using a cosmetically preserved 1905 American LaFrance horse-drawn steam fire engine. All are welcome (re)live DC History!! www.hillrag.com/2025/06/09/c...

Thanks to everyone who turned out tonight, to @cmcharlesallen.bsky.social & CM Wendell Felder, to our co-sponsors @hillragdc.bsky.social & Ward 7 Dems, & our host The Strand restaurant. We'll have video posted to our YouTube by the end of the week. www.youtube.com/@ward6demsdc

ICE WATCH 101: DC BYSTANDER GUIDE 1. VERIFY THAT IT IS ICE • It is important that you try & verify that it's ICE. DC is uniquely overpoliced - apart from MPD, we have 30+ federal law enforcement agencies in the District. It can be difficult to tell them apart. • Look at their badges, arm patches, vests/ jackets, and cars. ICE vehicles can be marked as ICE or DHS. 2. DOCUMENT BUT DO NOT ENGAGE • Record the date, time, and location of the incident. Be as specitic as possible! • Take pictures and video. Try to capture pictures of the officers and their vehicles. Do NOT post the photos or video on social media. • Other relevant info to document: How many agents are there? What are they doing? • Do NOT engage. You could end up making things worse for the person being targeted. 3. CALL OUR HOTLINE: 202-335-1183

In light of the DC raids we want to reshare our ICE watch 101 graphics. Reminder to verify, document, and then report to our hotline.

Entrance of the Waldorf Astoria Washington DC, adorned with a large, blossoming pink floral archway. A blue and white cherry picker lift extends towards the arch, its bucket carrying two workers who appear to be adjusting the floral arrangement. Above the entrance, a white banner with the black "W" logo and "WALDORF ASTORIA WASHINGTON DC" in smaller text hangs prominently. American flags flank the banner on either side. The building's facade is light-colored stone with arched doorways and windows. In the foreground, the brick-paved area shows a partially completed section of the floral arch lying on the ground. Several people are visible in the periphery, including one individual walking away from the camera on the left.

it's friday.✌🏽 if you made it to today, keep going.♥️
