Hundreds of D.C. residents ran federal forces out of the Columbia Heights neighborhood, yelling, “ICE GO HOME.”
This is how you do it.
This is people power.
This is resistance.
The Trump regime will lose because—across this country—we the people reject their fascist vision for our nation.

DHS appears to accidentally confirm CNN's reporting in an unhinged reply to MeidasTouch on X, noting that "by Tuesday, FEMA had deployed" staffers.
This aligns with CNN's reporting that Noem didn't authorize FEMA's deployment of Urban Search and Rescue teams until Monday.
