A bunch of veterans ran off #ICE at Union Station, and then educated the #NationalGuard about their right and duty to refuse illegal orders. Now there is also no National Guard presence at the station. These #veterans say they will continue their sit ins across the city until all federal forces are out of #WashingtonDC.
When you see troops on the streets of Washington DC … troops deployed for no reason … that’s what every other shithole dictatorship looks like.
It’s Trump’s dream to be the second coming of Hitler.

The #Transportation Secy claimed #UnionStation, located within walking distance of the US Capitol, had “fallen into disrepair” when it should be a “point of pride” for the city.
#Trump said last week he wants $2 billion from #Congress to *beautify* #Washington as part of his *crackdown* on the city. Trump has sent thousands of #NationalGuard #troops & federal LEOs into Washington in a bid to fight *violent crime* he claimed had strangled the city.
#Transportation Secy Sean Duffy announced Wednesday that his department is taking management of #UnionStation, the main transportation hub in #Washington, away from #Amtrak, in another example of how the #FederalGovernment is exerting its #power over the nation’s capital.

Monday's order calls for the creation of "an online portal for Americans with law enforcement or other relevant backgrounds and experience." Agency heads then "shall each deputize the members of this unit to enforce federal law."

Democratic leaders look to derail #Trump as he threatens to send #NationalGuard to more #cities
#JBPritzker took a water taxi along the #Chicago Riverwalk, past one of Trump’s downtown towers. The gleaming & heavily trafficked tourist district was a deliberate backdrop on the day the #Illinois governor directed a defiant message: “Mr. President, do not come to Chicago. You are neither wanted here nor needed here.”

“thirteen of the top twenty cities in homicide rates have Republican governors. None of these cities is Chicago.
Eight of the top ten states with the highest homicide rates are led by Republicans. None of those states is Illinois.”
