She said, now we have only less than 24 hours to get out. As she threw her clothing out of her tent, I liked it here. They keep shoving us off from place to place, making it so we don't have anywhere to go. The Post also spoke to the president of Miriam's Kitchen, which is a big nonprofit here in D.C. that provides services for the homeless.
And he said that it wasn't even clear, like he wasn't even sure if the city followed proper protocols with this hasty encampment clearing at Trump's direction. Encampment residents are meant to be given two weeks notice, but people who were cleared said that they only learned about that action within 24 hours. And so... I think that's part of the issue here.

What you're actually doing is just traumatizing people who are already vulnerable and then forcing them to go elsewhere, exactly like that woman told The Post.

But I think that's exactly how Trump thinks about this issue. It's just like looks bad and unseemly to him. So I don't care where they go. I don't care how you do it. Just I don't want to be looking at them.

Exactly. And like he is encroaching on how our city is run. Right. And so like if that is the ethos that you have, I don't want to see these gross people. I don't care where they go.

Exactly. And I think that's what that's like the name of the game with the way that Trump has already been meddling in the way that D.C. runs its local affairs. This next example, I got to say, it really gets to me. So D.C.

So the suit was initially filed by the former D.C. attorney general, Carl A. Racine. It initially marks the first effort by a government agency to hold the individuals and organizations civilly liable for violence at the Capitol on January 6th.
