A D.C. grand jury has refused to return an indictment against a man accused of assaulting federal law enforcement during a confrontation in Washington, D.C. //
Compare and contrast this with the alacrity with which D.C. grand juries handed out felony indictments for people merely walking into the Capitol on January 6. Had either Dunn or Reid committed those acts on January 6, 2021, they would have been facing a decade or more in prison. //
The reluctance of DC judges and juries to support President Trump in tamping down violence in D.C. Former RedStater Bill Shipley, who goes by the handle @shipwreckedcrew on X, has a solid idea.

The case is building for eliminating the District Court for DC, and making it part of the District of Maryland.
You cannot have a District Court that has a juror pool so extremely partisan that objective evidence is simply disregarded based on politics.

The old saying is that a grand jury will indict a ham sandwich. But somehow this one didn’t indict the DOJ lawyer who threw sandwich at federal agent. https://nytimes.com/2025/08/27/us/politics/trump-sandwich-assault-indictment-justice-department.html
