This Week in the World: Trump's D.C. Takeover Shows Threat of Militarism at Home and Abroad

We are deeply alarmed by President Donald Trump’s authoritarian moves this week to deploy troops into Washington, D.C. and seize control of the district’s police.

This is unprecedented, unnecessary, undemocratic, and unjustifiable.

As an organization based in D.C., we reject President Trump’s offensive and baseless lies about the vibrant communities here that many of our staff love and belong to.
