The DC I know is worth fighting for. I’m Janeese Lewis George, and I’m running for Mayor.

Columbia Heights just told ICE to get out of our neighborhood. People on foot, in cars, on balconies, all telling them to leave our people the fuck alone

Open now: DC's first LGBTQ+ communal senior housing! 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️ Mary's House is a safe and affordable home where seniors can age with pride, respect, and grace in their own community. This project is a big win for Ward 7 and for the city as a whole.

“We were under the impression that they were focusing on trying to find criminals. And this is just a whole new level of harassment to our hard-working, law-abiding employees," says the owner of Millie's.

🚨UPDATE: @MigrantInsider has learned that some DC area restaurants are now locking their doors and putting a sign in the window telling to knock or call to be let in. PLUS, DoorDash/UberEats drivers are being encouraged to stay off the streets today / tomorrow to avoid ICE.
🚨SCOOP: @MigrantInsider has confirmed that ICE agents stopped by Central Michel Richard when the restaurant opened at 11am today in downtown DC. The agents claimed to be doing an I-9 inspection (which requires a three day notice), but had no warrant so were told to leave. The agents left an I-9 inspection notice and said they would return in three days. No one was detained.

Breaking: ICE agents are targeting DC restaurants in what is shaping up to be one of the city’s most high-profile examples yet of President Trump’s immigration crackdown. Millie's and Pupatella were among the restaurants to get a visit on Tuesday. washingtonian.com/2025/05/06…
