The takeover of Washington, D.C. by the President Donald Trump continues this week.

We got ICE officers detaining delivery drivers across the city. We got federal police officers from

We're going to clean up Washington Free, D.C., and we're going to make it a crime-free zone. There's not going to be any crime. We're going to have laws, but we're going to have to take it over.
