The Nov. 28 incident was one of a record 204 suspected hate crimes in the capital last year. The true number is probably higher because, experts say, many hate crimes are not reported to police. Even so, the District has the highest rate per capita of any major city in the US

Remember Jesse Liu, a Trump US Attny? The numbers of prosecutions have plummeted under her watch while the number of hates crimes, 2/3 were not arrested.

The city’s year of hatred began in January with a ride-share that descended into racist violence. It ended 12 months later in
an alley, where a bisexual man was assaulted with a frying pan.

“It’s always the same with you Spanish, Latin American people,” one female Lyft passenger allegedly told another on Jan. 17, 2018, before punching her in the face. “You come to this country and steal from us.”
April Two men walked hand-in-hand on the busy sidewalk toward an Uber, a group of men bumped into Creason. When Link followed them and demanded to know why they had jostled his friend, the group attacked.

“You f---ing fags,” one of the men said, before punching Link in the face
The 61 anti-gay and 33 anti-transgender incidents investigated by D.C. police last year easily eclipse those in the 18 other big cities Levin has studied, including New York, with 8.5 million people, and Los Angeles, with 4 million.
In 2018, a gay man was threatened in the locker room of his gym. A woman came home to find her gay pride flag smeared with feces. A lesbian was called a “dyke” and body slammed by her own brother who said “if she wanted to act like a man, he would treat her like a man,”
Rudolph Williams was dancing at a nightclub on Feb. 3, 2018, when another clubgoer asked him to move. Williams, who is openly gay, responded that he was “just listening to the music.” Suddenly, he said, he was struck in the head with a champagne bottle.
Another transgender woman at a homeless shelter downtown found a piece of paper in her locker that read: “BITCH THIS WOMEN’S SHELTER LEAVE BEFORE WE KILL YOU, FAGGOT.”

Transgender people were pistol-whipped and spit upon, attacked while taking out the trash and visiting the library. National Center for Transgender Equality received 3 threats in less than 24 hrs, including one promising to
“rid the earth of scum and garbage like you.”

Two days later, before the victims of America’s deadliest anti-Semitic attack had been buried, the phone rang at the Washington Hebrew Congregation.

“I’m so glad that 11 people died at the other temple,” the caller told a
receptionist. “I wanted you to know.”
In Washington, the call on Oct. 29, 2018, was one of 17 suspected anti-Semitic hate crimes last year,

Police also investigated reports of seven anti-Muslim incidents — up from two in 2017 — and one anti-Hindu incident
In October, a man came to the headquarters of the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) and started yelling, “I hate Muslims,” according to a police report. When asked to leave, he made a throat-cutting gesture at a receptionist.
A deaf student at Gallaudet University reported being stalked for months online by a man who mocked her for being Muslim and told her “Trump is going to kill you.”
A Palestinian American, was driving to work in downtown D.C. when she spotted a woman panhandling on the side of road. As she rolled down her window to give her money the woman noticed Amer’s hijab.

“You f---ing terrorist,” the woman screamed, “Go back to your country.”
She recently stopped wearing her hijab, a decision that led some family members and friends to question her faith.

“After years of abuse — mental, emotional and physical — now I’m in the clear,” she said. “If this brings judgment, it’s between me and God.”
There was no such option for the synagogues that started receiving threats in March 2018. The first target was Tifereth Israel Congregation . Then a male caller threatened to sexually assault a female employee at the National Synagogue across the street.
In October, after the deadly attack on the synagogue in Pittsburgh, the Washington Hebrew Congregation received a flurry of voice mails that said: “Go [to] hell Jew,” “Hitler’s trash” and “F--- your Torah,”
At least a dz times last year, African Americans were called the n-word during suspected hate crimes.

1 man heard it as he was spit upon; another as he was attacked with a bike lock; a 3rd as he was driving when a man in a truck next to him shouted it while brandishing a handgun
In April 2018, a woman visiting the once-segregated Banneker swimming pool — built for blacks in 1934 — returned to her car to find her tires and seats slashed and “N-----” scrawled on the hood.
There were 75 suspected hate crimes in 2018 motivated by race or ethnicity, up from 65 in 2017, The Post found: 26 against African Americans, 24 against Hispanics, 15 against whites, six against Asians, three against people perceived to be of Arab descent
An Indian woman was spat upon in a Chinese restaurant in Adams Morgan by the director of a Polish American cultural org. Two Asian women were allegedly attacked on separate occasions while shopping. A woman became angry at employees at a Popeyes chicken restaurant for speaking
Spanish and began throwing things at them.

A Latina told police that a stranger grabbed her buttocks near the Mall, then told her to “get out of the U.S.” and “go back to her country.” Two Hispanic men were approached on U Street late one night by two strangers who called them
“MS-13,” a reference to the gang, before punching and kicking them

The day after the midterm election, a Hispanic woman was crossing the street when the driver of a car told her to “Go back to Mexico,” according to another report. The woman then told the motorist, who was black,
to “Go back to Africa,” prompting him to get out of his car and punch her in the mouth.

For the 7th-grader, the racist attack during her walk home from school in November deeply shook the girl , who had only recently moved to the neighborhood.

“The first three nights, she
woke me up, screaming,” her mother said. “She dreamed that the man was following her again, or that he was in our house.”

The girl said she initially distanced herself from white friends. She told only one classmate about the incident.

This is our America now. MAGA

5 days before Trump became president in 2017 a mgr at a bank branch in Cairo received an unusual letter from an organization linked to the Egyptian intelligence service. It asked the bank to “kindly withdraw” nearly $10M from the orgs account in cash
🎁
wapo.st/3SxAkvO
Federal investigators learned of the withdrawal in 2019. The discovery intensified a secret crim inv that had begun 2 yrs earlier with classified US intel indicating that Egyptian President El-Sisi sought to give Trump $10 million to boost his 2016 presidential campaign
Since receiving the intel about Sisi the DOJ had been examining whether money moved from Cairo to Trump

Investigators had also sought to learn if $ from Sisi might have factored into Trump’s decision in the final days of his run to inject his campaign with $10M of his own money

The state of Trump:

Washington, D.C. GOP hate Trump. Not only did Trump lose the election to Nikki Haley, but in a city of 700,000 people, Trump received only 676 votes

Trump has made clear the feeling is mutual. At a time when political parties usually staff up,
@marcelias Image
Trump’s hand-picked hatchet man fired 60 RNC staffers across several departments last week

Trump is waging a nonstop war on mail-in voting and has made it clear the RNC needs to do its part. Who better than to carry that out by election denier Christina Bobb
Just yesterday the RNC sued that state of MI in federal court in order to purge voter roles. Yea, it's personal and they're coming for the swing states
