Thousands marched through Washington, D.C., demanding an end to the federal takeover of local policing as National Guard troops and federal agents entered their fourth week patrolling the streets. Protesters, carrying bilingual “End the D.C. Occupation” banners, pushed back on the dominance of federal forces in a city that already lacks full political representation. Organizers, including Home Rule advocates and the ACLU, described the march as the most organized yet in weeks of unrest. D.C. residents and activists decried the deployment as undemocratic and symptomatic of authoritarian overreach. With mounting pressure, the city anticipates an imminent expiration of Trump’s emergency police directive.
