| 1641118749062316046 | One of the most egregious crimes occurred in D.C. without any oversight. Look at these pictures. Some of these babies were born alive. @councilofdc agreed Dr. Santangelo’s medical license must be revoked. https://t.co/rdwdTkFNIE | 493 |

| 1640838011335090177 | Can we all agree that getting stabbed in the head and lungs by a random person on a busy commercial corridor in the middle of the day is not normal. It is pure insanity. Why do most on the @councilofdc continue to ignore? https://t.co/aqoLRVEnup | 23 |
| 1640801537759797249 | I remain baffled that the DC Council and the Mayor continue to be silent on this kind of nonsense running rampant in DC.

| 1641147100661415941 | When you rewrite the criminal code, it would make a lot of sense to include the very rank-and-file law enforcement officers tasked with enforcing the law in the conversation. But for the @councilofdc? @DCPoliceUnion Chairman @G_Pem explains to @RepLangworthy: I don’t think they… https://t.co/F3vE4QaIoN https://t.co/UfUhBywrD7 | 17 |
| 1639246035494096898 | From a housing justice perspective, @MayorBowser's budget is a giant step backwards. We must push @councilofdc to fund significant gaps in housing to end homelessness, ERAP, vouchers, and much more. https://t.co/yJfFS7ZFcL via @AlexKomaWCP | 13 |
| 1639978687117373440 | DC is averaging about 18 motor vehicle thefts PER DAY!! @RepJamesComer, please ask @charlesallen and @ChmnMendelson why they held ZERO hearings on motor vehicle thefts or violent crime last year in the @councilofdc. https://t.co/MdFQu6zZtF | 11 |
| 1641300515710435330 | This occurred during the Oversight hearing. Many posted asking why MPD didn’t use their vehicle to stop this person. @councilofdc approved legislation to prohibit officers from going after car thieves but still expects officers to put their lives on the line. https://t.co/wA1RkTwxXa | 9 |
| 1641170313428729858 | Criminals with zero free and police officers not allowed to engage is a recipe for disaster. This summer is going to be out of control. Thanks, @councilofdc! https://t.co/xlIsnu33Go | 9 |
