Pink-Shirted Guy Who Threw a Sandwich at a D.C. Fed Has a Day Job, and, Oh Boy

Things just keep getting worse for the pink-shirted, silly sandwich boy who threw his footlong sub at a federal officer watching over Washington streets this week. Now we know what he does for a living. Hold on, make that what he did for a living. 

If you missed this D.C. streets melodrama, let’s bring you up to speed. 

A D.C. street videographer originally captured the incident on Monday night. The videographer, whose handle is “gap4l,” watched in amusement with his friends as the man, dressed in a pink shirt and shorts, became unraveled entirely when he became triggered by seeing police and federal officers patrolling the D.C. streets. 

The man, who had just spent 13 bucks for a footlong sammy, became unraveled when he saw the officers cross the street. With a footlong in his left hand, the pink-shirted man began screaming profanity at the cops, telling them, “F*** you!”

Thinking better of the profanity, apparently, he began a barrage of “shame! shame! shame!” as the nonplussed officers looked back at the crazy man while they crossed the street to post themselves on the opposite corner. 

The sandwich holder walked away from the officers and down the opposite block, but, apparently overcome with rage, he did an about-face and stomped back toward the cops. Before he crossed the street to confront them, he asked the videographer about the vehicles “the fascists” drove to get there and found out that they were in “all those white cars.” That’s when the pink-shirted sandwich boy crossed the street to pepper the officers with profane name-calling. 

Pointing at the officers, he cupped his hand to announce to anyone listening that “the fascists” were present. Clearly, he hoped to gather a crowd to intimidate the officers. Realizing his announcement fell on deaf ears, he confronted officers again and, in a fit of pique, threw his sandwich, hitting an officer in the chest.

Washington, DC Mayor Muriel Bowser Travels to Martha’s Vineyard for ‘Family Commitment’ as Trump Handles City’s Crime Problem

This week as Trump is using federal forces to deal with the out of control crime problems in Washington, DC, Mayor Muriel Bowser departed for Martha’s Vineyard in Massachusetts for a ‘family commitment.’

What is it with Democrats and Martha’s Vineyard? It seems to be a favorite destination for members of the party.

Bowser is expected to return to DC on Friday so maybe she just needed to be at an event or something.

FOX News reports:

DC mayor travels to Martha’s Vineyard amid Trump’s federalized crime crackdown of city

Washington, D.C., Mayor Muriel Bowser is out of town Thursday after traveling to Martha’s Vineyard for a family matter, Fox News has learned.

The Democrat was not in the District Thursday, and a source confirmed she traveled north to the Massachusetts island vacation hot spot.

The mayor was traveling for a “family commitment,” according to her office. She’s expected back in the city Friday.

“The mayor has a family commitment and had to pick up her daughter,” the mayor’s office said when asked about her trip to Martha’s Vineyard. “She will return to the District tomorrow.”

Bowser made the trip to the Massachusetts island after President Donald Trump federalized the city’s police department Monday after a spate of high-profile crimes.

Some people are suggesting she could do more good by staying in Massachusetts.

A man went to prison for assaulting me. DC Police crime stats show he was never arrested

Five years ago, I was violently attacked and sexually assaulted in broad daylight in Washington, D.C., by a homeless man. He served time in federal prison for what he did to me. But if you look for evidence that the attack happened in the city’s crime statistics, you won’t find it.

The truth of what happened to me and the D.C. government’s role in it is as much a public scandal as it is a personal trauma. D.C. police covered up the unspeakable wrong that the stranger did to me. Even though a judge sentenced my attacker to hard time in prison, D.C. police leadership would rather deceive the public and appear less dangerous than list mine and countless other sexual assaults on their website.

The extent of crime in D.C. has been debated by the Left and Right since President Donald Trump announced on Monday that he would take federal action to crack down on problems in the District of Columbia.

But if the public wants to have an honest conversation about crime in D.C., the MPD will first have to be honest about how prevalent crime is. Without MPD’s honesty about the crimes that it has chosen to hide from its public-facing stats page, the White House cannot get an accurate picture of how bad the problem actually is and adequately fix it.

For me, the story began long before that attack. I was a Washingtonian for seven years. I was saving up money to buy a condo and planned to spend the next few decades in Washington, the intersection of politics and media. D.C.’s crime problem was something you lived with. You took Ubers and Lyfts, told others if you were walking after dark so they knew when you were home, and knew to be aware of your surroundings, almost to the point of paranoia. (Ladies?)

On a Saturday morning in 2020, I walked out of my apartment on Capitol Hill to mail a package at a post office several blocks from the U.S. Capitol. I put on my black sweatshirt and black sweatpants then headed out the door.

I never made it to the post office.

DC’s fake crime stats are even worse than you think…

If you want to know how bad things really are in The Swamp, here’s your answer: city leaders have been cooking the books to make crime look less out of control than it actually is. That’s right, while American families are living in fear, dealing with theft, assaults, and violent attacks, police brass in the nation’s capital were directing officers to misclassify crimes. They were told to downgrade felonies to misdemeanors so they could protect the left-wing political class from having to face the ugly truth about their soft-on-crime policies and failed leadership.

This is exactly the kind of cover-up you’d expect from a Dem-run city, right? Instead of admitting and fixing the problem, they bury it, spin it, and punish anyone who dares to speak out. That’s what makes this story so important: a whistleblower inside the department exposed the scheme and was promptly fired for it. She sued the city, and they’ve now “quietly” settled with her.

And now that President Trump has stepped in to take control of the soaring crime nightmare, this story couldn’t come at a worse time for DC’s political elite, who are still out there spinning fairytales that crime is under control in DC.

ASTROTURF: Company That Provides Paid Protesters Reports 400 Percent Increase as Trump Cracks Down on DC Crime

There have been quite a few protests in Washington, DC since Trump announced that he was going to crack down on crime in the city, but it’s hard to know if any of it is real or not.

A company that provides protesters for a price is reporting a 400 percent increase in demand.

Of course, the liberal media has been all to happy to report on the protests as if they’re completely organic.

FOX News reports:

DC paid protester requests surge 400% amid Trump’s federal takeover of city police: crowd company

A crowd rental company has seen a massive uptick in inquiries regarding its services in Washington, D.C., amid President Donald Trump’s move to federalize the police force in the nation’s capital.

“Right now, D.C. inquiries are up roughly 400% compared to the same period in 2024,” Crowds on Demand CEO Adam Swart told Fox News Digital, adding that the time period he is referencing is May to July 2024.

The company always sees a spike in requests during what Swart calls “high-stakes political moments.”

“A large share are focused on opposing Trump’s policies in Washington and raising alarms about government overreach,” Swart said. “We’re weighing those offers carefully – because while there’s truth in saying D.C.’s local government has been an abject failure in keeping citizens safe, there’s also a real danger in putting too much power in federal hands. That balance of power matters.”

Swart said the “vast majority” of people at political or advocacy events in D.C. are in some way paid.

“Most people don’t know this, but many protesters are literally on the payroll – Capitol Hill staffers from both parties are often expected to show up at rallies and protests on their own time,” he said. “So yes, most attendees are being paid or are there because it’s part of their job. That doesn’t mean they don’t support the cause – but it does mean these crowds aren’t as ‘organic’ as they appear on TV.”

Is anyone surprised by this?

MSNBC’s Scarborough: Dems Secretly Support Trump’s Federal Police Takeover

MSNBC host Joe Scarborough said Tuesday that numerous Democrats have privately expressed support for President Donald Trump’s decision to assume federal control of the Metropolitan Police Department in Washington, D.C.

Speaking on “Morning Joe,” Scarborough said he has heard from “so many” Democrats in recent days who believe the federal government should have intervened in the city’s policing long ago.

“This is a fascinating story because so many people have been calling me over the past couple of days, going, you know, like Washington, should have gotten involved years ago. This place is dangerous, it’s a mess, it’s a wreck and whatever,” Scarborough said.

“And then they’ll go on Twitter and go ‘this is the worst outrage of all time.’ Which I understand, it’s like people need to express their concerns about Donald Trump going too far.”

Left-wing dark-money megadonors, including George Soros, contribute $20M to groups funding protests against Trump’s DC crime crackdown

Several lefty, dark money organizations, including George Soros’, contributed more than $20 million to groups funding protests against President Trump’s crime crackdown in Washington, DC. 

Free DC, a “fiscally sponsored special project” of progressive nonprofits Community Change and Community Change Action, brought 150 demonstrators near the White House Monday to protest Trump’s plan to deploy National Guard troops in the district and federalize the city’s police department

“Do not obey in advance” and “Take up space” are among Free DC’s “guiding principles,” and the group urges supporters to “go outside at 8:00 PM and bang pots and pans, sing, chant, or make noise for five minutes” every night “of this occupation.” 

Free DC has scheduled multiple events since Monday’s anti-Trump protest, including a “Cop Watch Training,” suggesting further protests are planned amid Trump’s effort to make DC the “safest, cleanest and most beautiful cities anywhere in the world” – by ramping up law enforcement efforts and removing homeless encampments from public places. 

Community Change and Community Change Action, the groups bankrolling Free DC’s activism campaign, have been the beneficiaries of millions of dollars in donations from hedge-fund tycoon George Soros’ Open Society Foundations and Tides Foundation, and the dark-money Arabella Advisors network, according to an analysis shared with The Post.

MSNBC Contributor Claims He’s More Afraid of Climate Change Than Crime in Washington, DC

If you needed more proof that MSNBC is not a serious news network, you’re in luck.

During a recent appearance, frequent guest Anand Giridharadas tried to downplay crime in Washington, DC by listing the things he is more concerned about, such as climate change, losing his vote, whatever that means, and other imaginary problems.

At one point, he manages to throw in a concern about the middle class, which is funny because the left abandoned them years ago.

He says that there is a crime problem in DC but qualifies it as a small one and accuses Trump of being an authoritarian. How original.

Transcript via Real Clear Politics:

ANAND GIRIDHARADAS: Crime is real. It is blown out of proportion. People are feeling much more unsafe than they statistically are—but the feeling matters. People deserve to be safe, but they also deserve to feel safe.

I think it is true that Democrats have sometimes ignored or lectured people, holding a spreadsheet of statistics. That said, it’s really important to be clear about what is going on here: a relatively small crime problem is being used for specific authoritarian purposes that we know and understand.

Let’s be clear—D.C. does have one really big crime problem, which was the January 6th insurrection incited by the current president of the United States. His first act in coming back was pardoning all the people who tried to overturn constitutional order in Washington, D.C.

When I go to D.C., I’m not afraid of losing my wallet so much as I’m afraid of losing my vote. I’m not afraid of losing my wallet so much as I’m afraid that my children’s freedom to breathe will be stolen in a world where climate change policy is nonexistent. I’m afraid that the future of middle-class people will be stolen by the very things you were talking about cutting—the safety net, Medicaid, rural hospitals.

If you watch the video below, you’ll notice that Joe Scarborough jumps in at the end, trying to save the segment. It doesn’t work.

Yikes: DEI D.C. Police Chief Doesn’t Know What The Term “Chain Of Command” Means

Washington D.C. Police Chief Pamela A. Smith was humiliated earlier today after revealing that she apparently doesn’t know what the term “chain of command” means.

During a press briefing, a reporter asked Smith “Do you know what the chain of command is now?” referring to President Trump having deployed National Guard troops to the capital to restore law and order.

Smith looked puzzled and responded “What does that mean?”

How does a person get a job as a police officer, let alone Police Chief without knowing what that means?

Former Cap Police Chief publicly confirms Pelosi helped stage J6…

Nancy Pelosi is probably kicking herself over her most recent X post, because it opened a can of worms she never wanted spilled. But TDS got in the way, and she couldn’t help herself. In a desperate effort to smear President Trump’s plan to clean up DC’s deadly streets, Pelosi took to X and claimed that Trump “delayed” deploying the National Guard on January 6… a claim that instantly blew back on her, in a big way, dredging up an old debate about her role that day.

But even worse for Pelosi was the blistering response from former Capitol Police Chief Sund, which confirmed what most of us already knew – that Pelosi’s actions and decisions shaped what happened on January 6.

Here’s what she said in her X post.

Nancy Pelosi:

Donald Trump delayed deploying the National Guard on January 6th when our Capitol was under violent attack and lives were at stake. Now, he’s activating the DC Guard to distract from his incompetent mishandling of tariffs, health care, education and immigration — just to name a few blunders.

Of course, Pelosi is talking about President Trump’s big, beautiful plan to take back our nation’s capital from the inept liberal leaders who’ve let criminals run the show. Trump has deployed FBI agents and the National Guard to clean up the streets. This move comes as crime in DC is soaring. It’s so bad that police have been handing out AirTags to residents so they can track their cars when they inevitably get stolen.
