In a horrifying incident, Edward Coristine, nicknamed ‘Big Balls’ and a prominent member of Trump’s Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), was assaulted by a group of teens around 3 a.m. Sunday in DC’s Logan Circle. The attackers tried to carjack him and his partner, but Coristine heroically pushed her to safety before facing the group alone.
The attack unfolded as the couple was approached near their car, with the teens making threats to take it.
‘We will not stand for this chaos in our capital,’ Trump declared, pushing for a federal takeover of DC.
Public reaction has been intense, with conservative commentator Ben Shapiro tweeting, ‘This is why DC needs federal control. Lawlessness must end!’
What do you think—should the federal government step in to restore order in DC, or is this overreach? Let’s hear your take.
