DC Residents Are Saying The Same Thing About This Clip Of DEA Officers Patrolling The National Mall
On Monday, Donald Trump announced he would be taking over the Washington DC police department and deploying National Guard troops there. One day before that, on Sunday, DC news anchor Lorenzo Hall took this video of DEA police officers patrolling the National Mall: LorenzoHall/Twitter: @LorenzoHall Related: There were a bunch of *viral* responses to the clip. DC political analyst and journalist Tom Sherwood called it "Basically [a] meaningless stroll." Related: @johnmconnollyjr said, "I've lived in DC for 10 years. The only crime I've ever seen on the National Mall was when a mob ransacked the Capitol on January 6, 2021 at the direction of the man who lost the 2020 presidential election." And Aaron Fritschner the Deputy Chief of Staff for Virginia Rep. Don Beyer, pointed out, "The Metropolitan Police Department tracks and publishes the location of all crimes committed in the DC; the map grid section where this video was shot on the National Mall near the Lincoln Memorial has recorded zero (0) crimes so far in 2025: Related: The responses get pretty funny from there: One person said, "6 guys in full uniform on a stretch of the mall where the biggest threat is the mama ducks defending their ducklings from my dog." Another person joked, "You know what screams 'high crime area'? White women jogging." Related: And this person said, "This is cosplay. this is drag. this is banned from entering Florida public schools." Basically, everyone is like: "If you know DC you understand how tremendously goofy this is." Also in BuzzFeed: Also in BuzzFeed: Also in BuzzFeed:

Army sergeant charged with attempted murder in the shootings of 5 Fort Stewart soldiers
Army Base Lockdown SAVANNAH, Ga. (AP) — A U.S. Army sergeant accused of shooting five fellow soldiers at a Georgia base was charged Tuesday with attempted murder, aggravated assault and domestic violence as the Army revealed that one of the victims was the suspect's romantic partner. The charges were issued as Sgt. Quornelius Radford made his first appearance Tuesday in a military courtroom at Fort Stewart, where officials say he opened fire with a personal handgun on members of his supply unit. The hearing officer ordered Radford, 28, to remain in pretrial confinement. Radford was arrested Aug. 6 after officials say soldiers disarmed and restrained him until military police arrived. All five of the wounded soldiers survived the attack. Radford was charged with six counts of attempted murder — the sixth referring to a soldier he shot at and missed, said Michelle McCaskill, a spokesperson for the Army's Office of Special Trial Counsel, which is prosecuting Radford. Radford also faces six counts of aggravated assault and a single count of domestic violence. 'That charge is there because one of the victims was the intimate partner of the accused,' McCaskill said. She said she did not know whether Radford's partner was among the five people he wounded. The Army has not released the victims' names. Fort Stewart officials have declined to comment on the shooter's motives. Under military law, attempted murder carries a potential penalty of life imprisonment. Radford was represented by Army defense attorneys at his hearing Tuesday. Phone and email messages left with Fort Stewart's Trial Defense Service were not immediately returned. Now that he's been charged, Radford faces pretrial proceedings to determine whether there is enough evidence for him to stand trial by court-martial. The largest Army post east of the Mississippi River, Fort Stewart is home to thousands of soldiers assigned to the 3rd Infantry Division. It is located about 40 miles (64 kilometers) southwest of Savannah. Radford served as a supply sergeant in the division's 2nd Armored Brigade. Army records show he enlisted in 2018. Soldiers in Radford's unit said they followed the sound of gunfire into the hallways of an office building where they found hazy gunsmoke in the air and wounded victims on the floor and in nearby offices. Brig. Gen. John Lubas, the 3rd Infantry's commander, credited soldiers with saving lives by immediately rendering first aid, in some cases using their bare hands to staunch bleeding gunshot wounds. Army Secretary Dan Driscoll visited Fort Stewart the day after the shootings to award Meritorious Service Medals to six soldiers who helped restrain the gunman and treat the victims.

Russia blamed for federal court system hack that exposed cases and info on confidential informants
Evidence suggests that Russia is partly responsible for a recent hack of the federal court records system, which may have exposed sensitive information about criminal cases and confidential informants, according to a report. The hack, which Politico first reported last week, is believed to have compromised information about confidential sources in criminal cases across numerous federal districts. It's not immediately clear which Russian entity was involved, several people familiar with the matter told the New York Times. The Administrative Office of the U.S. Courts, which manages the electronic court records system, declined to comment on the reported revelations. Some criminal case searches involved people with Russian and Eastern European surnames, the outlet reported. Court system administrators informed Justice Department officials, clerks and chief judges in federal courts that 'persistent and sophisticated cyber threat actors have recently compromised sealed records,' according to an internal department memo seen by the Times. Some records related to criminal activity with international ties were also believed to have been targeted. Chief judges were also warned last month to move cases fitting this description off the regular document-management system, the outlet reported. Margo K. Brodie, chief judge of the Eastern District of New York, ordered 'documents filed under seal in criminal cases and in cases related to criminal investigations are prohibited from being filed' in PACER, a public database for court records. The Administrative Office of the U.S. Courts issued a statement last week saying that it is taking steps to further protect sensitive court filings, noting that most court documents filed in the system are not confidential. 'The federal Judiciary is taking additional steps to strengthen protections for sensitive case documents in response to recent escalated cyberattacks of a sophisticated and persistent nature on its case management system. The Judiciary is also further enhancing security of the system and to block future attacks, and it is prioritizing working with courts to mitigate the impact on litigants,' August 7 statement read. Although the statement didn't address the origin of the cyber attack or which files were compromised, the Times reported that federal courts in South Dakota, Missouri, Iowa, Minnesota and Arkansas were included in the breach.
