“I blundered on Saturday by failing to check the latest updated terrorist profile before visiting Washington, DC. How was I to know that National Guard troops would be on the lookout for 60ish bicyclists who are too damn curious about algae? I went riding around downtown Washington to check the latest Trump administration efforts to make Washington ‘safe and beautiful’ for the 250th birthday celebration next month. … I wanted to see the Reflecting Pool that President Trump boasted was twice as long as the Empire State building—except that the pool is flat. Arriving at the Pool, I was stunned to discover that that waterway was almost as heavily militarized as the Strait of Hormuz. National Guard troops swarmed the scene. The heavy troop presence reminded me of what I saw on the streets of East Berlin in 1986.” (06/24/26)
