Federal Troops vs. D.C. Protesters: Drama without a Script
In the ongoing real-life telenovela set in D.C., federal troops found themselves heroes or villainsâdepending on which side needed a like or retweetâin a protest showdown that could have been named 'Clash of the Unapologetically Confused.' On one side, protesters all ethically caffeinated and shouting slogans synced better than a TikTok dance. On the other side, government troops, probably asked to hold signs saying 'We Come in Peace (Please?),' patrolling streets that felt less like a capital city and more like an unpredictable WWE arena. The protests, sprouted from simmering political tea, brewed tension thicker than grandma's Thanksgiving gravy, capturing a Washington spectacle no Netflix scripted binge could top.
