The grand jury rejections demonstrate that ordinary citizens recognize these prosecutions as politically motivated overreach designed to intimidate residents who oppose Trump's military occupation of their city. Federal prosecutors are weaponizing the justice system by bringing excessive charges for minor infractions that would normally be handled locally or not prosecuted at all. The repeated failures to secure indictments show that DC residents will not be silenced by authoritarian tactics disguised as law enforcement.
