Doj employee known as “Big Balls” attacked in the capital
A former government employee (DOGE) was beaten in an attempt to steal in Washington, DC this week, prompting President Trump to renew his threats to control the country’s capital, according to multiple news reports.
The victim, Edward Corestine, a 19 -year -old software engineer, who was called “Big Balls”, was expressed early Sunday by a group of teenagers trying to avoid him and a woman the police recognized as another important to him, according to the Associated Press.
Two 15 -year -old children have been arrested regarding the attempt to infiltrate and beaten, according to the Associated Press.
Elon Musk, who headed Dog’s efforts while working in the government, confirmed the attack on a job on X.
“A few days ago, a gang of about ten young men tried to attack a woman in her car at night in the capital,” Musk said in the position. “One of the members of the DOGE team watched what was happening, ran to defend it and was severely beaten to the degree of concussion, but he saved it.”
On Tuesday, Trump called for a boycott of Colombia to change its laws to allow adolescents aged 14 years or older to prosecute like adults and confront the prolonged prison sentence.
Trump actually shared a graphic photo of the former blood -stained employee, but he was not called Corestin, along with a long message of handrails against violent crime in Washington, which decreased in recent years. Trump blames the crime of the city for the local “youth”, who said they were not afraid of the consequences.
“They are not afraid to apply the law because they know nothing at all, but this will happen now!” Trump published. “The law in the capital must be changed to prosecute these” palace “as adults, and they will be closed for a long time, starting at the age of fourteen.
Trump added: “Washington, the capital, must be safe, clean and beautiful to all Americans, and most importantly, to see the world,” Trump added. “If the capital does not get its work together, quickly, we will have no choice but federal control over the city, and the operation of this city how it should be operated, and the criminals are placed that they will not escape from it anymore.”
The crime in the capital decreased by 35 percent in 2024 from the previous year, representing the lowest level in 30 years. Boycott data shows that violent crime has decreased so far in 2025 compared to the previous year.
Trump has repeatedly threatened to control Washington throughout his second term and spoke at length about his desire to rid the crime city and homeless population.
On Tuesday, MP Margori Taylor Green (R-GA) praised X Coristine for “sacrificing his safety to defend a helpless woman” and supported Trump, claiming that the capital is “one of the most dangerous cities in America.”
“I support President Trump to seize the city to establish law and order,” Green said.
