Trump made progress toward restoring civilization in DC by taking over law enforcement, but there is still work to do. Even if criminals no longer control the streets as they did, their advocates still run the courts. This was made arrogantly obvious when a liberal judge let off the thugs who assaulted Edward Coristine:

Two teenagers who jumped former DOGE staffer Edward “Big Balls” Coristine avoided jail time after pleading guilty to simple assault in a Washington, DC, court Tuesday.

The boy and girl, both 15, from Hyattsvfille, Maryland, were sentenced to probation by a DC court judge, just over two months after the pair were arrested for the vicious Aug. 3 attack, WUSA9 reported.

Twelve and 9 months of probation, respectively — for beating a guy into a bloody pulp while he defended his girlfriend, leaving him with a concussion and a broken nose. That is, they received no punishment at all. There must have been high fives as they left the courtroom.

Liberal judges rarely pass up a chance to stick it to Trump at the expense of their own integrity, but Coristine’s attackers probably would have been let off even if he were not a prominent member of the DOGE team. That’s how they do things in Democrat jurisdictions, where mobs of blacks beating up Caucasians is regarded as “racial justice.”

The rest of the attackers were not even apprehended.
