I know exactly where this is, but I didn't know until now that it was where Chad Wolf lived. For the last several months, every time I've gone by the place, there have been a couple of black SUVs, like Chevy Tahoes, with government plates parked and running out in the street. I went to a grocery not far away last Saturday night, at 11:30, when it was finally cool enough that I could go out on my bicycle. Sure enough, even at midnight, they were parked there and running.

A crowd gathered outside the home of Chad Wolf, the acting secretary of Homeland Security, in Alexandria, Virginia, on Sunday afternoon to protest the recent controversial detention of protesters in Portland, Oregon.

The group also continued to shed light on police use of force in the deaths of George Floyd in Minneapolis, and Breonna Taylor in Louisville, and the way other minority communities have been treated by authorities.

ShutDownDC organized the protest on Facebook. The group considers Wolf responsible for unidentified federal agents forcefully detaining protesters and using chemical deterrents like pepper spray and tear gas to disperse crowds.

The protest remained peaceful, with activists calling on other community members to step up to defend Black and minority communities against the Trump administration’s actions.
