A brave young American hero was beaten bloody on the streets of Washington DC this weekend, and it should make every patriot’s blood boil. Edward Coristine, a 19-year-old former government worker known as “Big Balls,” was attacked by a gang of about ten teenagers during an attempted carjacking. He pushed his girlfriend to safety and stood his ground against the mob of thugs who wanted to steal their car.
This isn’t just another random crime story. Coristine worked for President Trump’s Department of Government Efficiency, the team trying to cut wasteful spending and clean up our bloated federal government. He was one of Elon Musk’s handpicked warriors fighting to drain the swamp and save taxpayer money.
The attack happened early Sunday morning in Logan Circle when the couple was standing by their car. Police say the gang of teens demanded their vehicle and then brutally assaulted Coristine when he refused to back down. Two 15-year-olds from Maryland were arrested, but many more criminals are still running free on DC streets.
President Trump was rightfully furious about this savage attack on one of his team members. He posted a photo of the bloodied young man and called DC crime “totally out of control.” Trump didn’t mince words about what needs to happen next.
Our nation’s capital has become a war zone under liberal leadership. Carjackings are through the roof, and even congressional staffers aren’t safe from the chaos. The same politicians who want to defund police in your hometown can’t even keep their own backyard secure.
This attack sends a clear message to anyone trying to reform government and cut waste. The swamp creatures and street thugs work together to silence patriots who threaten their corrupt system. They want good Americans to be too scared to serve their country.
But Trump isn’t backing down from this fight. He’s threatening to put DC under federal control if local leaders can’t protect law-abiding citizens. When the President of the United States and the world’s richest man both demand action, smart people listen.
Edward Coristine proved that real American heroes still exist, even if they go by unusual nicknames. He protected an innocent woman and stood up to a violent mob without thinking about his own safety. That’s the kind of courage we need more of in this country, not less.
