A former staffer from President Trump\u2019s Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) \u2014 affectionately known by insiders as \u201cBig Balls\u201d \u2014 was the target of a violent attempted carjacking early Sunday morning in the heart of the nation\u2019s capital.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Edward Coristine, a 19-year-old software engineer and one of the standout young voices behind Trump\u2019s government-cutting initiative, was ambushed around 3 a.m. in the Logan Circle neighborhood \u2014 a once-proud district now plagued by rising crime and emboldened youth gangs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
According to police, a pack of teens approached Coristine and his girlfriend near their vehicle. The thugs made threats about stealing the car before Coristine \u2014 in true America First fashion \u2014 pushed his girlfriend to safety and prepared to defend himself.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The mob attacked him until law enforcement officers, thankfully patrolling nearby, intervened. The suspects scattered, but two 15-year-old males were later apprehended and charged with unarmed carjacking.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
This disturbing incident is yet another example of what happens when Democrat-run cities allow lawlessness to fester<\/p>\n\n\n\n
