- New street art has emerged in Washington D.C.'s Shaw neighbourhood, depicting a 'sandwich guy' hitting administration officials with hoagies, as a protest against the president's crime crackdown in the city.
- The 'sandwich guy' imagery stems from a viral video of government employee Sean Dunn allegedly throwing a sandwich at federal officers after the president declared a 'crime emergency' in D.C.
- The latest posters, inspired by Banksy, illustrate the hoagie striking Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth and White House Deputy Chief of Staff Stephen Miller in the face.
- The president declared a 'crime emergency' and federalised local police despite D.C. experiencing a 30-year low in violent crime, a move largely opposed by city residents according to a recent poll.
- A White House spokesperson criticised coverage of the posters, while the president recently claimed D.C. is a 'crime free zone,' a statement contradicted by recent police crime statistics.
