DC Police Have Their Own 'Covfefe' Moment
The police department sent out a mysterious tweet very early Tuesday morning.

WASHINGTON, DC — Nothing good happens when you send a tweet in the wee hours of the morning. President Trump learned that when he sent his now infamous "covfefe" tweet, and now the D.C. Police Department has their own incident.
At 5:46 a.m., the D.C. Police Department had an interesting tweet buried among numerous other tweets for missing persons or other crimes: "j" was all that it read.
Four hours later, whoever was running the Twitter account noticed the sudden response from the Twitterverse and tweeted a tongue-in-cheek followup: "j/k".
