Judege BoxWine said people/juveniles who commit crime in DC will now suffer real consequences and not just go to Yoga and Arts and Crafts classes.
Ironical that Trump just moved a woman convicted for her role in a scheme to sexual exploit and abuse multiple minor girls with Jeffrey Epstein over the course of a decade into a club fed camp where she can now do yoga classes and take Arts and Craft classes. That was a priority for Trump.

No kidding.
Actually doing something to solve and prevent the problem isn't as headline worthy as posturing as a tough guy who is going to use our military against it's own citizens. Remember, Trump doesn't actually solve anything. Not long ago he was pissed that "inner city" people didn't step up to pick the crops after he ICE raided farms and took away the brown people...and the crops were rotting in the fields. BTW - "inner city" is his code word for black people. ------------------------- If I should ever die, God forbid, let this be my epitaph: THE ONLY PROOF HE NEEDED FOR THE EXISTENCE OF GOD WAS MUSIC - KV |

Progs are up in arms about someone trying to reduce crime. Progs are pro-crime. crime in D.C is at a 30 year low. Police statistics, show crime rates in the District have fallen sharply over the past two years. Violent crime is down 26 percent when compared year-to-date against 2024. Last year, in turn, saw a 32 percent drop in homicides and a 35 percent drop in overall violent crime compared to 2023. That being said, the total number of homicides last year, 187, was still above the years that immediately preceded 2020's COVID-19 pandemic. Seems that crime is UP when there's a Felon in the YT house! ------------------------- The GOP are now: Guardians Of Pedophiles |

The Criminal in Chief seizes control of National Guard in DC
A deployment of National Guard troops had been predicted, in part because the District's status - short of full statehood - gives the president clear control of when the Guard is deployed. (Let's refer back to Jan 06, 2021 when he didn't deploy the National Guard then) The Home Rule Act of 1973, which gives the District its current measure of autonomy, Provides for a president taking emergency control of the D.C. police for 48 hours. A president cannot take over those powers for more than 48 hours unless, amid that period, they give an explanation of their reasons to Congress. There is also a limit of 30 days on those powers, even if Congress receives notification. ------------------------- The GOP are now: Guardians Of Pedophiles |

The majority of US cities with the highest crime rate per capita are in red states!! So why isn't the felon sending troops to at least the top four ? ....right? Memphis TN, Cleveland OH, Toledo OH, Little Rock AK. This tells us it's not about protecting people or fighting crime! ?? It's because he is enjoying using the military against US citizens in blue cities.
Below are the 30 U.S. cities with at least 100,000 residents that had the highest number of crimes against people, per 100,000, according to the latest FBI data report. Memphis, TN Cleveland, OH Toledo, OH Little Rock, AR Peoria, IL Springfield, IL Detroit, MI Akron, OH Beaumont, TX Rockford, IL Evansville, IN Dayton, OH Nashville, TN Winston-Salem, NC Springfield, MO Chicago, IL Salt Lake City, UT Springfield, MA North Charleston, SC Corpus Christi, TX Tulsa, OK Albany, NY Buffalo, NY Kansas City, MO Shreveport, LA Baltimore, MD Houston, TX New Haven, CT Las Cruces, NM Lansing MI ------------------------- The GOP are now: Guardians Of Pedophiles |

Yeah, let's normalize an autocrats use of a false pretext to impose government control over local law enforcement as a prelude to a more national takeover (he rambled at the podium today about his plans to do it in other cities besides LA and DC).
This has played out so well throughout history. |

Ummmmmmm, , , , , so, , ,
I saw an article 'headline' about this this morning, , , , The line included a "even though the crime rate is decreasing" kinda comment. Ya, ya, sure, sure. The District of Columbia is the Nation's Capital! When the crime rate becomes LOWER than the National 'average', we will talk about 'giving it back".

He sure used them when BLM held a legitimate peaceful protest of unjust police brutality on June 4, 2020, and we all knew at least a month in advance that violence was planned for Jan 6.

Well it certainly sets a precedent. Might be useful in the future to hold the traitors accountable.
I mean there's clearly an emergency of widespread right wing corruption and treason; and due to their well documented history of violence we can't take any chances. ------------------------- "Are you a Communist?"

Oops! FBI Chief Undermines Trump's Main Reason for Taking Over D.C.
Mere moments after the president claimed Monday that federalization of Washington's law enforcement was warranted on the basis that the city was a crime-riddled hellscape, FBI Director Kash Patel said that wasn't the case. Instead, Patel boasted that the country's homicide rate had hit an all-time low, effectively unraveling the administration's rationale for forcing the Metropolitan Police Department and the D.C. National Guard to take over the nation's capital. "The murder rates are plummeting," Patel said. "We are now able to report that the murder rate is on track to be the lowest in U.S. history." ------------------------- The GOP are now: Guardians Of Pedophiles |

Hero Sandwich:
A DOJ special affairs investigations paralegal threw a sandwich at one of the half dozen ICE agents standing outside a D.C. Subway restaurant in full military garb, calling them fascists. He was charged with a felony and Pam Bondi fired him, saying he's one of the "deep state" they've been working so hard to clean out of the DOJ. Edited: 08/14/2025 at 07:43 PM by 3rdworldlover |

Yet they pardon and embrace Jan 6 rioters by the thousands.
In fact they let them into their administration after they encouraged other rioters to kill police. "Jared Wise shouted at rioters to "kill" police guarding the Capitol" Jared is now working the in DOJ after his pardon. What a bunch of hypocrites. ------------------------- If I should ever die, God forbid, let this be my epitaph: THE ONLY PROOF HE NEEDED FOR THE EXISTENCE OF GOD WAS MUSIC - KV |
