Trump Orders National Guard Into Washington, Takes Over D.C. Police

This is exactly why foreign terrorism has gone down in the US. Even a foreign idiot can see that Trump has been their best bang for their buck in terms of dividing America, reinforcing their worldview of dictatorships, getting America to back away from the world, and destroying our economy.

Trump has done more for Al Qaeda and ISIS than Bin Laden and Baghdadi could have ever dreamed.

 

When Trump took office border crossings were already down 90%. Why do you morons literally lie about everything ? The most dangerous cities are located in Republican states

 

Interesting - no one in the city of Chicago interacts with the state police?

If you want to use cities we can - OKC, Miami, Jacksonville and Tulsa.

Will you be fine with with a Democratic President sending in troops in those towns because the mayor and governor's of those cities and state cannot control crime?

 

It's curious that there are troops deployed on the Mall, around monuments, in front of federal buildings, and in other areas of DC that have been considered safe since even before I lived there from 1985-1994. Why is that?

Well, I think it's either to give a visual to visitors or because it puts a lot of troops within a short run/drive of the White House. Maybe both. Makes you wonder what else they are thinking about doing. Most presidents get by with Secret Service protection and don't need a palace guard.

(In my years there, I would walk and bike from Capital Hill to Logan Circle, Dupont Circle, Woodley Park, and Georgetown at all hours. I'd jog the Mall at 10 PM and walk to Eastern Market at any time. Had a regular Saturday afternoon basketball game in Anacostia. I never felt unsafe in any of those places. I did have my bike stolen once, but that was it. Caveat: I'm a big guy--6'2" and 235 at the time though I've lost some height and gained some weight since. None of my women friends had the nighttime freedom I had, but that was just being a woman in a world of predatory men and is a universal experience in the US. Overall, DC has become much safer since my time there.)

 

lol. guess you could say things are getting serious

 

this is the 1st time I’m even hearing that the CDC got shot up…I had no clue

 

It may serve as a legal defense strategy against litigation. Federal law permits stationing troops on federal property for protective purposes, provided they remain in stationary guard roles rather than engaging in civilian law enforcement.

This approach effectively uses legitimate legal frameworks to justify resource allocation that serves political objectives rather than public safety needs.

 

Austin police have identified 32-year-old Ethan Nieneker as the man accused of killing three people in a shooting outside a Target store on Monday.



Authorities say Nieneker shot employee Hector Leopoldo Martinez Machuca as he collected shopping carts.

He then opened fire on a Toyota SUV, killing 65-year-old Adam Chow and his 4-year-old granddaughter while Chow’s wife looked on. Police say Nieneker fled in the victims’ vehicle, later carjacking more cars, assaulting drivers, and engaging in erratic behavior before being arrested later.

KVUE reported that “according to Travis County Jail records, Nieneker faces charges of capital murder by terror threat, capital murder of a person under 10 years of age and first-degree murder.” A review of Nieneker’s Facebook account shows a pattern of sharing right-wing political memes, including one that promoted guns.

Where is the outrage? Can’t even shop at Target anymore

 

Sure, because MAGA freaks like this guy & many others like Stephen Paddock in Vegas who go on inhuman MAGA killing sprees get their MAGA credentials downplayed on purpose - even before the regime took over

It makes less murderous MAGA freaks like @Commodore and @Os Trigonum upset - when you note that MAGA freaks are a malignant cancer that metastasize and kill

 

this is where we’re at now

 

I'd be shocked if Mike Lee has ever gone east of Capitol Hill, much less east of the Anacostia river.

 

The dangerous parts of the Republican states are the parts where the Democrats live and where the Democrats run the police department. PA/Philadelphia, MI/Detroit, WI/Milwaukee -- all great examples of red states with some high crime blue-run areas.


GOOD DAY

 

New sheriff in town...

 

At some point this tribalism will have to be rectified, right now its us VS them mentality and no hint at all that the folks in Congress will work across the aisle. Facts are not facts anymore as maga has perfected the "alternative truth" theory. I used to be the guy who said, lets them act a fool were above that but politics as I used to know it is dead and the Dems will need to get to voters that havent been radicized. IMO the fringe voters really turned this past election upside down, the single mom with 2 kids who just wanted lower prices so they held there nose and voted for trump. If the courts allow the tariffs to continue prices will continue to get higher, and as many astute politicians know when its time to vote, is the economy good or bad, if its bad people will vote for change.

 

Both of these things are most likely true.

Things are worse than what's being reported.

 

LMAO and SMH at the same time.

 

Bet you would feel differently if a loved one was a victim of these crimes.

There's a better than avg chance of this happening since you live in Chicago, although I'm betting you dont live/work on the south side of Chicago. What Trump's doing in DC is perfectly legal and I'm betting other cities citizens will be crying for help from Trump after he gets DC cleaned up despite the politicians in those cities turning down his offers for help. It's kinda sad yet predictable in a way.

 

Just for the record there's no *legal* way to "seek long term extension" he is limited to 30 days by law and even that authority is limited.

It's not "this was never temporary" - it's temporary by law - unless you're willing to break it which - obviously

Just real dictator tyrant bullshit - fk you @Os Trigonum and your syphilitic emperor *******
