Most other Democrats seem to be doing this
Yup, Jazz Hands thinks fighting crime is authoritarian
Is this the hill lots of Democrats want to die on? Protecting lawlessness?
Fighting crime in D.C. cannot end with Trump’s show of force
President Donald Trump is putting on quite the show to project strength on crime after the foiled carjacking of a staffer in his administration. On Monday, he took control of the D.C. police and deployed the National Guard.
It’s one thing to get tough, but it’s also essential to enact sustainable fixes. Crime is a serious problem, and fighting it requires a serious commitment — from this administration, as well as federal lawmakers, the mayor, the D.C. Council, prosecutors and local judges.
Trump is correct that crime remains a serious issue in the city (and nationally). Violent crime has fallen over the past few years, as city officials note, but many residents still do not feel safe. Carjackings, for instance, have dropped after a surge in 2023, but they remain above pre-pandemic levels. High-profile incidents of violence underscore the problem, which local leaders cannot wave away.
Nevertheless, Trump’s efforts to put more law enforcement and armed troops on the streets of D.C. will probably have limited value. A stepped-up security presence might deter crime and keep some troublemakers from going out after dark for the rest of the summer, but Trump will only control the police department for 30 days unless he finds a way to get both chambers of Congress to authorize an extension.
Yeah, it is a temporary fix. D.C. needs more cops
What D.C. needs is more permanent police officers. In 2023, then-Police Chief Robert J. Contee III warned that the city’s force had fallen to a half-century low of about 3,350 officers, forcing the city to spend millions of dollars on overtime. D.C. Mayor Muriel E. Bowser (D) and the D.C. Council have already dedicated millions in their recent budget to increase staffing, as part of a goal to reach 4,000 officers by 2031. Congress could restore the city’s budget, which it cut while averting a shutdown earlier this year.
D.C. is having trouble retaining and recruiting police officers, because they know the city officials like the mayor do not have their back. So lots of them half-ass their jobs. Why try hard when you’ll be called a racist if you bust someone, and lots of the people they do bust get let go without even a slap on the wrist.
D.C. can help itself by holding more juvenile offenders accountable. The city passed a law last year called Secure DC that made it easier to prosecute certain crimes, such as illegal gun possession and carjackings, and to detain dangerous defendants, including juveniles, while they await trial. This marked a political shift for the city, where left-wing lawmakers and the elected D.C. attorney general, Brian Schwalb, previously championed relative leniency for teens who committed serious crimes.
Yeah, well, they are going to work hard to try and get the kiddies to not be criminals, but, they’ve had a free ride for years and aren’t ready to give it up. Remember who created this situation: Democrats.
Is there much of a difference between the homicide rates of DC and Mississippi? ????
Why yes, johnnie boyo.
Hope that helps. LOL.
Release the files, Donnie boy. Release the files. There is something so damaging to Donnie that even 1000 FBI agents working 24/7 couldn’t scrub the stench.
What do the victims (those still alive) have to say? “Katie Johnson”, 13 when trump and Epstein raped her (and she had a witness, “Tiffany Doe”), withdrew her second suit claiming she had been threatened.
MAGAts support their Cult Leader, regardless. You see, he is punishing your enemies – negroes, illegals, Muslims, trannies, fags, cross-dressers and lesbos, universities, democrats, libraries, newspapers, NPR, PBS, scientists, knowledge, reason, medical research, poor people… So a few dozen sexual assaults, pedophilia and rapes is a small price to pay to Make Amerika Great Again!!
All of his actions lately – TACO tariffs, martial law in DC/LA, Obama-Clinton Treason!!, Coke sugar, Murdoch, “fake” birthday letter, firing Colbert, Commanders and Guardians, Jerome Powell… are to stop the Epstein train…

More hearsay from the Rimjob.
It’s all he ever has.
Bwaha! Lolgfy Incestuous KiddieFucker!
MAGA47 Motherfucker!
If Donald Trump cured cancer, the left would combitch that he put too many doctors and nurses out of work. If President Trump walked on water, the left would complain that he stomped on the heads of innocent little fishies.
The President’s move might not work, and I doubt that it will work, not when you have a city which treats criminals leniently once they are arrested.
The problem is the inner city culture which tells people that they can behave like heathen savages. We’ve all known some [insert plural slang term for the anus here] who we thought absolutely desperately deserve to be killed, but we didn’t do it ourselves because, deep down, we understand that shooting other people is wrong, and, of course, we didn’t want to go to prison.
Today we have an inner-city culture which glorifies ‘prison cred’ on the streets and minimizes the fact that young men can spend decades behind bars, the rest of their lives behind bars, because it still proves how awesomely tough they are. And today we have an inner city culture which tells blacks in our society that if they do something terrible and illegal, well, Hell, it’s because evil yT people enslaved their ancestors over 160 years ago.
This is what the integrationists of the 1950s and 1960s hoped to solve with mandated racial integration in the schools. They thought that racial integration in the classrooms, while kids were young, would socialize young black kids into darker skinned white adults.
You can see that even today, in advertising. Many have commented on ads depicting interracial marriages and biracial kids, but you know what they’ve missed? All of those interracial and black families used in ads are still depicted as living and working in upper-middle class neighborhoods and settings; they aren’t shown in Kensington or Strawberry Mansion in foul, fetid, fuming, foggy, filthy Philadelphia!
The imaginative Mr Dana typed:
Of course, Mr trump has not cured anything, certainly not cancer. In fact, he’s making everything worse. Mssrs Dana and trump imagine that cutting cancer research will cure cancer – that closing rural hospitals will help cancer patients in Bumfukt KY or Coldwater MO. We’ll see, as the experiments are being conducted in real time. Their unreasonable fear/disdain of scientific research, medicine and universities will kill Americans.
Don’s martial law and federal takeover of DC is just another political stunt. DC is the 25th most violent metro area, with fewer than half the violent crimes of St Louis, Baltimore, Memphis or Detroit. And DC is 30th in total crimes!! He needs another distraction AND is testing the American people to see how much authoritarianism they’ll tolerate. The US homicide rate (5.76 per 100K in 2023) is approximately the global average. Canada has only 2.23 homicides per 100K. The U.S. homicide rate has been cut nearly in half since the Reagan/BushI reigns!!
Racists like Mssrs trump and Dana, who advocates that only caucasian, property owning males should vote, blame black genes and black culture for inner city poverty-driven crime, while ignoring caucasian white collar crime which costs Americans between $426 BILLION and $1.7 TRILLION per year! Property crimes (burglary, larceny-theft, motor vehicle theft, vandalism and arson) cost Americans less than $20 billion per year.
It’s unlikely that violent crimes, property crimes or white collar crimes will see a significant decrease under a trump reign (BTW, insert an “s” in ‘reign’ and you get ‘resign’!! Take a hint, bubba.).
Rimjob advocates for more lawlessness and more crime.
Guess he like most dumbass libtards never offer any reasonable solutions for the problem because they don’t have any.
It’s just Trump hate all the time.
Bwaha! Lolgfy Loser!
MAGA47 Motherfucker!
Mr teach’s MAGAt Motherfucker feels the way to solve crime is with the National Guard!! And he and his Dumbass Corrupt Leader want to start in the 25th most dangerous city in America.
Since crime correlates with poverty, could alleviating poverty help? Decent housing? Adequate healthcare? Education?
What did the Dems do to cause a big drop in crime since 1990?
Ya see?
Rimjob is still confused.
Losers generally are.
Bwaha! Lolgfy Loser!
MAGA47 Motherfucker!
“if Donald Trump cured cancer….. ”
Donald Trump couldn’t even build his stupid ass wall.

Biden Gave Ghilsaine Maxwell 20 years in max security.

You are wrong. Some might say you lie. I say you are just confused and don’t know who to use Google.

But with Democratic city/county governments.
