I went to DC last month, it is not a lawless city. The worst I saw was a woman trying to push a shopping cart onto the metro and getting in a verbal fight with the metro worker. We took the bus. We stayed in a non tourist area and there were no teenage gangs roving around. You know what we saw, old ladies getting on the buss and a kid helped them with their bags. A dude even helped my older mum get off the buss when it stopped a bit to far away from the curb. We saw more problems from trump then we did the people on the streets.

Omg homeless people are not all mentally ill. Jesus Christ not all are criminal drug users either. Elderly are more at risk of homeless because not enough SSI, SSDI, and retirement. The whole middle class will be broke by the time his term is up! Not even they will survive the financial downfall

I don't understand why the dems want to hold down black folks. DC is safer now, especially the black communities. White folks need to mind their own business.

The sane people felt unease during
Race based hiring practices
Race based scholarships
Race based business grants
Race based preference for government programs
Stop Asian Hate, until they couldn’t hide it was black people attacking Asians, and not whites, then they just stopped talking about it. The attacks didn’t stop.
Voter ID laws are racist, because white liberals thought black people didn’t know how to get their own ID’s.
Jewish people are “white” now too, apparently, so it was okay for terrorist-supporting college students to harass and bully Jewish students on college campuses across the country.
Whenever there is a conservative speaker on a college campus, the screaming hysterics come out in droves to shut down any conversation from happening.
“Antifa” physically assaults people that think differently than them.
-chemically abusing children
-violently abusing women in their own sports
-closing small and medium sized businesses during the pandemic, while letting all the big box chains stay open, further increasing the wealthy divide in this country by leaps and bounds, while still pretending to fight against such things
-openly assisting sex trafficking by keeping no security at the border
-harassing and trying to fire millions of people for not taking the highly suspicious covid vaccine (which Biden is already pardoning people for their involvement, even though they all claim to be innocent of wrong doing, hmm….)
-sexualizing and grooming children while giving grade schoolers highly sexualized content in their school libraries
-supporting the overnight pullout of Afghanistan that got hundreds of thousands murdered for supporting us, and radicalized the next several generations of Afghani against the US
-Pumping creepy, rapists Islamic men into our cities and telling local women racists for complaining about being harassed and assaulted.
What you call ‘fascism’ is about law being implemented uniformly. Not cherry picking like you all want. It’s about prosecuting criminals, and protecting people that obey the law.
The jig has been up on you people. You want selective laws that only apply to whites, and everyone else gets a pass.
No society can sustain like that.
But you’re too deluded and warped to even understand that.
But more folks have ‘woke’ for real now, seeing your insanity for what it is, and voting against your psychosis

But it is NECESSARY!
It is obvious that the mayors and governors aren't able to fix the problem. So, thank you, Mr. President!
If you live in a gated community with good policing and low crime in your neighborhood, then you are not qualified to challege the President on this matter.

@6:51: I'm watching from DC, I'm refuting the claims. It's an extreme exaggeration. Yes, there's crime in DC (like every other city). Not extreme, mass crime.
@ZacharyBumpus

As a masshole, interesting that Boston is part of the targeted cities but Mass itself isn't a targeted state, meanwhile RI is targeted but not Providence, quite interesting

I think you should take the time to read the article in the Existential Republic, "We Live in a Fascist State. What Now?" It's the first thing in a while that's given me any hope.

You're an honest to god a joke of a lawyer if you believe that this is facism Leeja Miller. You guys say you want law and order, but you allow killings/homocides and drug dealings to happen in these cities. I mean, have you even looked up the fetanyl zombies in Kingston Philadelphia? How can you say you guys respect law and order if you support and protect something like crime, chaos, and fetanyl Zombies

I'm not against criticizing Trump. There is to many things to criticize him about.
BUT WHAT IS BAD ABOUT THIS!? He is just stopping the rampage of crime happening in DC. How is this a bad thing? Out of all things to criticize Trump about, this is not one of them.

The Maga regime is nothing more than a group of domestic terrorists. Trump usnt our president. Hes a neo nazi that maga Republicans worship. If they want to start making our nation a safer place it should start with Trump, JD Vance, etc all in handcuffs being marched to lockup. How far are we willing to allow this man to go? Are Americans really such a giant group of cowards? I thought we were the crazy violent ones. Why are we allowing this neo nazi to still remain in office? The constitution says the people have the right to revolt against a tyrant leader. Trump WILL cross the line one day. I hope im alive to see these men and women of Maga get put to ruin. Maga Republicans should be banished from our country. It must be sad wgen youre whole group is seen as a terrorist regime full of bigots, misogynistic apes, and just a bunch of weak individuals with chips on their shoulders that want to bring our country to its knees. Remember True Americans dont allow neo nazis to take over. Last i checked, our elders died destroying Nazis.

Trump is dying. Nothing left to lose except how he'll be remembered. The banks and corporations (architects of project 2025) have promised him tribute and reverence in exchange for being the "useful idiot".
Mar-a-lago will become the shrine for the dwindling maga cult with an outrageously overpriced souvenirs & gift shop, until it's sold, bulldozed and made into a tourist trade boardwalk.
Immigrants will vendor business at great profit …

Q. What do Trump & Kim Jong-un have in common? A. They control as a Totalitarian Dictatorship. If the people would have united and fought back againsts Trump's kidnapping of innocent immigrant and Latino American Citizens that he is sending to death prisons NOT deporting them, there would not be National Guard acting as Trump's Thugs in democratic cities. I know that Trump is using this as an excuse to start putting black people in the private death prison because Trump is making lots of money from the body count. Trump is empowered by his illegal genocide of the brown skinned people but it wasn't happening to the rest of Americans so they didn't want to get involved. Trump will have the military march through our streets until everyone submits to his will.
