Trump doesn’t have the power to take over police departments in other cities apart from Washington
Donald Trump threatened to send active-duty military personnel into America’s third-largest city to quell what he described as out-of-control crime at the hands of a liberal mayor and Democratic-run city and state governments.
Speaking in the Oval Office Friday to reporters, Trump was boasting of positive crime numbers in the District of Columbia since he seized control of the capital’s police department earlier this month.
He claimed the national guard soldiers tasked with patrolling some of Washington had been doing an “incredible job working with the police” and said his solution for the capital — uniformed soldiers and roving patrols of federal agents who have largely been conducting immigration arrests of delivery drivers according to government statistics — would soon be sent to “another location” to “make it safe.”
When you get called out for being fascist, you say “I just want to conserve our old values” and decent, civilized people buy that, not thinking anyone would be so morally bankrupt that they would want more than that for their own selfish desires to see people hurt.
We have as big a problem with decent, civilized people as we do with fascism. We have to get everyone a lot less decent and “civilized” about what’s going on, and that starts with you, tender, shy, anti-social leftists reading all this. You care? You have to start caring about the right things, get off Lemmy and discord and stop bickering about little lefty issues and start fighting the right people.
No way, I want to hate Kamala more for not being against genocide enough and doing more to earn my moral high ground vote instead of doing something now. The election was not even half a term ago so this is still quite important.
