  1. I may not agree with JD Vance on some things but he is not a senile old fuck so yeah let trump step down and step aside because he does not have a clue anymore... these little fuck ups are happening more and more and his actions are looking more like a man looking for power and adulation rather than giving a shit what Americans want.

    Seriously....there are high order problems then D.C. where the trend is going in the right direction for crime but then again it is Palpatine stratagy.... fabricate a crisis that requires you to enact military powers and never give them back.

    Is this going in the right direction?
    There were 29,348 crimes reported in Washington, D.C. last year, including 3,469 violent offenses, 1,026 assaults with a dangerous weapon, 2,113 robberies, and 5,139 motor vehicle thefts
    What policy did DC apply to reduce crimes from last year?? None
    Crime went down everywhere....probably due to fear of Trump getting in to office

    My people are patriotic Americans who believe in democracy.

    Are yours the jackbooted neo-Nazis who want to trample democracy?

  8. Facts matter, maybe not to trumptards:

    D.C.
    Violent crime down 26% in 2025
    Burglury down 19%

    Violent crime down 35% in 2024


    Just because you post some absolute numbers does not say anything, just shows you failed statistics.

    Let me approach this like Mer-cant does:

    Jacksonville, FL crime:

    12,071 violent crimes in 2022.... oooh JAX is a shithole and trump should take over the city now!!!

    See how stupid you look just using a number...

    CRIME WENT DOWN IN D.C. THE LAST TWO YEARS AND IS SAFER THAN MANY OTHER CITIES IN THE COUNTRY. DUMP DOES NOT GIVE A SHIT ABOUT CRIME OR HE WOULD ADDRESS THE 15 WORST CITIES IN THE COUNTRY.
    He won't because he knows the Mercors of the US are too stupid to fact check and will believe anything spewed at them.
     
  9. you mean this:

    SAN FRANCISCO – As part of the joint public safety partnership with the City of San Francisco, today Governor Gavin Newsom announced he is directing the California Highway Patrol (CHP) to expand its operational footprint — doubling the number of officers deployed — and authorizing the CHP to conduct targeted surges with law enforcement partners to fight crime and further crackdown on the fentanyl crisis gripping San Francisco. Personnel assigned to the expanded operation are expected to include some of the more than 100 new CHP officers slated to graduate from the CHP Academy this week, as well as active officers within the CHP’s Golden Gate Division.


    Newsome worked in partnership with State agencies and stakeholders to increase police activity to address fentanyl in the city and work closely with law enforcement partners. He did not kick out local law enforcement and put them under his control or act like a dictator and claim he was needed to save the city.

    You guys are just too stupid to reason with sometimes. If you thik what Newsome did is the same thing trump is doing you are brainwashed.
