Please cite the statute under which the Speaker of the House can reject (aka override) the President. Bonus points if you can do it in a location where the President has SOLE control and responsibility... Thine Führer is going after blue states and everyone knows it. Can't wait to hear the cult protest when Newsom does the same to LA, TN, FL and other crime ridden RED states.

This is just ridiculous bait to make points and get your opposition banned.

LOL! You really are trying to poke the bear. Guess you got tired of yelling the lie ad naseum.

The bias and credibility on both those sites are in the toilet. Could not believe pundit beat revolver with "very low credibility".

I just posted the reality, the decision to, or not to, deploy the NG on J6 rested on the shoulders of the Felon in Chief. If you believe those two propaganda sites over the source...you might be in a cult.

I just got off the floor myself from hyperventilating.

The Trumpys can’t understand facts. Just what they get from Revolver and Townhall. Actual facts are something they can’t comprehend.

4]If that were really the case, why are troops walking the national mall and Georgetown, rather than Southeast, where most of the crime occurs.[/COLOR] Or better yet, instead of taking more money from DC, which he did, he could surge money for hiring more DC police, which would be a long term solution rather than just a performative one.

I am all for making DC safer (even though per Trump in May violent crimes in DC were down 25%) in ways that will make it last rather than ways that are just for show and ineffective.

Those are the areas where people congregate the most. Tourist for instance go to areas where they can take pictures and take in the sights. They don't go to the shady areas of town where the hoodlums are.

What was the event that caused the need for the National Guard to be called out at this time ?


Will the National Guard go back to their bases after being called out for 30 days ? If so, what is the point of this ?

That’s also not where the crime emergency is so there’s no reducing crime in those areas. No one is shooting up or mugging a bunch of tourists at the national mall. Nor are criminals jacking cars in downtown DC. Especially not in Georgetown. I lived their for years, we all knew where the crime was, including tourists. Southeast DC is where the problem is.

As I stated, putting Humvees on the national mall and guys with M16s standing around there in fatigues isn’t stopping any crime. It’s just performance.
