And, despite the fact that 31 Dems voted with Republicans, some Dems are calling it racist.
The word has become irrelevant.



Of course, Schumer is unlikely to bring it to a vote.

Whatever it takes to get these Dems to realize their soft on crime stances are ruining cities.

And this is DC, so there will be no bond for the suspect if arrested. And likely no prosecution if charges are ever filed against anyone. It was only a minor assault. She’s got insurance, I’m sure



OMG you are such an idiot if you think that assault goes unprosecuted because of DC. Who concocted this weird fantasy world for you?


It's not fantasy, it's reality. Crime is not punished in DC. To be real, it's barely frowned upon by the Mayor and Council.

Getting really sick of mentally ill people on the streets, posing a risk to themselves and everyone else, due to a misguided belief in the "right to be unhoused."


But the attacker "was in crisis".

As did a whole bunch of other moderate Democrats. You’re assuming that this was determinative.

Mendelson thinks it made a big difference and he voted for RCCA and to overturn the mayors veto.

The arrested the guy but that’s only because MPD were motivated because it was a member of Congress.

However, because it’s DC he’s only been charged with “simple assault”. There will be no serious punishment.

Apartment buildings need better security too. Why did this guy get in?

Schumer can't stop this. Under procedural rules for this type of legislation, any senator can bring this to a vote, and it only has to pass with a simple majority to go to Biden. And I'm going to guess at least a few Democrats are going to vote with the Republicans again in the senate.

I don’t think it’s so much a belief in the right to be unhoused (although I certainly know people who think that way). I think it’s more just a practical issue/. There are more mentally ill homeless because the fetanyl and meth that is available now makes you mentally ill (and maybe even the strong strains of weed. For some people). They clear them from one area and they just move to another. They cleared Franklin park and they all moved to McPherson. I think McPherson is scheduled to be cleared next month so they will all just move again, maybe to Farragut which is currently clear or maybe back to Franklin. It’s whack a mole with the encampments.

I think the attack has be sue to the fact that she was a federal official, not just the mere fact that her job happened to be a federal official.

Do we know he didn’t live there?

And Biden will refuse to sign, right?

He will sign it.

He just had his buddy Carper introduce a statehood law in the DC which looks like a consolation for what he’s about to do.
