This isn't what it looks like, right?

Law enforcement. It's their job. We have laws.

No, the answer is the courts. The courts decide.

There is already codified law. I'm sure people here are intelligent enough to determine what behavior endangers the public. I know it's a tough concept to wrap your heads around but law enforcement's purpose is to enforce the established laws.

The current president and this administration has clearly demonstrated that laws do not matter any more.

People who are intelligent enough know that authoritarian governments can pull out of their butts what constitutes endangering the public in order to squash dissent. If this administration gave a crap about existing laws, it wouldn’t be ignoring the courts.

I asked ChatGPT to summarize the EO and got this back:

This executive order directs the federal government to strongly support state and local police by increasing resources, legal protections, and training, while opposing local policies seen as limiting law enforcement. It calls for legal aid for officers accused in the line of duty, more funding for police pay and prisons, and expanded use of military equipment to fight crime. It also authorizes legal action against local officials who obstruct policing or implement certain diversity and equity policies viewed as harmful. Overall, it emphasizes a law-and-order approach focused on tough policing and public safety.

I'm fine with this executive order. Democrats weakened the police and allowed people to take over cities in the name of social justice and "reparations" (it is just property!), as well as their blatant refusal to prosecute criminals.

I interpret this as a sign that such situations won't be tolerated again, and people should be prepared to face consequences if there are mostly peaceful protests planned for the summer.

You guys never took civics? Law ENFORCEment enforces the law, they do not get to interpret the law. Except in an authoritarian regime.

Sadly this is where MAGA wants us.

Exactly...but MAGA are not intelligent so they continue to worship the felon with their eyes wide shut.

Yup "not my guns"....thoughts and prayers for all the kids dying in schools but MAGA gleefully excepts orange man taking away all of their actual rights and being a dictator. Fun times.

Here is the EO announcement from the White House.

https://www.whitehouse.gov/presidential-actions/2025/04/strengthening-and-unleashing-americas-law-enforcement-to-pursue-criminals-and-protect-innocent-citizens/

Can you point to where it authorizes state or local law enforcement to "interpret" the law? Laws are on the books. Law enforcement knows the law. Recently U.S. citizens have received their law degrees from Youtube U. and feel like they have all the answers.

How does this apply to state and local law enforcement? They are not within the purview of the federal government?

For the love of God, stop relying on Chat GPT to explain things to you. It’s crap and it’s what these immature tech bro terrorist Yarvin sociopaths want to do to everything.

Did you read the EO? It's a pretty decent summation.

Not the OP.

This administration does not have the moral authority to say anything about law enforcement after pardoning the January 6th criminals.

I did that’s a robotic summary with zero context about the fact that we don’t do this in America and why. Perfect for non-thinkers with zero external knowledge to apply. Trash.

Do better, PP. The arrogant tone of your comment does not help people who are trying to understand.

What?

The GOP routine voted to defund the police in the bills where the democrats provided MORE funding to police at the state and local levels. Fact. Go look it up and stop gaslighting us.

In fact, the GOP Congress is forcing the Mayor of DC to defund the MPD because they aren't willing to let her spend DC's own money on such routine items.

I get it, you are scared of automation. Change and progress are hard, but the world is moving on.
