| I’m going to the James concert that night. Y’all’s better not be impeding my driving. |
You’re trying too hard. Your post fairly reeks of forced humor. |

No, we don’t because that didn’t happen. |
I remember it well. You could spot the liberals because they wore masks in their cars. If you got within 6 feet of them outside they would melt down. They all smelled like Purell or Clorox wipes. |
You forgot an important point: they wore masks alone in their cars. Agree with the rest except for the smell--they never got close enough. I remember people crossing the street to avoid walking past another person wearing a mask! |

Maybe cancel your march plans....
Bowser welcomes federal law enforcement presence indefinitely Bowser issued an executive order Tuesday requiring local coordination with federal law enforcement “to the maximum extent allowable by law within the District.” The order gives no expiration date. |
Exactly. She's smart; she knows it's working. |
She visited Trump early on. She knows what she needs to do if she wants to remain mayor. Of course, me first, the people last. |
Thank you Madame Mayor! This is what leadership looks like. |
| Are protesters going to feel safe in D.C.? |
The National Guard will be doing that. Be sure to search for check points in advance. You could be in for a long night. |
They usually do, but since they've been arresting people for "filming too close" maybe a little less so this time. |
It's one way to salvage our federally looted budget anyway. |
I think she (a) wants the additional police resources, which the city can't pay for now on its own due to the budget screwup and (b) more important, doesn't want to pick fights she can't win over Home Rule. I think she's way more concerned with avoiding any actions that further erode her own power than she is with preventing murders. Personally, I'd be curious what would happen if the feds just gave D.C. more officers; I don't think the National Guard being posted in downtown Metro stations is making any difference for crime, and I also don't think random ICE checkpoints in low-crime neighborhoods are, either, both of which are big components of this intervention. There's no question that having more police on the streets is good for preventing crime, but I wish they could do it without the additional performative nonsense. |
