[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I do wonder how this guy is considered a “reporter” instead of an editorialist.

It is definitely hypocritical of Biden to say he supports Home Rule but also sign a federal law that overturns a local one, regardless of what you think of the substance of the crime bill. Don't think it's editorializing to point that out.[/quote]

Like the council overturning the referendum on the minimum wage?  [/quote]

Yes, that was also hypocritical.[/quote]
Oh no, you see. That was representative democracy which we are being denied by Biden and Congress because something, something, look over there, and what about this. [/quote]

“That was representative democracy which we are being denied by Biden and Congress”

This is correct. The Council makes stupid decisions all the time, but I elected them. It infuriates me that I have to defer to the opinions of the elected representative of east nowhere Indiana on my local laws. I truly, deeply do not care what the people of Indiana, Alabama, Massachusetts or wherever think about my local laws. They have NO IDEA what the problems of DC actually are. SO INFURIATING [/quote]

Those were the rules you signed up for.  You have plenty of places to go where you can have 100% control if it matters so much.  Go move to one.  [/quote]
