even CA has pulled back on the nonsense so they are doubling down in DC

Lives will be saved in CA. In DC, the dead and wounded are merely levers for grifters to wallow at the trough. The more human misery and death, the more we need dark money groups to "save us." And Breed is not falling for the "we need to implement DSA agenda FIRST" scripts either. Carrot and stick have been time tested throughout human history. [/quote]

The DC council voted today on a “crime bill” which - if passed - will take baby-steps toward restoring the prior criminal Justice laws DC once had on the books..

Anyone want to bet Allen votes AGAINST the bill today? [/quote]

[b]He will vote for it, actually. He voted for it in committee in a much stronger form. He voted for her June bill without grandstanding[/b].

It's Frumin who will pontificate and waffle today. Several provisions of the bill have significantly lessened the impact. REQUIRING that the Council nominate a criminal to the Sentencing Commission in perpetuity is beyond the pale. Dropping the provision requiring judges to note reasons for pretrial release is very disappointing. The activists do not want that number of violent predators released to be curtailed. [/quote]

Yup. Chaz knows how to do his dirt in the dark. He knows his tenure as the chair of the public safety committee set the stage for where we are today and is a huge liability for him politically. He has to publicly support anti-crime measures, like on the original committee vote. Then he’ll work behind the scenes with the radical wing of the council to get amendments that have enough votes to take the teeth out of anything meaningful. That way he can have his cake and eat it too.

He’s quite cunning.[/quote]
