It's funny that JLG championed soft-on-crime policies that led to a really nutso explosion in crime in the city....

....and then that led to Trump commandeering the DC police force and putting troops on every corner, and that led to a precipitous drop in crime, but also pissed everyone off....

....and then JLG used that widespread antipathy towards Trump to get herself a promotion....

....which she will no doubt now use to revive her pro-criminal policies, which will mean crime will soar once againn....

....and then that will lead to guess what?


NG is only in the wealthy, majority white areas. Just saying.

Let us know if/when you have something substantive to say.


Nope, just laughing at you. There is nothing substantive to discuss with you.


You sound like an idiot.

“Devoid of facts” … huh?
We know what the guy in the WH thinks of us and we have seen what he can do to us for even a little paint on the street.

We know what he is capable of because we have seen it. We are not Minneapolis - we don’t have a state. We are not Chicago - we don’t have a state.

Why, why, why would you want to poke the bear, especially now when the “bear” is limping along injured. There is nothing more dangerous.

But maybe you don’t care about your neighbors being scooped up? Or maybe you think JLG will be less antagonistic?

You all realize that this was just a primary right? There will be other candidates to vote for in November. Not saying they will win, but sooner or later DC will have to figure out how to mobilize a 2nd party.

I posted on the other page that I wasn't a huge Bowser fan, but she really did well with Trump by not inflaming him -- which protected all of us. That's exactly what Mamdani has done.

Cool! Can't wait for Trump to end Home Rule just to spite her when she starts talking big game specifically to piss him off!

THat look at me attitude puts a target on the backs of so many of our neighbors. Many of us have seen - first hand or by video - the early bone chilling ICE raids in DC. She doesn’t seem to care or maybe she doesn’t know (which is in itself a HUGE problem ) that the “look at me” attitude is going to hurt a lot of people in DC, directly and in the most meaningful way. I feel sick to my stomach about what I fear will come.

I hope and pray I am wrong.


Curious if this poster ever witnessed one of these incidents in person.



Hi- I am the poster who is frightened about what’s to come. Thank you for the question. I have seen one raid in front of an apartment building and seen videos of 2 other raids, and the videos were blocks away from my apartment. It is sickening.

The higher taxes go, the more incentive people have to avoid them.

Yeah, all my neighbors were promoting McDuffie here in Ward 3. I voted for JLG, personally. PP saying they’re going to move is hilarious. Don’t let the door hit you on the way out.


How soon before Trump revokes home rule? Next week? Next month? Feels inevitable. He's going to get nothing done in Congress and he likes obsessing over fountains and crime and monuments.
