Inside Trump's DC crackdown: Swarms of agents and arrests for
minor offenses

One night last week, police officers in Washington stopped a
man carrying a designer handbag after spotting a small, clear
plastic bag poking out of it, which they suspected might
contain marijuana.

It was the kind of encounter that is a staple of local police
work, only this time the officers who asked to look inside the
bag were accompanied by agents from five separate federal law
enforcement agencies, including the FBI and the Secret
Service, according to records filed in a local court.

. . .

While the two-week effort has turned up guns and drugs,
records from Washington’s Superior Court show it has also
included federal agents converging in large numbers on
low-level crimes such as marijuana use and public alcohol
consumption, cases that have seldom been a priority for U.S.
law enforcement agencies tasked with targeting drug
traffickers and gunrunners.

D.C. mayor: "Masked ICE agents" and out-of-town National Guard
are ineffective

<https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/politics-news/bowser-trump-police-takeover-lower-dc-crime-national-guard-ice-rcna227582>

Mayor Muriel Bowser says Trump's surge of federal law
enforcement has lowered crime in D.C.

The Democratic mayor also said the presence of masked ICE
agents and National Guard members “is not working.”

So which is it? Is the overwhelming surge in personnel worth it?

If calling out the National Guard is so effective why didn't
Trump do in on Jan 6?

Trump Says ‘One Really Violent Day’ Would End Property Crime

The remarks were the latest example of his praise for
executive power and force in imposing order, this time over
crimes the F.B.I. said last week were falling.`

Former President Donald J. Trump mused on Sunday about “one
really violent day” as an answer to what he has described as a
plague of unchecked property crime in American cities.

“One rough hour — and I mean real rough,” Mr. Trump said. “The
word will get out and it will end immediately.”

The remarks, at a campaign rally in Erie, Pa., were the latest
variation on a longtime theme for Mr. Trump: An explicit
embrace of executive power and police force in the interest of
imposing order, or suspending the rule of law to address
various societal ills.

He has in the past urged law enforcement to be rougher when
making arrests, called for the summary execution of
shoplifters, and said he would not be a dictator “except for
Day 1.”

OMG.. Are you serious? Trump is actually enforcing the law?

Yet, you have a problem with that?

In a nut shell, that is the problem with liberals. they want all these
laws...
they just don't want them to actually apply unless and until they can use
them against their political enemies.

Because last time I looked the drug laws weren't "minor crimes" the least of them involves jail time.

Sounds serious to me.

Well he has a point. The liberal policy of just letting them steal whatever they want certainly hasn't reduced crime. If anything it's given people the power to steal basically at will while their victims can do nothing about
it. Did it reduce such occurrences of theft.. or compounded by basically
giving people a license to steal?

Yea, I can see where liberals might have an issue with the rule of law and actually applying and enforcing the law.

If you're so opposed to it.. then get with your buddies and introduce legislation decriminalizing such crimes. Then I can legally rip off Walmart
and drive under the influence as well.

They just need to break into the

THEN they can only of "American patiriot"

Like thd 73 boxes of government

certainly hasn't reduced crime. If anything it's

How mucu of what the Jan 6 crowd
stole from the Capitol ever got recovered?

He also said he'd end the Ukraine war in 24 hours.

Remember how Trump told police
to "rough'em up" when making arrests?

Funny the MAGAs weren't echoing
that when Trump was being arrested......





Trump tells cops they should rough people
up more during arrests. "Please, don�t be
too nice," he said, to laughter from the crowd.

Yep, most people who shoot others with a gun are denied bail.
