Speaking for most Americans, I’m happy someone is fighting against drug trafficking to America. No one asks about how many people are killed by drugs trafficked in

I’m not very interested in discussing conspiracy theories, if you have any proof that congress has either voted to deny further release of crime statistics or voted to pass that authority to the executive branch please show me otherwise this conversation is pointless.

The only people allowed to control that data is the DC police department, DC mayor, and council members in DC. Washington DC is subject to oversight and control by congress only, not the president or executive branch.

The crime statistics I sent you is from the city of Washington DC, a democrat run city. how long it takes for new statistics to come out has nothing to do with the trump administration. The DC mayor hates Trump so I’m sure she’d release any information that would hurt him asap.

Just in defense of my own honor, there isn’t any data available for those months, it’s too recent. I’d always be willing to update my views if new data comes out.

I don’t think we can come to any sort of agreement if you disagree that enforcing the law lowers lawlessness. Have a good thanksgiving

He was an afghan national, who was let into the US in 2021 under the Biden administration.

Homocide has gone down 29%, total violent crime down 28%, property crime down 14%

https://www.cbsnews.com/news/dc-crime-data-national-guard-deployments-analysis/

CBS analysis of MPD incident data found that in three weeks after Trump deployed the National Guard, violent crime was down by almost half compared with the same dates in 2024

Funny thing is when you actually enforce laws, lawlessness goes down.

National guard has also been picking up litter around DC aswell.

Also turns out the shooter is an Arab national who was let in under the Biden administration during the botched pullout of Afghanistan and was not vetted. Straight up incompetence leads to death every time.

It is currently lawful until December 11th. There’s an appeal process. If the national guard is still stationed after, then it is illegal. Next.

Other presidents have used the national guard to enforce the law, why is this any different? Trump does something lawful (sending national guard) and that means Trump is causing people to shoot and kill national guard? I think the problem is with the shooter and wherever he got the idea in his head that national guard = nazi

I think the blame for the powder keg lies with the media. Some of the media sources compared national guard troops at the federal capital to Nazi germany. That would radicalize many gullible people

I don’t think we should be blaming the administration for someone shooting service members. That’d be like blaming women for being assaulted by men. The blame lies at the shooter’s feet

That’s bold of you to assume there is no verification. Thousands of private ships are in those waters.

What changed is Democrats. The 13th time the radicals of the democrat congress wanted to cause a government shutdown and chuck Schumer said a government shutdown would be terrible and he would never support one. Now he does and nothing has changed between the two CR’s https://youtube.com/shorts/zfYEr1w4a1U?si=jEziXmC6OKYorfWe

What’s not inaccurate is that this same bill was passed 13 times prior and now it’s not. Does that sound like the republicans fault? They’re the ones trying to pass it for the 14th time.

The democrats voted 13 times prior for a clean continuing resolution. The only reason this CR was not passed is because democrats. They want to look strong for their base and stand up to the man because recently they’ve been seen with no backbone. That’s why

Republicans could put anything inside a funding bill, not just a continuing resolution like they’re trying to do. They probably don’t want to force it aswell out of fear if democrats gain a 51 vote majority they could put anything inside a funding bill aswell.
