@nbcwashington: President Donald Trump has taken control of the District of Columbia's law enforcement and ordered National Guard troops to deploy onto the streets of the nation's capital, arguing the extraordinary moves are in response to an urgent public safety crisis. On Monday, he threatened to do the same in large cities such as New York, Baltimore, and Chicago. His rhetoric echoed that used by conservative politicians going back decades who have denounced American cities, especially those with majority non-white populations or led by progressive politicians, as lawless or crime-ridden and in need of outside intervention.

Trump sign the Big Bill . A bill that when it carries out, the deficit will be higher than our defense budget.

Pumpkin Spice Palpatine’s rhetoric about imposing his will on Democratic-run cities is not merely a policy stance. It signals that political opposition could be treated as grounds for federal punishment. By singling out entire communities based on their voting patterns, he blurs the line between governance and retribution. He casts millions of Americans not as citizens to be served but as adversaries to be subdued. This is not “law and order”; it is the language of an internal political war.

Maybe instead of retaliating against lawful blue states, Mr. Trump should tackle crises in deeply struggling red states like Alabama, Arkansas, and Tennessee; places where violent crime, especially gun-related deaths, are alarmingly high, and where public education remains underfunded and underperforming. Yet he persists in punitive theatrics, acting more like an authoritarian than a leader trying to solve real problems🙄
