   is-helping-them-fight-crime-n3805741   
      
   As the Democrats and the Pravda Media are having an absolute meltdown over   
   Trump's efforts to fight crime in Washington, D.C., there is one group in   
   particular who are breathing a sigh of relief: the police in the District.   
      
   You can easily understand why. The police are on the front lines, dealing   
   with criminals and victims every day. Irate citizens wonder why they are   
   forced to be victims, and criminals laugh in the faces of police just   
   trying to do their jobs.   
      
   The current Pravda Media line is that there is no crime problem in   
   Washington--it's a MAGA conspiracy--and all the usual suspects are   
   screaming "LIAR!" at Donald Trump. It shouldn't surprise us that the same   
   people who report as gospel the statistics from the Gaza Health Ministry   
   are reporting crime statistics fraudulently compiled by a suspended   
   political appointee at the Police Department.   
      
   Believe it or not, millions of people still believe what they read in the   
   newspaper and are told by "mainstream" reporters. Peter Baker of The New   
   York Times KNOWS that the statistics in DC are juked--he has the resources   
   of one of the most powerful media outlets in the world--and still claims   
   that there is a "nonexistent crime crisis" in DC.   
      
   Even if you believed the phony stats, DC is one of the most dangerous   
   cities in America and, indeed, the world. While not Mogadishu--a place   
   that my own city, Minneapolis, is trying to emulate--it is more dangerous   
   than Bogota, Mexico City, or Islamabad. While no doubt many liberals see   
   the crime as culturally enriching, ordinary people prefer not to get   
   carjacked and assaulted, no less murdered.   
      
   Many of the loudest voices objecting to the federal takeover of criminal   
   justice in DC were the authors of the very policies that led to this   
   crisis. To put it bluntly, they hate the police, want them defunded,   
   hamstrung them, and demoralized the police force so badly that the force   
   is understaffed by 800 officers.   
      
   Those National Guard troops Trump is deploying--they pretty much get the   
   District's police force up to its authorized strength. It's hardly an   
   invasion, and they wouldn't be necessary at all if the DC politicos let   
   the police do their jobs.   
      
   We are at the point where it is hardly an exaggeration to say that the   
   Pravda Media and the left are at war with ordinary Americans. It is, I   
   think, an expression of rage that we are not following their lead and have   
   had the gall to elect Donald Trump as President of the United States.   
      
   How else to explain the embrace of MS 13 and Tren de Aragua gang members   
   as model citizens--not that they are citizens or even legal residents--and   
   their outpouring of hatred toward law enforcement officers just trying to   
   clean up our streets? They are angry, and want our lives to suck.   
      
   As liberals compare police officers who are just trying to keep people   
   safe to slave patrols and the National Guard to fascist troops imposing   
   authoritarian control, they wonder why most Americans are turning away   
   from them in disgust.   
      
   When faced with a choice between Donald Trump and sexual predators,   
   murderers, carjackers, and muggers, the left will always choose the   
   latter. For them it is an easy choice--so easy that they instantly make up   
   phony statistics, howl in outrage, and declare the end of democracy while   
   Trump is still speaking.   
      
   There are a few dissenters from The Narrative™--all of whom were directly   
   assaulted. When the crime hits them, they change their tune, but until   
   that happens, there is no reasoning with them.   
      
   The apparent insanity of the establishment left is not what it seems. They   
   are not so much disconnected from reality--they know they are lying when   
   they trot out their phony statistics and fake outrage--but rather are   
   taking part in a coordinated psychological operation intended to convince   
   people of a reality that doesn't exist.   
      
   Is it working? Yes, and no. Millions of people have been slowly waking up   
   to the fact that their elite "experts" hate them and lie constantly. But   
   millions more, mostly coddled upper-middle-class overeducated liberals,   
   still believe what they read in the newspapers and magazines they grew up   
   reading.   
      
   There is no denying that Pravda Media and the Democrats are lying to   
   Americans--all it takes is a bit of curiosity and a willingness to spend   
   15 minutes checking out what they are saying. But most people don't, and   
   in a sane world, they wouldn't have to. News sources spewing nothing but   
   propaganda are not supposed to be the norm in democratic societies.   
      
   Unfortunately, we are losing our democracy. Only it is Trump who is trying   
   to save it, not the Democrats or the left.   
      
      
   --   
   November 5, 2024 - Congratulations President Donald Trump.  We look   
   forward to America being great again.   
      
   We live in a time where intelligent people are being silenced so that   
   stupid people won't be offended.   
      
   Every day is an IQ test. Some pass, some, not so much.   
      
   Thank you for cleaning up the disasters of the 2008-2017, 2020-2024 Obama   
   / Biden / Harris fiascos, President Trump.   
      
   Under Barack Obama's leadership, the United States of America became the   
   The World According To Garp.  Obama sold out heterosexuals for Hollywood   
   queer liberal democrat donors.
