The U.S. military is preparing to activate several hundred National Guard troops in Washington, D.C., on Monday, a Defense Department official said. President Trump, who has repeatedly threatened a federal takeover of the nation’s capital, was expected to announce the deployment at a White House news conference on Monday.

Mr. Trump has claimed that crime is “totally out of control” in Washington, even though officials announced in January that violent crime in the city was at a 30-year low.

Revving up the fascism!
 
Just created a thread, mods can delete or merge.

From that:

Notice how this section is for Congress and NOT the president. But we all know a compliant MAGA congress won't give a shit.
 
I've asked mods to delete, please refer instead to

 
This sends a tingle up my small government conservative leg!

In the OP link the Taco hatin', anti American kommanyst rag NY Times says the DC crime rate is at a 30 year low. I'm sure Taco has facts and not just hysterics and hyperbole to put them in their place.

I wonder what made up authority he cited this time?
 
This is dress rehearsal for an American police state. ICE will be carrying out Trump’s orders nationwide all under the guise of liberating the country from something that doesn’t exist. Using fear of the other is back and in full force. Declare everything an emergency and soon martial law is in place. Then our rights are taken away for our own good as the government claims it is for our safety. Classic authoritarian methods to strip rights and create a police state. Our petty dictator president is playing strong man leader and if we let him get away with it we sign away all our rights and freedoms for the false perception of security.
 
The threads are only a minute apart. Merging would be best, I think.

I believe you have to request it. I don't think this site ever merges threads on its own.

I reported them for a while. Sometimes they merge them and sometimes they don't, so I don't bother with it anymore.
 
“The president falsely claimed”…that could rightfully and accurately be the beginning of the vast majority of headlines day in and day out when it comes to the man currently occupying the Oval Office..

Memphis has the highest murder rate in America. When do they get occupied by the army?
 
At his news conference Trump just said "I'm going to Russia Friday".

This is drunk uncle that never gets invited to Thanksgiving dinner again.
Let's hope it's not a Freudian slip. He may give Alaska back to Putin for 30 acres in Siberia and a mule to be named later.
