Crime in Washington, D.C., is totally out of control. Local “youths” and gang members, some only 14, 15, and 16-years-old, are randomly attacking, mugging, maiming, and shooting innocent Citizens, at the same time knowing that they will be almost immediately released. They are not afraid of Law Enforcement because they know nothing ever happens to them, but it’s going to happen now! The Law in D.C. must be changed to prosecute these “minors” as adults, and lock them up for a long time, starting at age 14. The most recent victim was beaten mercilessly by local thugs. Washington, D.C., must be safe, clean, and beautiful for all Americans and, importantly, for the World to see. If D.C. doesn’t get its act together, and quickly, we will have no choice but to take Federal control of the City, and run this City how it should be run, and put criminals on notice that they’re not going to get away with it anymore. Perhaps it should have been done a long time ago, then this incredible young man, and so many others, would not have had to go through the horrors of Violent Crime. If this continues, I am going to exert my powers, and FEDERALIZE this City. MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!
Give everything but the parks, monuments and federal buildings back to Maryland. There will be no one left to vote in presidential elections, saving 3 EV each election from the Rats.
Well, if 95% of D.C. residents are Democrats—I’m pretty much fine with what’s happening.
They voted for this.
Make the Federal Triangle a Federal territory under direct control of Congress.
Exactly.
Is that land, excepting Federal buildings and monuments, enough to create another house seat in Maryland?

Is there anything he can do besides randomly lash out? Like Exec Orders, DOJ action, federal marshals, federal gov agency orders, etc. to change things?
I agree the territory should be given back to the states that it was carved from. Those boundary are just “decorative” at this point and even early on. A 10 mile x 10 mile square....wow....creative...
D.C. residents should not be allowed to vote in Federal elections. D.C. is not a state.
And no appellate courts there either.
IMO no one should LIVE in DC.
It should be 100% government buildings and government land.
Use imminent domain and take it ALL, and clear the entire place out and then demolish nearly every residential structure.
is it them again Yogi?
Just give it to Maryland like they gave the southwestern part to Virginia in the early 1800s (I think 1840-ish!). Georgetown can go back to being a small town.
Why not crush the criminals and upset that 95% by doing so?
I want all the people removed there to stop Democrats from eventually making it a state.
Make the Federal Triangle a Federal territory under direct control of Congress.
Congress is not going to want to deal with it so they're better off giving the authority to the President.
Didn’t Virginia get back most of their part of the district?
Fascinating.
This should go over well with the cabal, who perpetrated a fake constitution on D.C in 1871.
I’d like to see the low IQ cabal try to block Trump’s move with their flimsy little constitution.
With Trump running the place, and Jeanine Pirro as AG, things could get interesting.
