WASHINGTON, D.C. — Following the announcement that the president had ordered the federalization of law enforcement in the nation's capital, Washington, D.C., Mayor Muriel Bowser warned that Trump's crime-fighting measures would unfairly impact criminals.

President Trump ordered the National Guard into action to begin patrolling the streets of the District of Columbia following ongoing incidents of violent crime, causing the capital's mayor to sound the alarm that lawbreakers would disproportionately bear the brunt of the initiative.

"Why should fighting crime focus so much on criminals?" Bowser asked during a press conference. "It shouldn't come as a surprise to anyone that our fascist dictator ‘president' is taking action that will single out a particular people group in our city. He has a track record of doing it before, and now he's doing it to our criminals. We must stand up to this tyranny and protect the important role the criminal element plays in the fabric and tradition of our city. Our criminals deserve better."

Trump remained resolute in the face of Bower's opposition. "It's a big mess," he said. "Our beautiful nation's capital, full of gangs and criminals. We're going to clean it up, believe me. We'll do whatever it takes. National Guard, U.S. Marines, the Avengers. I have the authority to do all of it because I'm the President. Let's not forget the biggest criminals, ok? The Democrats. We'll put them behind bars where they belong. Maybe El Salvador."

At publishing time, Mayor Bowser had set up emergency aid shelters to provide help and comfort to criminals impacted by Trump's anti-crime policies.

Democrats are like enabling mothers whose children are always troubled, murderous yutes on the verge of turning their lives around.

The criminals want swivel rights not civil rights.

They want to swive; wiyth no bail, and no propsecutions for 24 YOA and under.

REallY?

“WASHINGTON, D.C............ Mayor Muriel Bowser warned that Trump’s crime-fighting measures would unfairly impact criminals. “

Mayor Bowser, I certainly hope so, the bastards have unfairly impacted the community of Washington D.C. for going on 70 years now.

U.S. Attorney for the District of Columbia Jeanine Pirro nailed the REAL issue of a lot of the crime in D.C. at a presser today:

“But they know that we can’t touch them, because the laws are weak,” she said. “I can’t touch you if you’re 14, 15, 16, 17 years old, and you have a gun.”

“We need to go after the DC Council and their absurd laws. We need to get rid of this concept of ‘no cash bail,’” she said. “We need to recognize that the people who matter are the law-abiding citizens,” Pirro added.”

14, 15, 16, and 17, year olds aren’t the same as they were 30 years ago. Age should make know difference. Those people are already doing adult things. Let their litte a**e* be tried the same as anyone else. When they kill somebody, they just aren’t biding their time until they are accepted into medical or law school. When the ahos pull the trigger, they aren’t thinking, damn, I screwed up. No medical school for me.

The Bee, doing perfect satire: the use of humor, irony, exaggeration, or ridicule to expose and criticize people’s stupidity or vices, particularly in the context of contemporary politics and other topical issues.

Now THERE is an idea I can get on board with.

The Bee has another one saying Trump to fight crime in DC is asking Congress to go home. It is funny...
