What we’re seeing in the Democrat cities is a total breakdown of civilization, deliberately!
I smile when democrats meet their demise because of what they voted for.
A lot of this is due to judges making cities ungovernable.
To say that Big Cities can’t elect good people, that’s bunk. New York City elected Rudy Giuliani as mayor, and for 20 years New York became a safe and prosperous place.
Future federal judges below the Supreme Court level might be paid by the case.
Cities might get to annually decide which federal judges will get to serve their particular city. Judge Boise might not get much work.
This is a feature in Communist societies- allow the crimes to be committed, but prosecute and jail the people who defend themselves.

In 1984, de Blasio worked for the Urban Fellows Program at the New York City Department of Juvenile Justice. In 1987, shortly after completing graduate school at Columbia, de Blasio was hired to work as a political organizer by the Quixote Center in Maryland. In 1988, he traveled with the Quixote Center to Nicaragua for 10 days to help distribute food and medicine during the Nicaraguan Revolution. De Blasio was an ardent supporter of the ruling socialist government, the Sandinista National Liberation Front, which was opposed by the Reagan administration at the time. After returning from Nicaragua, de Blasio moved to New York City, where he worked for a nonprofit organization focused on improving health care in Central America. He continued to support the Sandinistas in his spare time and joined a group called the Nicaragua Solidarity Network of Greater New York, which held meetings and fundraisers for the Sandinista political party. De Blasio’s introduction to city politics came in 1989, when he worked as a volunteer coordinator for David Dinkins’ mayoral campaign. Following the campaign, de Blasio was an aide in City Hall. In 1990, he described himself as an advocate for democratic socialism when asked about his goals for society.
U.S. Representative Charles Rangel tapped de Blasio to be his campaign manager for his successful 1994 reelection bid. In 1997, he was appointed to serve as the regional director for the United States Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) for New York and New Jersey under the administration of President Bill Clinton. As the tri-state region’s highest-ranking HUD official, de Blasio led a small executive staff and took part in outreach to residents of substandard housing. In 1999, he was elected to be a school board member for Brooklyn School District 15. In 2000, he served as campaign manager for Hillary Clinton’s successful United States Senate bid.

Que up the disco music. The USA is now one massive "That 70's Show".
We just witnessed another TET offensive in Gaza. Wow, so many parallels to that time period.
Back in the day before globalism, cities were messed up but they produced goods that the rest of the USA needed. Money flowed in and products flowed out. Now cities are money sucks and ghettos. We offshored wealth creation to the 3rd world now WE are the 3rd world. See how that works?
I am worried each city will be mini Gaza and every now and then they will forray out into the burbs “to get some”.
Was over half way through before Schlichter came to mind. Less acerbic than usual, but no less sensible. My favorite line:
“I understand that consequences are racist and transphobic and part of the patriarchy, but they’re also a thing.”
Pick a random auto manufacturing plant in the U.S. today … the Honda plant in Marysville (Ohio), for example. Then find a location in New York City or Chicago where anything close to that size could fit.
That’s why they call liberalism a mental disorder.
Been saying that for years. Cities are the shxtholes of society. Rampant crime, drugs, homelessness all run by liberal scum. I bypass every city possible in my travels.
He’s always so good.
I never said it doesn’t, so stop posting misleading crap.
New York City, on the other hand, does not — and anyone who has been there, or even just looked at an aerial photo of the place, would know that. You can’t even build a Dollar General store there without tearing down something else.
“...but NY is infected with too many Rats and illegals...”
So are the hellholes of PA, IL, NJ, MD, CT, MI, WA, OR etc etc etc. Sad comment on societal “progress”.
