For years, Washington, D.C.’s so-called leaders resigned themselves to the idea that crime was inevitable. Then came President Donald Trump, who saw a problem and took the novel approach of actually doing something about it — sending in the National Guard to restore order in the capital.
The result? For the first time in ages, D.C. has gone seven straight days without a single homicide.
The result? For the first time in ages, D.C. has gone seven straight days without a single homicide.
According to
Fox45, the capital has also seen carjackings decrease by 83%, “robberies by 46%, car thefts by 21%, and overall violent crime is down 22%.”

Of course that simple truth runs counter to everything the left has preached for years. They’ve championed defunding the police, smeared law enforcement as systemically racist, and sneered at Trump’s efforts to make Washington not just safe, but livable again. In fact, they’ve told us for days now that Trump’s efforts actually make D.C.
unsafe.
The Center for American Progress (CAP)
wrote that “these deployments … fail to address the district’s real public safety priorities.” CAP argued that the deployment of the National Guard “will threaten public safety in the nation’s capital.”
D.C. Attorney General Brian Schwalb
said the deployment “undermines public safety” while one D.C. resident, Mara Lasko, told CNN that she doesn’t think the National Guard makes people feel safer.

That’s why the left is furious about the National Guard in Washington. Not because it failed — but because it works. It showed the country that with real leadership, you can stop violence, you can have order, and you can have nice things — but you won’t get those nice things with a Democrat in power.
“I don’t think they’re actually doing anything productive to make our city a safer place,” Lasko
said.
Of course the data disproves their opinions.
But their outrage was never really about the National Guard — or police in general — making the streets safer. Nobody actually opposes less homicides, less carjackings, or safer neighborhoods. What they oppose is what those results
prove.
Commentary:
This an accurate assessment. The sowing of chaos is one of the methods of and avenue to control of a populace. DSA Marxist Democrats want to RULE, not govern. It has been their path to riches for themselves, and chaos for their constituents. California, Illinois and New York State illustrate the point.
DSA Marxist Democrat ringleaders in DC are obviously extremely upset. Hopefully the fences reaping the profits are caught soon enough. Although I doubt it. I don’t think the National Guard is allowed on the capital grounds.
Even Mayor Bowser had to admit crime was down, but said DC could have done that by themselves if they had 500 more cops.
Bowser failed to talk about how no cops want to work there, the restrictions placed on cops, the lenient juvenile crime laws, the lack of prosecution by the city DA, and the defund the cops movement, all which happened on her watch.
When you don’t allow the police serve and protect citizens and property, refuse to punish criminals and don’t allow citizens to protect themselves or their property, you are, in fact, laying the foundations to created a police state.
That is exactly what the Soros & CPUSA funded DSA Marxist Democrats want.
