Prioritizing special interests over citizens is proving to be what has been happening. Now we see it doesn't need to be that way. Make America Safe Again!!!

So, in DC alone, we are spending 1 million a day to have soldiers just hang around the place, yet, we are concerned about spending money to feed children in schools, or helping the homeless...

You misspelled “illegally deploying the military with false pretense of a nonexistent emergency to promote his fascist agenda” as “crime crackdown”

Is that an increase in cost or simply the cost of X soldiers a day wherever they are deployed?

And for the last week they are walking around carrying empty plastic bags as their mission is to pick up litter around a remarkably clean city. Trump spends with no accountability or conscious

imagine how $1M a day would go for healthcare for the homeless vets in DC. Getting them a safe place to stay and seeing mental health professionals. JFC the priorities of this nation are f'cked.

DC and LA were test cases for the tRump Regimes reign of terror plan for more US cities. The DOGE Gestapo raid on Government Agencies was a smoke screen; "Saving Money" has already seen a net loss- Military Ego parades and Ballrooms; "fired" government workers still getting paid; All to steal Info.

It is not a crime crackdown. It is a show of authoritarian force that does not respond to or serve the needs of DC residents.

these men and women could be doing something useful and productive while deployed, like building simple utilitarian homeless shelters, repairing government buildings and spaces, etc… but instead they are just front line political fodder for our maniacal dear leader…

For that amount, you could feed, house and provide any urgent health care for the homeless you are *disappearing* Where's the humanity?

The experiment is complete. Crime does drop with a cop at every corner. Duh. Fund DC’s police department instead of this show of force by trump’s Revolutionary Guard.

It’s not a “mission” or a “crime crackdown.” It’s a military occupation. Stop being puppets for fascist propaganda.
