Officers in Washington’s Metropolitan Police Department can now assist federal immigration authorities. This is a turning point for the liberal-leaning city government that comes as Trump continues to flex federal control over the city.

Nazis have taken Washington DC!!! This would have been a grave headline in 1943, but in 2025, just as American as apple pie and pickup trucks.

Then do they believe the threat and violence is real or are they selling out or sabotaging from within?

Insurrectionists can't be president. Either #J6 wasn't an insurrection, or the Constitution isn't the Law. Or calling him "president" is providing aid and comfort to a Traitor. Those are the only 3 options.

Does anyone else watch his press conferences where he rambles on and on and obviously lying? I want to know what’s going on in the heads of the people in the room with him. How can our country have lost so many people with values? Genuine question.

On what basis is DC a "liberal-leaning city"? Yes they vote Dem, but Dems are not particularly liberal. And when have cops *anywhere* ever been liberal-leaning?

I’m a social worker (LCSW) and need 40 CEUs to renew my license every two years. It keeps me current with updates to our profession. It’s seems reasonable that those who protect and serve us do the same.

There were 12,000 murders in 1946 Germany for a reason. Neighbors were finally able to remove the monsters in their midst. History will repeat itself, and this time, the monster hunters have internet and phone cameras to assist them.

By "liberal leaning" do you mean "follow the law?" Your org is working overtime to make DJT look like an actual leader, instead of a gangland boss.

I don't think folks quite get it. For DECADES these white supremacist POSs have been infiltrating our politics, our judiciary, our armed forces, AND our local police. What we are witnessing is the execution of a plan that was put into place during the Reagan years. It may be too late to stop it.

So per Noem (and others) immigrants are the ones committing the alleged crimes (the crime rate is actually down, though there are some rough neighborhoods in DC). The fact is, immigrants are less likely to commit crimes than non-immigrants. A long-held statistic - from back when we had them. 🙄
