“President Trump takes bold measures to address a crime outside the control that Washington has been afflicted for a very long time. But instead of supporting what should be a procedure from the two parties to make the capital safe again, Democrats are burying their heads in the sand, denying a problem, and bearing determination to the serious criminals that intimidate it.”
“The residents of the capital know that the reality on the ground – the crime was out of control, and the actions of President Trump make the city safer. The left’s refusal to support popular issues on a large scale with the American public – such as stopping violent crime – is the reason that their approval rankings are at its lowest historical levels and will continue to go into.”
Among the Democrats in the House of Representatives who submit the joint decision are representatives of Jimmy Raskin from Maryland and Robert Garcia from California and Del. Eleanor Holmes Norton from the province of Colombia, while Senator Chris van Holin, DMD, in the upper statement of the Judicial Committee.

In any case, there is no federal emergency that justifies such a acquisition even if the Congress sought to use the rule of law for its impact,” he stressed.
