At least the high-capacity assault blog posts are legal again. It was scary without them.

□ [“Homeless Encampments Are Already Being Cleared Out of Washington, DC"]

And they're still arresting people, I think they're up to over 240 now.  And removing the homeless camps, it's like they're demonstrating to everyone that it's not as difficult to do this as leftists always said it was.  Of course the left will only do it to gain power because that's the real priority.  Even looking good is less important, as we see here.

I wonder how long it will be before some Democrat mayor starts doing this.  Even now, we know they won't do it to help their citizens, it'll probably just put them on the fast track for the 2028 election.  But at some point it will be noticed that Trump is doing more to actually help poor people and blacks in a Democrat-run city than Democrats are.  And then they might start asking more questions about what Democrats are really into.

I do keep saying that I think Trump is doing too much right away, especially when we aren't seeing much in the way of concrete results, but this is a definite exception.  It will noticeably improve life in the city and provide an example for others to follow.  Even the media has to admit Americans support cutting down on crime.  I'm blanking on the term but this shows how Trump is shifting our collective mentality towards something more civilized and less leftist.  It should never have come to this but it's how Democrats wanted it.

They're even trying to file their idiotic lawsuits to somehow stop this.  AG Pam Bondi has appointed an 'emergency police commissioner' and a lawsuit has already been filed against that.  The judge sided with them and said she'd issue a restraining order of the DOJ didn't back down.  They'd rather stick with the dumb chick who doesn't even know what a 'chain of command' is.  Another lawsuit says this whole takeover is illegal and was given to a pet leftist judge.

□ [“Obama’s CIA Director John Brennan Follows Hillary — Calls for Trump to Get Nobel Prize"]

Why does this look like some sort of scheme?  First of all, they specifically ignore all the other places Trump has helped bring peace to this year.  Those are all non-white countries so leftists don't care, but that still happened.  Why is it so important to ignore non-white people, especially when talking about a Nobel?

This is coming out just after Democrat leaders are all acting like bullies and thugs, saying how they're going to ignore all the rules and fight back.  The timing indicates that this is a plan they've all agreed to.  At this point I have to wonder if they talked to Putin and he promised to not end the war just to prevent Trump from getting a Nobel.  They would appreciate that.

I have still avoided looking at any article on the meeting itself, I'll wait for another day or two before seeing if it actually made any difference.  But it seems very strange that the left is so universally against peace and, more importantly, have nothing else going on in their lives that matters.  They can't talk about how safe from crime they've always been in DC or how prices are rising at that their local supermarkets or declaring their support for all those dozens of genders they believe in?

The down side is, being Trump, it's totally believable that he wants a Nobel.  I hope he doesn't really care either way but there's no reason to assume that.  I hope the committee avoids nominating him at all and deliberately picks some freaky leftist no one's ever heard of, just to show how worthless the award is.  We need to be getting rid of all these elitist left icons and cornerstones for their ideal society and the Nobel is probably one of the most famous of those.  At least one of the oldest.

“These are Criminals who Support Crime” – Trump on Democrat-Funded Protestors Against DC Crime Crackdown

Ok, this is unusual, I just can't find anything else to write about.  No news events, no pop culture, not even anything about the music videos or comics I've looked at recently.  It's getting late so I'll just quit now.
