      I’d say he’s the biggest criminal to ever set foot in DC period.

      His rapsheet literally goes back decades and only continues to become more and more extensive.

      Write it on a hat and sell it, apparently that’s the only way “people” listen these days.

      >Glenn Kessler, who until recently was the Post’s fact-check columnist (he took the buyout), reported last week that the Post’s publisher, Will Lewis, last year asked him: “What should the Post do to appeal more to Fox News viewers?” Reporting the facts and then telling readers that facts don’t matter—or that any disagreement over them is just a matter of opinion—would seem an excellent start. The introduction of federal troops into Washington based on false information calls on Washington’s preeminent news source to demonstrate bravery. Early signs are not encouraging.

      It’s an editorial but at least someone is calling out the propaganda BS being thrown about.

      Trump will literally be executing his political enemies live on television, and someone will call it a distraction from the Epstein files.

      It can’t ALL be distraction, guys. Trump is trying to destroy democracy right now. THIS IS THEIR PLAN.

      Read the article: [https://archive.ph/tWFJN#selection-621.0-627.104](https://archive.ph/tWFJN#selection-621.0-627.104)

      >This is part of a national trend; according to the *Post,* homicides are down 30 percent nationwide, as are burglaries and robberies. Trump’s [federal takeover](https://archive.ph/o/tWFJN/https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2025/08/11/trump-presidency-news/) of the D.C. police and his deployment of the National Guard therefore have no justification in observable reality. Even Trump’s own FBI director, Kash Patel, in a hilariously off-message statement at the press conference announcing the deployment, [said](https://archive.ph/o/tWFJN/https://newrepublic.com/post/198981/donald-trump-fbi-chief-kash-patel-data-washington-dc-crime) that “the murder rate is on track to the be lowest in U.S. history.”

      >****************

      >His 34 felony counts don’t make him a person who made a mistake once, or even 34 times, and deserves a second chance. He’s someone who made a mistake once, or 34 times, then got a second chance, and is using it to commit more crimes. That he’s able to do so demonstrates a [lenience on the part of the Supreme Court](https://archive.ph/o/tWFJN/https://www.nytimes.com/2025/08/05/opinion/supreme-court-trump-administration.html) and an [impeachment-shy Republican Congress](https://archive.ph/o/tWFJN/https://www.msnbc.com/opinion/msnbc-opinion/trump-impeachment-democrats-congress-operation-anti-king-rcna200920) that puts the [District of Columbia Superior Court](https://archive.ph/o/tWFJN/https://www.dccourts.gov/superior-court) to shame. Where’s Inspector Javert when you really need him?

      >*****************

      >District court judges, Bonica noted, “see the evidence firsthand and hear directly from those affected.” They “overwhelmingly find the administration’s actions unlawful.” Appellate judges “split more evenly but still lean against the administration.” But “the Supreme Court—furthest from facts, closest to power—reverses almost automatically.”Thomas Edsall of *The New York Times*, who last week flagged that quotation, [calls](c:UsersJason%20LinkinsDownloadsing) the high court “a key enabler of President Trump’s agenda.” By “agenda” he means Trump’s illegalities.

      Trump is (one of) the most corrupt leader(s) in ~~American~~ World history and his corruption is just a tiny portion of the evil that makes this pathetic man.

      He’s destroying America’s economy and Americans are paying for it.

      He’s an unabashed sexual predator, of both women and children.

      He’s currently and intentionally violating the rights of immigrants and American citizens, subjecting them to early concentration camp conditions in ‚detention‘ centers, in violation of the Constitution, in violation of international law, and worthy of a criminal trial before The Hague.

      Trump has committed hundreds of felonies and is currently abusing his power and disrespecting the office he holds by using it has the biggest grift in US history, largely through the use of US taxpayer dollars.

    9. TheGOPisTheDeepState on

      Anything to distract from the Epstein files not being released. Trump is a rapist and pedophile of the United States. The crimes in DC are coming from inside the GOP White House, Congress, DOJ and FBI, SCOTUS and the federalist society.

    10. Face2FaceRecs on

      Some of the other misbehavior mentioned in the article that wouldn’t fit in my comment:

      >The gaudiest of Trump’s latest D.C. crimes involve personal enrichment, in apparent violation of the Constitution’s emoluments clauses. Qatar gave Trump a $400 million aircraft that’s being retrofitted (at a cost of another $400 million) into a replacement for Air Force One; when Trump leaves office, the aircraft will transfer to Trump’s presidential library. Qatar [also agreed](https://archive.ph/o/tWFJN/https://apnews.com/article/trump-qatar-deal-conflicts-saudi-arabia-emoluments-7379bee2e307d39bd43b534a05ae3207) to allow Trump to build a golf resort there. If these twin agreements don’t violate the [foreign emoluments clause](https://archive.ph/o/tWFJN/https://constitution.congress.gov/browse/essay/artI-S9-C8-3/ALDE_00013206/) (which reads “no Person holding any Office of Profit or Trust under them, shall, without the Consent of the Congress, accept of any present, Emolument, Office, or Title, of any kind whatever, from any King, Prince, or foreign State”) then it’s hard to imagine what does.

      >Nobody expects Trump will be called to account anytime soon because the Supreme Court last year [gave the president](https://archive.ph/o/tWFJN/https://www.supremecourt.gov/opinions/23pdf/23-939_e2pg.pdf) ludicrously broad and [ahistorical](https://archive.ph/o/tWFJN/https://newrepublic.com/article/183357/supreme-court-turns-president-king) immunity from prosecution in connection with his official actions. It’s much the same with Trump’s [various crypto scams](https://archive.ph/o/tWFJN/https://newrepublic.com/article/196187/trump-corruption-self-dealing-audacity-rapacity), which two months ago prompted Harvard political scientist Steven Levitsky to [tell *The Guardian*](c:UsersJason%20LinkinsDownloadsI%20have%20never%20seen%20such%20open%20corruption%20in%20any%20modern%20government%20anywhere), “I have never seen such open corruption in any modern government anywhere.” By comparison, we *have* seen violent crime before in the District, back in the 1990s, when the joke was that “D.C.” stood for “Dodge City.” I was here. Believe me, it was [much worse then](https://archive.ph/o/tWFJN/https://ocme.dc.gov/sites/default/files/dc/sites/ocme/publication/attachments/APPENDIX%20A%20-%2030%20year.pdf).

      From his crypto scams, to his taxpayer paid golf outings, to his side deals with countries that we may never hear about Trump’s reign is about corruption and power consolidation.

      He asked oil and gas companies for a billion dollar bribe to end renewable energy and many restrictions on that industry. He has openly attack renewable energy and has cleared the United States for more oil and gas extraction and coal mining. It doesn’t take a genus to figure out that the bribe was paid.

      Is the takeover of the DC police a distraction from the Epstein files? Absolutely. But, it’s also a dangerous power grab that cannot be allowed to go unchecked. It’s a game of whack-a-mole that we all must tirelessly play as if our freedom depends on it; because it does.

    13. VanceKelley on

      If Americans didn’t want a convicted criminal in the White House then they sure did vote stupidly in 2024.

    15. triker_whaleygirl on

      So the sexual predator in the Whitehouse with 34 felonies will he be arrested?? No! Fuck this noise!! sick of this guy. Can the states protect themselves from this bullshit?

    16. JustStuff03 on

      Do you know how you keep Congress from voting to release Epstein files? Call them illegitimate, ban them from stepping foot in DC, dissolve their offices and put in your FOX News besties to act as interim policy makers moving forward. Now Mike Johnson won’t have to pretend like he’s going to let a vote hit the floor.

    18. LeopoldLoeb on

      This is not a distraction from his wrongdoings… it’s just more of those wrongdoings.

    20. IdleRacey on

      My wife and I said the same when watching the news. Trump is the biggest criminal in DC. Might be the biggest criminal in the US.

    24. EFCFrost on

      Considering the treatment of capitol police during and post Jan 6, I’m amazed that they are going along with it.

    27. freedomandbiscuits on

      If only DC had a 747 to offer him then they could get his boot of their neck.

    28. kathryn2a on

      Trump’s and Epstein’s victims are vocal. These ladies need justice. Republicans, democrats and liberals involved need to be held accountable for their heinous crimes!

    29. apingoSpi on

      I believe it’s to have it set up so there can be no large protests in DC down the line. They will be able to arrest and prevent anyone from protesting in our capital by calling them criminals. I do hope I’m wrong.

    33. Tokyo-MontanaExpress on

      I wouldn’t be surprised if this was done in anticipation of meeting with Putin and handing Alaska back over to him. But mainly it’s a distraction from the Epstein files.

      *Coup, its a coup. The may not be active against „dissidents“ yet, but it reeks of pre-coup military positioning.
