I'm gonna drop this here, because of what Trump has said. Context to follow:Trump says the Department of Justice will immediately surge federal officials to Chicago to fight violent crime, says Americans need to hold their local leaders accountable pic.twitter.com/5xKZpfZy53— Jeff Mason (@jeffmason1) July 22, 2020
He's talking about deploying 150 federal law enforcement [officers] to Chicago. The police force in Chicago is over 12,000 people. He's talking about deploying maybe the equivalent of 1% of their ordinary active police force. This is fluff. This is politics.
NEWS: Trump says he's announcing a "surge" of federal law enforcement agents into US cities, including Chicago and "other cities." He named Albuquerque as well.— Meredith Lee (@meredithllee) July 22, 2020
Albuquerque?
A) he thinks he's in a Bugs Bunny cartoon.
B) he thinks he's gonna bust Walter White.
I think A) is more likely.
He shoulda toined left.
ReplyDeleteI don't know what's going on here. It may be the Sheriff thumbing his note at the Guv. Or maybe somebody saw a way to get some quick federal money.
