Shouldn't a city / state be allowed to TRY to clean up their own mess before the Feds step in?

People will be saying Trump and Barr are playing 12d chess by showing them for what they are. Yeah sure, put the good citizens at risk because you don’t want to clamp down on these SOBs. Have they been designated terrorists yet? Nope.

Tell me smarty pants... What is the right procedural call...? If you're so smart...

The Feds cannot come in without permission from the state governor...

I suggest you look up Cathleen Blanco's big conundrum during Huricane Katrina...

Lol, this has happened so many times...

The feds actually commandeered the state of Alabama's national guard so they destroy Alabama's school system at gunpoint.

The state government isn't "refusing"...it's delaying.

That's some major mental gymnastics, right there. Like, Olympic level.

Let me guess... During desegregation...? Democrat President no doubt...

You actually think Trump is going to go into a liberal shithole like Seattle and bail them out...

Eisenhower sent in the Army to desegregate Little Rock Central High School.

GHW Bush sent in the military to help quell the L.A. riots in 1992.

Democrats?

Live here for a little while. The mental gymnastics displayed by the leadership here makes Mary Lou Retton seem like the Mark Sanchez butt-fumble.

As outrageous as it may be (and it clearly is), I suspect this "takeover" is being a bit overstated.


It is. It's a 2 block area.

The neighborhood that got taken over is the same neighborhood that voted a Socialist to the city council. Even most people in Seattle think they are crazy.

But it wouldn't shock me if the city rolled over and succumbed to the demands of the extremists. I kind of hope they do so they can experience the fallout first hand.

It seems you have conveniently left off JFK, Roosevelt, and LBJ.

None of that compares to Seattle.

Seattle is having a peaceful transition of power.

The duly elected mayor freely gave up a section of the city without use of force to an opposition party.

The appointed Chief of Police ordered the facility vacated to peacefully make way for the Mayor's ordered peaceful transition.

There is no insurrection. There is no conflict. Local police and local government packed their shite and left and handed over the keys.
