What have the Democrats done in the past Four years

AMERICA HELD HOSTAGE: This is how the Left campaigns to remove President Trump.

 

Things we thought were sacrosanct, the icons of our national identity, now are scorned. We can pretend that this doesn’t matter. They’re just statues, after all. But they do matter. Not for the pleasure they give the rioters so much as for the pain they inflict on patriots who love America.

 

Nor has it stopped with the vandalism. We’ve gone to the next level, with the looting and rioting. In the last month major cities have become unsafe, as rioters work out the logic of what “resistance” means. American stores lost hundreds of millions of dollars, and merchants boarded up their stores for protection. Nothing to see here, folks, said the liberal media, which gaslighted the looting and the boarded-up storefronts, and portrayed the riots as peaceful protests against an illegitimate president.

 

And that’s how to understand what is happening. We’re not to object to the riots because the bigger issue is defeating Trump. Nothing much else matters, and if an Antifa mob attacks a federal court building in Portland, don’t call this a riot. Say rather that it’s a campaign event, led by the good guys.

 

We’re in the middle of a chicken game, where the Left tells us they’ll let this go on as long as Trump is president. The liberal media will ignore the riots, the liberal mayors will tell the local police to stand down, the liberal prosecutors will promptly release anyone arrested. Try to defend yourself, and you’ll find yourself prosecuted.

 

The message is: this is what you’ll get, America, if you reelect Trump. Elect our guy, and the madness will stop, pronto. A Democratic president would forcefully suppress the riots without a peep from the press. But until then we’re held hostage.

 

They don’t even need a candidate. They can run Biden from his basement.

 

 

Read the whole thing.

WHY ARE DEMOCRAT-MONOPOLY CITIES SUCH CESSPITS OF VIOLENCE? 

 

86 Percent of Shootings in Oakland Go Unreported, Police Say.

 

 

 

 

Oakland’s last Republican mayor left office in 1977.

From your first link:

 

Worse, in an infuriating but sadly typical twist, the Seattle City Council exempted all government employees from their new tax. That’s right: The supposedly benevolent socialist city officials who thrust this upon their constituents made sure to carve out a giant exception for their peers on the taxpayer dime. 

According to OpenTheBooks.com, 601 city employees in Seattle earned $195,000 or more. Analysts found that “tree trimmers lopped off $160,604; the chief librarian made $197,704; electricians earned $271,070; electrical lineworkers made $307,387; and police officers earned up to $414,543.” The new payroll tax will not apply to any of these government employees or their peers otherwise drowning in taxpayer cash.

So, no, the city council’s new tax is most certainly not a “victory for working people.” It’s a tax imposed on working people by politicians who made sure to spare the government class from sharing any of the burden.

There hasn't been a Republican Chicago Mayoral candidate since 1983.  Bernard Epton the last one to try.  They don't even bother to run.

Since '99 they've gone to a runoff system with a winner declared once they have a majority of the vote.  So it's Dems running against other Dems.

The Most Corrupt States In America

Niall McCarthyContributorFORBES

FORBES-Feb 19, 2020,06:40am EST

 

A new report from the University of Chicago has shed light on the U.S. cities and states with the most public-sector corruption. Co-authored by UIC professor and political advisor Dick Simpson, the report is based on an analysis of public corruption statistics released by the U.S. Department of Justice. Across all states and Federal Judicial Districts in the United States, there have been 19,634 public corruption convictions over the past ten years. In 2018 alone, 695 public official, federal employees and government contractors were convicted of public corruption.

The research found that Chicago remains the most corrupt city in the United States with the Illinois-Northern Judicial District recording 1,750 public corruption convictions from 1976 to 2018. It was followed by Los Angeles with 1,547 and New York's Southern Judicial District with 1,360. The data also highlights the extent of the problem across all 50 states and the District of Columbia.

D.C. had the highest number of public corruption convictions per 10,000 inhabitants between 1976 and 2018 with 16.79. This is due to several factors such as a comparably low population but also because it is the center of national government and the location of the Department of Justice. Nearly all of the country's federal agencies are housed there with large staffs of government employees who are able to monitor and investigate offenses. Louisiana comes second on the list of per capita convictions with 2.62 per 10,000 inhabitants while Chicago's high number of offenses ensure Illinois comes third with 1.66.

The so-called liberals of today disgrace themselves and Mr. Lewis's memory with their hatred and violence.

 

Posters on this board who try to claim his legacy are phony, childish and transparent.

 

Repeating known lies and memes that only  demonstrate their own ignorance and do NOT advance any of the ideals that John Lewis stood for.

Women can legally do topless in NYC and have been able to for a long time. 

 

Quote

Most people don’t know that women have legally been allowed to go topless in New York City since 1992. In fact, to promote gender equality, the annual Go Topless Day hosts a parade of chest-baring men and women. This year, the parade falls on August 26th, but it’s fair game to pop your top at New York’s beaches, parks, and on the streets all year long.
