Expect more stories like this as election season approaches:

• Kudos to Washington, DC, Mayor Muriel Bowser for pushing to roll back criminal justice reforms she once backed. Too bad President Joe Biden passed on the chance to block them.

  The background: In the wake of the George Floyd protests in 2020, Bowser the next year signed onto a sweeping temporary package of laws that limited police use of force, reduced union representation in disciplinary hearings, mandated anti-racism and anti-white-supremacy training and more.

  In 2022, the radical City Council passed a permanent version; Bowser criticized but did not veto it. Then bipartisan majorities in the US House and Senate voted to override (Congress has that right for all DC statutes) — but Biden refused to go along, as he was still pandering to the left on crime.

  This year, he did agree to override another extreme DC “reform” — plainly because soaring crime has voters in an uproar nationwide. The issue’s big in DC, too: Homicides are up 33% year over year; robberies, 70% and overall violent crime, 41%. The town’s also plagued by shoplifting rings and open-air drug markets.

  And morale in the city’s police force has plummeted. Hence Bowser’s call to repeal the 2022 law, which she says was “well-intentioned” but made communities “less safe,” as local thugs now believe “you can commit a brazen crime and get away with it.”

We love the "anti-racism and anti-white-supremacy training" the media throws in there, because we all know who was were shooting minority yutes. This year, too, as homicides climbed by 33%.

And the "local thugs" don't have to "believe" they can be brazen - they can see it with their own eyes. States Attorneys and District Attorneys refuse charges, release arrestees without bail, and parole hardened criminals by waiting until victims or detectives are too old, moved away or deceased to contest it.

Voters aren't exactly fed up, because they'll still vote for democrats in lockstep. But it won't be the same democrats and that scares the ones in office who might have to apply for college professorships at Harvard with Groot.
