President Donald Trump stood in the White House press briefing room Monday morning, declaring it “Liberation Day in D.C.” and announcing that he was taking over Washington, D.C.’s police force. Invoking Section 740 of the District of Columbia Home Rule Act, a rarely used provision of federal law, Trump said he was placing the Metropolitan Police Department under direct White House control and deploying the D.C. National Guard into city streets.

Are we allowed to advocate for violence yet on lemmy.world? or are we still pretending we can reason with nazis? asking for a friend.

Violence is allowed when it is in self-defence.

Not unless you have a train ticket to DC already.

Then you've already taken too long. Are you waiting for a personal invitation?
