Michael Popok: Trump's Stunt BLOWS UP as DC GOES NUCLEAR on HIM (DC's Other Attorney General Sues Trump Admin)



In breaking news, the “other” attorney general in DC, Brian Schwalb, has just filed a new injunction lawsuit against Trump, Pam Bondi, the Department of Justice and others, seeking to stop Trump’s unconstitutional abuse of power and violation of DC’s Home Rule rights to self-governance, by taking over its police department and sidelining its mayor. Michael Popok reports on the 33 page complaint and what will happen next in short order, as DC refuses to allow its sovereignty to be violated by a rogue president.

I was hoping someone would do this. He has no valid excuse to take over. It’s a fake emergency, and it needs to be stopped before he tries it on the whole country.

LOL, that headline and thumbnail are ridiculous.

They're just missing "APOCALYPTIC" and "MELTDOWN".
