Q: Does anyone have a link to an article or history of how Washington, D.C. was controlled over the life of the US? Trying to develop talking points for the liberals I know who are absolutely freaked out about Trump's "dictatorial control issues."

And liberal heads explode after Trump's federalization of police in DC. Any great takes (ahem) besides Dana Bash?

Why do I think those "Jewish" names were more likely used by Jew-haters than Jews.

No links but until 1973 it was Congressionally Controlled, Article I Sec. 8. 1973 the Home Rule Act gave most of the powers to a local government.

Surprise: ABC News Anchor Blows Up Corporate Media’s Outrageous Narrative on DC Crime as She Reveals Her and Her Co-Worker’s Harrowing Experiences (VIDEO)

[Kyra Phillips] then revealed her own harrowing encounter with crime in the nation’s capital. 

“It was within the last two months that I actually was jumped while walking just two blocks down from here,” Phillips explained.

She further blew up the narrative closed by revealing one of her co-workers was a victim THIS MORNING. Think Trump’s announcement was timely?

“This morning, one of my co-workers said her car was stolen just a block away from the bureau,” Phillips said. “So, we can talk about the numbers going down, but crime is happening every single day because we’re all experiencing it firsthand while working and living here.

I'm just wondering if Martha's Vineyard is so blasé about crime.

Well, it is much harder to get stolen cars off the island. Easy to check when loading the ferries.

And easier to catch criminals, too, as they have to go by ferry or plane. OK, maybe they can take a small boat, but still, there are few ways to get off The Vinyahd.

Excellent point. But notice how these elite have gated communities and islands. How dare they have to live with the hoi polloi.

Yes, these people want to be like feudal lords in their castles while the serfs suffer.

Apparently there is a clause (740) in the Home Rule Act that allows The President to Federalize the D.C. Police for 30 days.
