D.C. Mayor Muriel E. Bowser (D) on Tuesday ordered indefinite coordination between the city and federal law enforcement officials, a powerful indication of her willingness to cooperate with President Donald Trump’s effort to take over public safety in the capital city.

For the life of me, I will never understand why these people act so pathetically obsequious, when it's obvious that nothing will ever placate right wing psychos.
I was writing up a different reply when I realized that for all the talk by Democrats about "reaching across the aisle" and working on "bipartisan solutions," I don't think I've ever heard of Republicans saying anything similar about working with Democrats. I think this is probably another example of the Democrats and Republicans being functionally the same and rather than "capitulating," the Democrats are just going mask-off about it. It'd be nice if the Democrats at least made it look like they're trying to fight it though.
Rarely I do think I remember hearing Republicans call something bipartisan to legitimate it, but it's absolutely true that they aren't lead by a coalition of people who claim to support X but then make the majority of their platform "compromising" to not do X because it's important to reach across the aisle. Kamala's thing about wanting a Republican in her cabinet is something I have never heard anything close to from a Republican (they might take aboard someone who happens to be a Democrat, but they aren't doing fucking quotas for supporting political "opponents").
Wanting a Republican in the cabinet is directly pulled from The West Wing
Having one branch of government controlled by the opposition is ideal if your opponent is on the books as your opponent but giving a (admittedly significant) mayoral slot to a small s socialist who is ostensibly on your side? Execute order 66 or whatever the code was to betray the Jedi. To get the point across with movies.
It's so incredibly frustrating to see them water down everything they do in the name of bipartisan support. Especially the times they've preemptively done it before negotiations start.
But yeah totally not a symptom of the party, just need to elect more dems
I was checking to see if D.C. is (now was I assume) a sanctuary city and here's the link wikipedia uses to say it is one: https://mayor.dc.gov/release/mayor-bowser-issues-statement-reaffirming-dc-sanctuary-city
Maybe a little too on the nose.
wait, was this announced on the day that they ruled the national guard deployment was illegal and had to be turned over to Newsome?
lol.
D.C. is different TBH. It's not a state, it doesn't have state's rights constitutionally. It's a at the pleasure of congress and/or the president type of government situation so that ruling doesn't necessarily have the same implications. Originally it didn't even have things like a mayor or city council and was just administered by the federal government directly until congress passed an act giving them some local government and representation. Dems deserve (lots of) shit and there isn't much harm in just standing up to Trump and forcing him to dissolve D.C. city government and anger residents but I tend to doubt that ruling gave them any ammo in this fight.
OK what's next, a politician named Dracula?
Just gonna be hiring cartoon villains forever now, aren't we?
one of the senators from Idaho is literally named "Potato Dracula"
Nominative determinism strikes again
Um excuse you sweaty, she’ll be holding her nose as she signs off on the order to execute all homeless people. You should be grateful for having such a defiant mayor.
and I thought Mayor Pauline was a bootlicker
we're so cooked lmao 
"they will be greeted as liberators"
