The murder rate is on track to be the lowest in U.S. history due to President Bidenβs executive actions & Bipartisan Safer Communities Act (signed into law on 2022 after Uvalde & Buffalo) that included community violence intervention programs. The Trump administration had nothing to do with it!

The last thing on earth that Trump ever wanted was to βcut waste, fraud, & abuse.β

Ollie would somehow find a way to accidentally lose the election for Mamdani while trying to help, then call Hal a cuck when Hal suggests that maybe going on a drunken rant in a viral video about how Zohran was going to abolish the police and put those piggies against the wall was a bad idea.
