Deputy Mayor In Washington Has Car Stolen While In The Middle Of City Council Meeting
Deputy Mayor In Washington Has Car Stolen While In The Middle Of City Council Meeting How bad has crime gotten in the U.S.?Here's one for you. In Auburn, Washington, last week a group of kids stole the city’s deputy mayor's car while she was in the middle of a City Council Meeting, where they were voting her into a new role. On Tuesday, the City Council elected Cheryl Rakes as deputy mayor. Meanwhile, police reported four kids stealing her Kia Soul outside city hall, according to Fox 13 Seattle."She went into the meeting at 5:30 p.m. Monday and came out an hour later and the car was gone," 770 KTTH reported. “I went out to my car about 6:30 to grab a couple of things and noticed my car was gone,” Rakes said on 770 this week. “No, I don’t feel like I was targeted. I think it was because it was the Kia.”The suspects fled, abandoning the car at Madison at River’s Edge Apartments, a site of a 2022 double shooting. The vehicle’s ignition was damaged, and items were stolen, police said.Rakes commented: "I’m incredibly grateful to the Auburn Police Department and its officers for their work in recovering the vehicle quickly and safely."The Fox report says that investigators used Flock license-reading cameras to track the stolen car from Kent back to Auburn. Police have no suspect images and believe four children were involved, but no arrests have been made.Just another day in Joe Biden's America... Tyler DurdenWed, 12/18/2024 - 20:25

Trump lashes out at 'nasty trap' laid by Democrats in lengthy screed
President-elect Donald Trump took to his Truth Social platform on Wednesday to complain about the state of the omnibus spending deal — and demand that no deal pass without raising the debt ceiling for next year.The debt ceiling, which can force the United States to default on payment obligations it already made, was extended to 2025 after a month of furious negotiation last year by then-House Speaker Kevin McCarthy (R-CA), who tried to squeeze draconian cuts to social spending out of the deal, and the Biden administration. At the time, some Republicans were opposed to raising the debt ceiling at all.Now on the hook if the nation defaults and blows up the world economy, Trump is complaining that the debt ceiling was timed by Democrats to be a "trap" against him.ALSO READ: It’s time to decimate the Republicans’ standing with the public — and the press"Sounds like the ridiculous and extraordinarily expensive Continuing Resolution, PLUS, is dying fast, but can anyone imagine passing it without either terminating, or extending, the Debt Ceiling guillotine coming up in June?" asked Trump."Unless the Democrats terminate or substantially extend Debt Ceiling now, I will fight ‘till the end," he continued. "This is a nasty TRAP set in place by the Radical Left Democrats! They are looking to embarrass us in June when it comes up for a Vote. The people that extended it, from September 28th to June 1st, should be ashamed of themselves. It was political malpractice!"Trump added: "Also, the Communist Global Engagement Center, a project of Crooked Hillary Clinton, should not in any way, shape, or form be extended and, the shielding of the very corrupt J6 Unselect Committee of Political Losers and Thugs would be suicidal for any Republican approving it. Likewise, this is not a good time for Congress to be asking for pay increases. Hopefully, you’ll be entitled to such an increase in the near future when we, 'MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!'"All of this comes as one of Trump's closest allies and strategist, tech billionaire Elon Musk, blew up GOP support for the resolution and threatened primary challenges against any Republican who votes for it — a development that upended the whole process.
