Of course they're being more emboldened.  America has become the land of milk and honey for every crook, rapist, murderer, and thief in the world.  Anyone who lives in a sanctuary city or state had better keep alert.  A criminal is waiting to meet you, your money, and your property.

"The swamp" can be "neutralized" without having to actually "drain" it.

I have the way. The plan.

I'm the one Mr. Trump should call...
(completely serious about this)

We’re all the one Trump should call, fish!

In order to drain the swamp a conservative AG needs to be appointed and from there, the process of draining the swamp may have a chance.

The only one that I believe that has that capability, knowledge and integrity to do so would be Ted Cruz. 

Unfortunately, Trump didn't utilize Cruz's capabilities and I don't see Trump utilizing him in that capacity should he somehow win re-election.

Like Trump, Cruz is all talk no action.

 Teen pleads guilty in rock-throwing spree that killed 20-year-old driver
19h •


One of three Colorado teenagers charged in connection with a rock-throwing spree that killed a 20-year-old driver last year has pleaded guilty as part of a plea deal, officials said Friday.

Seven vehicles were hit by large landscaping rocks on the night of April 19, 2023. Three people were injured and one -- Alexa Bartell, the final victim -- was killed, prosecutors said.

Three then-18-year-old seniors were charged with 13 counts -- including first-degree murder with extreme indifference -- in connection with the incident.
 
One of the teens -- Zachary Kwak, now 19 -- pleaded guilty Friday to three new charges in connection with the rock-throwing attack, according to the Colorado First Judicial District Attorney’s Office, which is prosecuting the case.

 Disgraced ex-Trump lawyer Michael Cohen shopping his own reality show ‘The Fixer’: video

Michael Cohen will “fix your problems,” using the skills he learned working for “a notoriously bad man,” according to a promo sizzle reel for “The Fixer,” a reality-TV show concept he’s been shopping to studios.

In the unintentionally hilarious promo video, which The Post obtained exclusively, Cohen stalks the streets of Manhattan in a moody ripoff of his old boss’s mega-hit “The Apprentice.”

Clad in darks suits, the disgraced lawyer zips along Park Avenue on the Upper East Side during much of the narration, which is spliced between stock footage of cable-news reports on his scandals.

At one point, Cohen appears seated behind a desk promising to use his darks arts for “the little guy.”

“The Fixer” — a reference to Cohens’ time working as Trump’s no-holds-barred attorney —  would involve Cohen being placed into problematic business scenarios in need of “fixing,” insiders previously told The Post.

“I fixed [Trump’s] problems both professional and personal, gaining power, wealth and notoriety for myself in the process. And I paid the price for it,” Cohen begins in the three-minute spot as dramatic music plays in the background.

In 2018 Cohen was sentenced to three years in prison after pleading guilty to tax evasion and violating campaign-finance laws.
