When the Army needs a new general they don't interview outside the Army. Great choice city council.

That made zero sense, the Army is worldwide they bring someone in from another command. So they get fresh ideas, break complacency and to energize the command. Things must have changed a lot since you was in. I spent 22 years in the Army and never seen it

we have a huge problem with crime and shootings in columbia. i think the new police chief is part of the problem and does not bring any new ideas or expertise to the dept.

When racially disparate stops continue to go up, it's time to shake up leadership as doing more of the same just guarantees more racist practices.

Trump and his goons in every state in every department are running it into the ground acting like it's the best thing ever and it's not. People are suffering now more then his first term or even during Biden term

> "Trump and his goons" Goons? It's 2025. Trump is a lot of things, but comparing he and his team continued success to a childish name, you need better sources of your insults. For example, stop using The Rolling Stone as a primary news source.

Then, you prefer the 9% inflation for 4 straight years, instead of 2.9%. Where did you get your economics degree?

We're too close to 2026 and it'll take a long time to reverse.

That was during a period of worldwide inflation ... and we were actually doing better than most other advanced countries. Inflation is higher now than when Biden left office.

Compare November 2025 to November 2026 ... roughly same and 2026 figure was held down by the government shutdown. Let's check back at this time next year and you try to explain away the recession.

Inflation is less than 1/3rd of when Biden was in office. Fix your calculator.

Biden tactics were destroying the world's economies.

The U.S. dollar dominates the world economy due to its role as the primary reserve currency, backed by the massive U.S. economy, unmatched financial market liquidity, and historical inertia since the 1944 Bretton Woods system. It facilitates 88% of global exchange transactions, 54% of trade
