I got the alert, then a call from my husband asking where Gotham City, MO was. lol the googleing was real

Jack L

I hope they don`t plan on sending out a lot of these phone alerts. The weather alerts they put on TV constantly warning us that it`s raining in Joplin are annoying enough//

Kevin Wilkins

Yes my wife and I did get it and it was hilarious

Lisa Gore

Funny how IlTrumpo tweeted I’m Batman, just having some fun, 2 hours prior to the Batman-related Alert...ijs.

HelenHighwater

I was waiting for Batman to come and save the day.

Max

In his eighteen wheeler?

Judy Martin

We both got the 'emergency' alert and the noise scared us half to death. Then we got the terrible noise again when they said they were cancelling it.

Max

From Gotham City, Missouri. It does not exist. More loss of faith, in our government agencies.

Jack L

Gotham City is the fictional city that Batman worked out of. Must have been a joke

Max

Batman works out of Washington DC now, when he's not driving an eighteen wheeler, or saving Private Brian

Liberal female mayors and female police chiefs around the country are destroying cities.

Germaine pate

Because thats the only thing that they understand

Because the mayors have been inadequate to get crime under control in their cities.

The Mayor and Chief of Police are quite capable of handling the LOW crime rate in D.C.

Zaos Gonzolez

Yes. DC is not a state.

Jane Porter

We do not have a king, but we might have a Hitler

Zaos Gonzolez

Lol.

Dump Trump

Other than the GOP, crime in DC has already gone down.

Zaos Gonzolez

Mhmm. Crime is actually zero everywhere. I can show you the statistics I made.

Roberthurd1

Once again the president is fabricating an emergency to expand his power when all evidence point to the contrary. D.C. is at its lowest crime rate in 30 years there is no emergency that warrants the mobilization of the national guard.

Zaos Gonzolez

Correct. Abolish government.

Jeffrey S

It's just one more step toward martial law and autocracy. Elections and democracy may be a thing of the past here in America.

Zaos Gonzolez

The federal reserve is your problem.

Nicole

Another distraction from the Epstein files. Release the files. DC crime rate at a 30 year low. What happened on Jan6 when tRump said he didn’t have the authority to call in the National Guard and blamed the Dems? No peace for tRump until he releases the files.

Zaos Gonzolez

A B. Hussein O. appointed judge blocked the release of the grand jury files.

Jeannine Hoeft

This is an escalation of implementing Project 2025... start taking over the blue cities and turn them into police states.

Zaos Gonzolez

Too bad. Democracy voted for it.

Terri Ryan

DC doesn't need or want intervention. We are not Russia, China, or North Korea. We don't want a heartless dictator or king. Our nation should truly be the land of opportunity.

Zaos Gonzolez

Paying taxes is opportunity.

Linda Jo

He is criminalizing homelessness, which should not be a crime. This is the move of an authoritarian wannabe dictator. American military are not and should not be a police force. This is a half-step from groups like the Gestapo and brown shirts.
