This is what totalitarianism looks like

Once again the Ds doing exactly what they accuse Trump/GOP of doing.

If any of these guys get punished it will not go over well politically at all. This AD has only herself to blame. You wanna make a name for yourself politically? Fine - but understand that not everyone thinks like the folks at the fashionable NYC liberal parties.

Their punishment will be 2 straight weeks of DEI training and retraining...Pretty sure the firefighters supported Trump in 2020 and maybe the Police as well.....sure they are all in now with the Cluster F going on up there. National Guard on the Subways Hello Sanctuary Cities....

Again. Stop the public booing. It’s trashy.

You should not be booing the POTUSA.

Vote against him if you choose, but booing during a speech or heckling is super trashy.
I Guess Mike Johnson ripping up Bidens speech in disgust afterwards would have been acceptable to you ...?

Y’all can park the rage, at least on this issue.

It’s against FDNY policy to make overt political statements while on duty. The entire issue is that they were on duty at the time they booed James and then started chanting Trump’s name.

It’s entirely reasonable that members of the civil service are not allowed to make political statements while on duty. The message from FDNY was “Go protest on your own time”.

I suspected this was the case, and it took two minutes and one google search to confirm it.

I wish people would understand how often they get played in this way. It happens on both sides and it destroys true discourse and the ability to compromise that we need to have an effective government.

Don’t think anyone would debate that. But there are things you pursue and things you don’t. Read the room and understand that letting things lie is the right thing to do. Both from a common sense standpoint and politically.

Bottom line to the DA - play stupid games. Win stupid prizes. She made her bed and the flip side of being adored at fashionable liberal parties is that regular folks like NY firefighters are gonna hate you.

They were forced to attend an event highlighting a gaslighting DA who just prosecuted a rigged case that will be overturned.

There used to be a time when Americans could voice their displeasure at corrupt pols.

The evidence is also mounting that J6 hearing witnesses lied under oath. There is a reason blue collar workers are flocking to Trump. They feel he listens to them and allows them to speak.

The time when people can voice their displeasure at corrupt polls is when they are not on the clock, particularly when they are getting paid by a public that encompasses a wide range of political beliefs.

FDNY has a code of conduct regarding political expression while on duty. Those people were all on duty and clearly violated the code of conduct. The code of conduct is not voided by your or anyone else's opinions on this particular scenario. This isn't complicated.

Whether blue collar people are flocking to Trump or not is an open question, but has nothing to do with this situation.

The DA drew first blood by being overtly divisive and political. Code of conduct or not, don't be surprised when you experience the end result of taking what in theory should be an unbiased apolitical role and turning it into exactly that on steroids.
