MacDonald: When What Rich Libs Vote for 'Finds Them'

In the year 1 BC (Before COVID), circa 2019, there was unending amusement to be found. Schadenfreude, to be more specific.

Decades of Democrat rule in Los Angeles had finally managed to spill over into the nicer neighborhoods. Angry homeless addicts pushed out of the seediest parts of a city, reaping what it sowed, into the nicer parts of "town".

The streets of once-pristine communities have been littered with dangerous needles. A clean-up crew supported by the Newmarket Business Improvement District has estimated they pick up about 1,000 needles a day across Boston.
