a prosecutor that refuses to, for instance, prosecute certain low-level crimes will tend to get voted out of office because it pisses off the constituents.

unless it's US Attorney's Office for the District of Columbia, then Republicans can just say no to whatever we vote for.

I don't really think that D.C. should be a state, but I think that it should have more autonomy for the administration of the city than it has.

Puerto Rico needs it more than we do but Republicans annually propose a removal of our voting rights.

They genuinely want to see DC burn.
