Mr. Bragg, I hope you're watching. I hope you're watching today, sir. You're a disgrace. You're a danger to this country.

You want to defund NYPD a billion dollars in 2020, and you wonder why we are in the State of Emergency we are in.

I must say, please, let's turn our attention to the good things we can do in Congress.

These are the completely foreseeable and obvious effects of the soft-on-crime policies that are advanced by Soros-funded DAs.

According to the NYPD data, New York City saw a 23-percent surge in major crimes in one year since Alvin Bragg took over.

It's very sad when people are afraid to come out of their house at night in Upper Manhattan or Lower Manhattan.

The objective fact is that Manhattan has instituted pro-crime, anti-victim policies that have resulted in an increase in violent crime.

It's sad, because many of the people in the Borough of Manhattan, the ones that vote for DA Bragg, they live here.

Because of the defunding of the police, that unit was disbanded.

I strongly believe it was because of the memos that were put out by the District Attorney's Office that they were not going to enforce assaults on police officers.

We're going to protect the benefits that everyone is legally entitled to, the beneficiaries who have a legal right to that, it will be preserved.
