Political Quotes

“There is a crisis of crime on our city streets. Violent crime is up double digits in Seattle, Portland, Austin, Oakland, and major cities across our great country. The increase in violent crime is the predictable result of liberal cities defunding and undermining their law enforcement, like in Austin, Texas, where the far-left city council cut $150 million from their police budget. What did we see weeks later? A doubling in the number of murders. Just this week, the police chief of Oakland, California, begged publicly for the city council not to cut the police department budget because it would result in more crime. When you cut law enforcement budgets, you reduce the number of law enforcement officers. When you reduce the number of law enforcement officers, more criminals will be on the streets. This is not rocket science. Stop attacking, undermining, and defunding law enforcement, and the crisis of crime will stop being a crisis. ____________________”
