Speaker 1: So after city commissioners voted to slash almost sixteen million
Speaker 1: dollars from the Portland police budget, hundreds of protesters showed
Speaker 1: up at Mayor Ted Wheeler's house. The protesters shouted black
Speaker 1: lives matter and hands up, don't shoot. They weren't mad
Speaker 1: that the budget had been cut. They were in a
Speaker 1: total rage because the sixteen million dollar cut was so small.
Speaker 1: They wanted a fifty million dollar cut from the police budget,
Speaker 1: and one of the city commissioners agrees with him. She
Speaker 1: voted against the sixteen million dollar cut because in her view,
Speaker 1: it wasn't deep enough. Meanwhile, in nearby Washington State, protesters
Speaker 1: showed up at the home of Cheryl Selby. She's the
Speaker 1: mayor of Olympia, and they vandalized her home. The mayor
Speaker 1: had declined to issue a curfew when the protests started
Speaker 1: in her area. She went out of her way to
Speaker 1: express solidarity with these protester human debris types. But now
Speaker 1: she is singing a different tune. She says the black
Speaker 1: lives matters protesters are spray painted her home are like
Speaker 1: domestic terrorists. She says that she's still trying to process
Speaker 1: what happened to her home. She complains it just isn't fair.
Speaker 1: I reached out well, Ms Mayor. Even though the security
Speaker 1: and condition of your home matters to you, it doesn't
Speaker 1: matter to them. All homes, like all lives, don't matter
Speaker 1: to the Left, certainly yours done't Life really is unfair sometimes,
Speaker 1: especially in your case, isn't it? What are you gonna do?
