0:00:00.160 --> 0:00:03.520
<v Speaker 1>The rising crime wave in New York City, talk about

0:00:03.520 --> 0:00:06.640
<v Speaker 1>it all the time, shootings up two over last year,

0:00:06.960 --> 0:00:10.799
<v Speaker 1>all sorts of violence and mayhem being unleashed. Now the mayor,

0:00:11.119 --> 0:00:14.160
<v Speaker 1>the idiot, Bill de Blasio, says people's pent up frustration

0:00:14.200 --> 0:00:16.880
<v Speaker 1>of being cooped up inside because of the virus. He

0:00:16.960 --> 0:00:20.400
<v Speaker 1>says that's the reason for skyrocketing crime. He says, the

0:00:20.440 --> 0:00:23.360
<v Speaker 1>one billion dollar cut in the police budget, that's got

0:00:23.360 --> 0:00:27.040
<v Speaker 1>nothing to do with it. Dismantling the Anti Crime Task Force,

0:00:27.120 --> 0:00:29.800
<v Speaker 1>the plane closed unit, that's got nothing to do with

0:00:29.800 --> 0:00:33.080
<v Speaker 1>it either, And of course, neither does his release of

0:00:33.120 --> 0:00:37.360
<v Speaker 1>over two thousand hardened criminals and rikers Island. And now

0:00:37.400 --> 0:00:43.640
<v Speaker 1>another genius, New York Congresswoman Alexandria has put her two

0:00:43.680 --> 0:00:47.360
<v Speaker 1>cents in. She agrees the massive police budget cuts are

0:00:47.400 --> 0:00:50.479
<v Speaker 1>not related to the crime wave because she wants the

0:00:50.520 --> 0:00:53.000
<v Speaker 1>police to fund it. She says, rising crimes caused by

0:00:53.040 --> 0:00:56.880
<v Speaker 1>people who are scared to pay their rent. They go out,

0:00:56.920 --> 0:01:00.840
<v Speaker 1>they shoplift a loaf of bread to feed their hungry kids. Well,

0:01:00.840 --> 0:01:05.080
<v Speaker 1>how does that account for the increase in shootings. Meanwhile,

0:01:05.120 --> 0:01:08.160
<v Speaker 1>on the other coast, California Democrats are about to release

0:01:08.680 --> 0:01:12.840
<v Speaker 1>eight thousand criminals from jails in prisons to stop the

0:01:12.920 --> 0:01:18.160
<v Speaker 1>virus from spreading. Supposedly liberal Democrats, they defund the police

0:01:18.440 --> 0:01:22.080
<v Speaker 1>at the same time they release criminals from jail. I mean,

0:01:22.200 --> 0:01:24.280
<v Speaker 1>what could possibly go wrong.
