ELIZABETH: JOINING US NOW,
FORMER NYPD I LIEUTENANT DARRIN
PORCHER.
LIEUTENANT, FIRST LET’S TALK
ABOUT THIS FEEL-GOOD STORY.
A SHOUT-OUT TO THIS HERO COP IN
NEW JERSEY.
HE’S HOLDING AP INFANT NEWBORN
WHO WAS THROWN FROM A SECOND
STORY BALCONY.
THE GUY WHO DID THAT NOW URN
ARREST. -- UNDER ARREST.
THIS IS SUCH A GREAT STORY ABOUT
A WONDERFUL COP.
THERE ARE SO MANY GOOD COPS
ACROSS THE COUNTRY DOING THINGS
LIKE THIS.
WHAT DO YOU SAY?
>> I’LL TELL YOU, THIS IS THE
NORMAL COURSE OF ACTION FOR
POLICE OFFICERS.
HOW MUCH, WE DON’T SEE IT.
IN THE WAKE OF THE LIBERAL
MEDIA, ALL WE SEE IS POLICE
OFFICERS DOING THINGS THAT
PEOPLE PERCEIVE AS
INAPPROPRIATE.
BUT POLICE OFFICERS ARE PUBLIC
SERVANTS, SO SAVING A BABY,
DOING RIGHT BY THE COMMUNITY IS
THE NATURAL ORDER OF POLICING.
ELIZABETH: YOU KNOW, LIEUTENANT,
THE FBI IS SET TO RELEASE
POSSIBLY ON MONDAY NEW DATA THAT
SHOWS 2020 WAS THE HIGHEST
SINGLE YEAR SPIKE IN U.S.
MURDERS SINCE 1960.
WE’RE TALKING 29%.
1960 WAS WHEN THEY BEGAN KEEPING
RECORDS.
LET’S WATCH THE MEDIA
DOWNPLAYING VIOLENT CRIME
SWEEPING THE NATION.
THEY DISMISS IT.
WATCH.
>> THE SILLY NARRATIVE ABOUT OUR
CITIES, CALLING THEM ANARCHISTS
WITH PREPOSTEROUS TO ME.
IMAGE AFTER IMAGE ON INSTAGRAM
YESTERDAY IN CENTRAL PARK AND
ALL OVER NEW YORK PEOPLE, LIKE,
WALKING THEIR DOGS.
THIS DOESN’T SEEM LIKE ANARCHY
TO ME.
>> DEMOCRATIC CITIES ARE IN
CHAOS RIGHT NOW --
>> CRIME IS RISING.
>> OH, MY GOSH, IT’S SO BAD, AND
THEY’RE DEFUNDING POLICE.
ELIZABETH: THAT SOUNDS BEYOND
OUT OF TOUCH.
IT JUST SOUNDS SO BRAZENLY IG
AND HURTFUL. -- IGNORANT AND
HURTFUL.
WHAT DO YOU SAY?
>> NUMBERS DON’T LIE.
THE FBI USES SOMETHING THAT
PROVIDES THE SEVEN MAJOR
FELONIES WHICH ARE QUANTITATIVE
STATISTICS THAT DETAIL THE CRIME
PATTERNS OR, I SHOULD SAY, THE
NUMBER OF CRIMES THROUGHOUT
THIS, THAT PARTICULAR YEAR, THAT
CALENDAR YEAR: THAT BEING SAID,
THE NUMBERS CLEARLY REFLECT A
METEORIC RISE IN VIOLENT CRIME.
THEREFORE, THERE’S NO WAY TO GET
AWAY FROM IT.
SO WHEN YOU HEAR SENTIMENTS SUCH
AS LIBERAL MEDIA WE JUST SAW,
IT’S CLEARLY FALSE.
CRIME IS GOING UP, AND I BELIEVE
THAT THE PRESIDENT IS NOT DOING
WHAT’S NECESSARY TO INVOKE A
LEVEL OF CALM ON HOW TO REDUCE
OR RETHESE CRIME NUMBERS --
RECEDE THESE CRIME NUMBERS.
BY DOING NOTHING, YOU’RE
EXACERBATING THE PROBLEM, AND
THAT’S --
ELIZABETH: THEY DIDN’T MENTION
THE DNC, THEY DIDN’T COVER IT,
THEIR CONVENTION LAST YEAR,
NOTHING IN THE INAUGURAL ADDRESS
OR ADDRESS TO THE JOINT SESSION
OF CONGRESS.
LET’S SHOW THE MURDER RATES IN
CITIES ACROSS THE COUNTRY AS WE
TALK ABOUT DEFUND THE POLICE.
AUSTIN, TEXAS, IS ONE EXAMPLE.
THEY CUT $150 MILLION, THE
AUSTIN CITY COUNCIL, OUT OF THE
POLICE BUDGET.
THAT’S ABOUT A THIRD OF THE
BUDGET, A THIRD.
NOW THERE’S NOT ENOUGH STAFFERS
TO ANSWER 911 PHONE CALLS.
SO SO IF YOU’RE IN A CAR CRASH
WITH NO INJURY OR A BURGLARY
WHERE THE ROBBER HAS ALREADY
LEFT, YOU’VE GOT TO CALL 311.
YOUR REACTION TO THAT.
>> THIS IS A CLASSIC SENTIMENT
OF THE LIBERAL LEFT.
THE MAYOR OF AUSTIN, TEXAS, IS A
DEMOCRAT, AND HE -- LIKE A LOT
OF THE OTHER DEMOCRATIC
MAYORS -- BELIEVES IN THIS
NOTION OF I DON’T WANT TO SAY
DEFUNDING POLICE, BUT RECEDING
POLICE.
AND AS A RESULT, THE PUBLIC IS
SUFFERING.
WE DON’T HAVE ENOUGH POLICE
RESOURCES.
POLICE RESOURCES ARE BEING
STRETCHED THIN, AND THE LIBERAL
DEMOCRATS DON’T UNDERSTAND THE
CARNAGE THAT SUBSEQUENTLY IS
BACKLASHING INTO THESE
COMMUNITIES.
ELIZABETH: YOU KNOW, THERE’S A
PUSHBACK IN THE CONCEPT, YOU
KNOW, WE’VE TALKED TO DEMOCRATS
WHO SAY THIS ISN’T TRUE, IT’S
NOT DEMOCRAT-RUN CITIES, IT’S
NOT DEMOCRATS’ FAULT, IT’S THE
CITIES THEMSELVES AT FAULT.
WHAT DO YOU SAY TO THAT
ARGUMENT?
>> I SAY THE NUMBERS DON’T LIE.
WHEN YOU LOOK AT THE
QUANTITATIVE STATISTICS, WHEN
YOU LOOK AT THE DEMOCRATICALLY
CONTROLLED CITIES IN THE UNITED
STATES, YOU CLEARLY SEE A
METEORIC RISE IN CRIME.
IT’S VERY DIFFERENT WHEN YOU
LOOK TO THE REPUBLICAN LED
CITIES.
THAT BEING SAID, IT’S NOT HARD
TO FIGURE THIS OUT.
IT DOESN’T TAKE A ROCKET
SCIENTIST.
ALL YOU NEED TO DO IS PUT IN
PLACE PRECISION POLICING, AND
THAT’S WHAT’S GOING TO DRIVE
DOWN THE NUMBERS.
HOWEVER, THE DEMOCRATIC MAYORS
THROUGHOUT THE COUNTRY DON’T
UNDERSTAND THAT.
ELIZABETH: NEVER MIND, YOU KNOW,
ALSO THOUSANDS OF COPS ASSAULTED
EVERY YEAR, 52 COPS SLAIN
ALREADY IN THE LINE OF DUTY.
I MEAN, COPS ARE REALLY PUTTING
THEIR LIVES ON THE LINE FOR US.
