From Washington, DC to #Minneapolis, it is unacceptable to have shootings (anywhere including) in the heart of major cities.

We need to give the police the tools they need to fight crime.

Politicians like Ilhan Omar who call to defund the police are playing a deadly game.
The DC Police Chief would make a much better DC Mayor than @MurielBowser.

Bowser thinks cleaning up the streets mean painting it yellow with #BLM.
Robert Contee, the DC police chief has a very promising political future. These off the cuff remarks are what people need to hear.
These videos from today should go viral on social media.
DC Police Chief Robert Contee says calls to defund the police are not helping and sidesteps the political land mines.
It’s hard to watch idiots reinvent the wheel when it comes to crime.

These mayors call to defund police and crime rises - it’s obvious.

They have the same talking points: gun control - even if the district has tougher gun laws than most.

They have no answers. Vote them out.

Rep Eric Swalwell is closing in on a hat-trick when it comes to being compromised by foreign interests. He was already sleeping with a spy from #China. Now he's meeting with shady Qatari foundations. I discussed with @Nefertari_25 on @OANN "Tipping Point."
What do Eric Swalwell and #Minnesota CD-5 Rep Ilhan Omar have in common? Their flirtation with foreign interests pose a national security threat and they serve on the House intel and foreign affairs committees, respectively. I discussed it with @Nefertari_25 on @OANN
Watch the whole segment on @OANN with @Nefertari_25 as we discuss Eric Swalwell's sucking up to foreign interests here:

At this point, the Biden administration's appeasing of state-sponsors of terrorism is beyond embarrassing. #Iran
The craven lunacy here is truly awe-inspiring.
Terrorists are emboldened when Democrats run the White House because they are weak on national security and don’t understand the concept of leverage.

A lesson here for Americans on politicizing intel.

Dems spent 4 years lying about #RussiaGate. They said Trump was their intel asset, the Hunter scandal was #Russia disinfo, and turned an international villain into a folk hero for too many on the right.
washingtonpost.com/world/europe/p…
In the zero-sum politics of lies promoted by corporate media, defending Trump from hourly absurdities soon soon turned to an embrace of the various boogieman.

For example, Republicans adopted "Deplorable" after Hillary's rant.
There used to be agreement on the obvious: Russia and the US have very different interests and work at cross-purposes. And Dems were always weaker on this.

Despite the stupid Dem/Media rhetoric, Trump was far tougher on #Russia than Obama and Biden is a wet napkin by comparison.

Of course #Israel didn't tell the US in advance about its attack on the Natanz nuclear facility in #Iran.

Here's a quick lesson for those who haven't paid attention. 1/x
6/1/12: @NYTimes exposed #Israel's involvement in deploying the Stuxnet virus in the Natanz facility. The story directly quoted one of Obama’s daily briefers who was in the room with the president and told him: 2/x
“We think there was a modification done by the Israelis...Obama, according to officials in the room, asked a series of questions... The answers came back in hedged terms. Biden fumed, ‘It’s got to be the Israelis,’ he said. ‘They went too far." nytimes.com/2012/06/01/wor… 3/x

Even before clicking on the NYTimes take, I’m curious how they’ll spin #Israel as the devil.
So the NYTimes version of the implications of the Israeli operation on #Iran’s nuclear facility is what you’d imagine: A bad take punctuated with worse analysis. Here’s a few examples... nytimes.com/2021/04/11/wor…
Uncertainty? This is an #Israeli gift of even more leverage the US can use with #Iran in negotiations. Iranian threats are now less powerful. We don’t need to rush into a bad deal as we currently are. Team #Biden however is allergic to leverage. There’s a reason for that:

I saw @DavidTafuri’s sober analysis of the negotiations w #Iran on @FoxNews. Where Netanyahu is right about a deal threatening #Israel is that at this point any deal that allows the regime to enrich uranium is too great a danger. 1/x
We’ve already seen how glacially slow the IAEA is to react to new evidence and how incomplete their picture is about known nuclear sites. We know there are multiple ways the regime has cheated, years before Trump left the deal. Of course Iran will cheat again. 2/x
We’ve already seen Europe decide that almost none of that matters. What they care about is inking trade deals w the regime. #Israel can’t count on them to act when they should. 3/x
