Police departments. While that happens there has been a flury of tragic gun violence. For weeks protesters have been gathering in louisvilles Jefferson Square park protesting the policeinvolved death of breanna taylor. She was a Health Care Worker and she was killed however when police serve ad warrant in a drug arrest. However, gunfire erupted in the protest camp. [gunfire] h. Reporter activists supporting the protests were shot and killed. Tyler griff. Man accused of gunman, steven lopez is hospitalized but in police custody. The city of chicago no stranger to gun violence last weekend claimed lives of young people. 20monthold baby was shot in the chest strapped to a gun sheet. She never had a chance. Chicagos new Police Superintendent called the shooters evil bastards and pressed the public to end the code of silence and start telling police who the gunmen are. Silence emboldens, empowers those who continue to terrorize our neighborhoods. Now is the time to stand up to say enough is enough. For gods sake, for the sake of chicagos children, come forward reporter the upcoming 4th of july Holiday Weekend historically proven to be severe for gun violence in chicago. David . David mike tobin in chicago. Good luck on that, mike, thank you very much. Staying on the spike in crime across the u. S. Early this morning another shooting in seattles socalled chop zone has left one victim dead and another critically injured. The fourth shooting in or near the autonomous zone. We have congressman from new york, congressman lee zeldin. Good to see you. You wrote a piece in foxnews. Com you say defunding police, great for killers, lousy for victims. Seattle is proof of that. It is sort of a petri dish for the suggestion, the experiment of trying life without police and its not working. How do we shut it down . You need the seattle mayor to empower the seattle Law Enforcement. If theyre not going to do it, the governor needs to step in and needs to take charge to reclaim this territory which is part of our country and, you need to do it not just for the basics of rule of law, of respecting rights and good order and discipline in the community, but you also have private property that has been illegally taken. You have all sorts of different laws on the books. In the state of washington that are being broken. And people need to be arrested, example needs to be set. You let it go on. It already has been proven. You can watch it from inside of chop or from the other coast. And youre seeing firsthand why abolishing defunding, disbanding isnt going to work. David congressman we know for generations it doesnt work. There was a book written mayed to read when i was in high school called, lord of the flies. It shows you what happens when people are left to their own devices without any control or authority or police and it doesnt work. We know it doesnt work. But the people, the people in charge in seattle continually refuse to admit it and right now they dont seem to have the guts to step in to the autonomous zone to change things. So what happens if they dont do it . The longer they delay it is the worse it will get when they go in . Youre starting to see the justice department, youre seeing the federal government starting to launch their own investigations. Hopefully as were going through this week across the country well start to see arrests. If youre not going to have the local mayor or governor doing the right thing, the federal government needs to step in. The average american david hold on for a second, if i can interrupt, congressman, how does the federal government step in . What does the federal government do if the mayor or governor wont do it . First off depends on which laws are being broken. You have to have a violation of a law, for example, to be able to arrest an individual and in certain cases youre not going to be able to have the federal government intervene. Another option as far as going into an area is with regards to which individuals do you send in . There is that option as it relates to the national guard. There are others who are part of the federal government, who can assist that. This is all a last case scenario. This is not option, a, b, or c. It is one needs to be strongly considered at this point with feckless leadership at the local level, with a combination of a, being incredibly naive as the house was going to play out, or b, just wanting to pander, because that is the base for their votes to win elections. David i think it is both a and b. They want to pander and theyre being incredibly naive. Looks like the people in chicago have reached the point of total frustration. We heard the Chicago Police commissioner just throwing up his hands, saying, really getting furious. He understands that black lives matter even if theyre not being killed by police but being killed by black criminals which is clearly whats happening even to the smallest children. What do you do there . This is a problem that predates the george floyd protest . You support Law Enforcement more, not less. Long term, it is be providing more opportunity for people who are stuck in one state, relying on the government in order to survive. It is about education, opportunities and choice. It is about being able to have the job and skills to make yourself competitive. People are stuck in a state of poverty, generation after generation. They need to get out of it. As far as the elected officials who are there most immediately, support Law Enforcement more, not less. That is how you best help the people in need in chicago. That is also because of lack of support why youre seeing Law Enforcement submitting your retirement packets, if you are not going to have my back, i will not allow you day in, day out to throw me to the wolves like this. David that is happening en masse in your own state where you live and city i live particularly in new york city. Weve gone from one coast to the other. Seattle, to chicago to new york and now in new york you have a weekend in which murders are up 25 to 50 over the past couple of weeks. What are we going to do . Because the mayor of new york, mayor de blasio, is Just Announced a billion dollars out of the Police Budget . Mayor de blasio has to go. I dont know if he is capable of getting this back in control while he is mayor. This started, remember, earlier this year with the implementation of cashless bail in new york. David right. Where people could rob a bank, get arrested, be released that day, smile at the sky outside, cant believe theyre free, go rob another bank. That was actually coming at the start of this year. What is ironic about all this, mayor de blasio stands in front of the crowd he is pandering too, they will be the first ones to boo him off the stage. Who are you doing this for . Make the decision to have the backs of cops, Property Owners and those who obey and respect the law and restore order to what is a great city that should be thriving right now as opposed being destroyed directly because of mayor de blasio. David congressman i lived here since the 1980s and i have to tell you a lot of new yorkers even those who voted for de blasio and voted for his reelection are fed up with him. Want change, but they dont see anybody. Let me put it to you as a republican. Why arent you republicans putting up candidates to combat somebody like Rudy Giuliani for example . There has got to be people out there. I havent seen them. I havent seen republicans put their Due Diligence to put up somebody against the democrats . We had republicans running for mayor of new york city and democrats and others actually voting for mayor de blasio. I think as you pointed out, people who live in new york citys see what a mayor de blasio term is going to look like. Now theyre more ready for change than they were in the past. What you might see that the next mayor may be republican. Understanding when Rudy Giuliani got elected with a city that had registrations like six to one, seven to one democrat. David i remember. And they voted for him. David i remember a liberal who was a friend of fox news, allen combs, who voted for Rudy Giuliani the second time. Again you have to find more credible candidates because, there is always somebody running against these guys but they, they dont win unless they really got what it takes. So far i havent seen one of those candidates. You have got to find somebody like that. Congressman, we have to leave it at that. Thanks for joining us. David politicizing the government response to the covid19 outbreak. Mark cuban now openly supporting joe biden for president says the feds left the states to fend for themselves. Were ask florida senator rick scott if he agrees and well get senator scotts take on that and also on Governor Cuomos fingerpointing at florida, despite new yorks far deadlier record in fighting the virus. [ engines revving ] its amazing to see them in the wild like th shhh. For those who were born to ride, theres progressive. Miles to the job site. The campsite. And anything else we set our sights on. Miles that take us back to the places we want to go. And to the people who count on us. So, lets roll up our sleeves. Because weve got miles to make up. Always have been. And always will be. Never letting anything get in my way. Not the doubts, distractions, or voice in my head. And certainly not arthritis. New voltaren provides powerful arthritis pain relief to help me keep moving. And it can help you too. Feel the joy of movement with voltaren. Yeah yyeah yeah hey, hey. What well decide in all cities resurging, we have to decide who to trust with our lives. How to make a decision. Nobody knows who even to ask, even truster. That is a failure of leadership. It is not just about testing, if you want to go back there, what about tracking and tracing. Having increases in tests. There is no support from the federal government which should be a unified position how to track and trace. There is no support there at all. Every city and state is left to their own devices which makes it much more difficult to track and trace because all of the data is siloed. So again this comes down to lack of leadership. David that was mark cuban this weekend, saying that President Trump and the federal government have not done enough to stop the spread of the coronavirus, calling it a lack of leadership but with 100 billion in bailouts to the states and emergency hospitals built to handle the outbreak is that really the case . Florida senator rick scott joining me to discuss. Senator, good to see you. Donald trump isnt doing much of anything to help the states. That is what we hear from mark cuban. That is what joe biden is now saying, Governor Cuomo is saying that. Also pointing his finger at you, despite having a far worse record on the coronavirus than you do. What do you say to all of them . First off, lets go to the facts. The facts that congress and the president signed bills to give, spent 2. 9 trillion, over 500 billion to state and local. We gave them 150 billion to deal with coronavirus issues. We gave them 11 billion to deal with testing. We gave them 50 billion to deal with medicaids. Medicaid costs are coming down. 30 billion to schools. Schools are down. We give them almost half of their entire annual revenues for the state. We gave another 500 billion if they want to borrow money. What a lot of people dont realize county Health Departments are generally funded locally or at the state. In florida we funded them primarily at the state level. So the federal government doesnt run these things, but has the federal government funded it . Yeah. We allocated 175 billion for health care. So you know, what this is, you have a whole bunch much people did not want to take responsibility. You need to do it if youre a mayor and governor, step up and inform your citizens of what they need to do and keep giving them information. No different than what i did when i had a hurricane. The federal government didnt come to bail me out. I didnt expect them to do everything. David right. Counties did it, cities did i it and states did. That is the idea of the republic. Each state has enormous autonomy to do it the way they think it should be done because they know more about their surroundings than people in the beltway do. That there is another thing Governor Cuomo is doing, which is unseemly what happened in the state of new york. He is pointing fingers at you and texans that they had done horrible job of reopening their economy. Everybody knew that there would be moments of fires that spread in different pockets of states that opened up. That is what we knew would happen. Its happening. Were dealing with it when it happens. Look at mortality rates like Governor Cuomos that kept a lockdown tight from the moment it happened at midmarch. New york has a mortality rate that is, those people who have contracted covid, who died as a result of it, of 7. 5 . New jersey, 7. 5 . Michigan 8. 7 . All those are lockdown states. The more open states like yours and georgia and arizona have much less mortality rates. Georgia has a a 3. 4 rate. Florida, a 2. 6. Arizona, 2. 4. Theyre pointing the finger at you when you in fact have a mortality rate that is far better than theirs . I got elected healthcare. Gov back in 2010 with cuomo. What i watched eight years as governor, before i was u. S. Senator, he never takes responsibility. He never makes tough choices. He could never balance a budget. He couldnt cut taxes. Whether youre talking about his budget or his response to coronavirus he takes no responsibility for his failures. And that is what he has done. So he is always going to try to blame it on somebody else. But, i mean the it is just shocking that a guy cannot succeed at anything wants to blame everybody else. David senator, switch quickly, has to be the last point to another issue were dealing with which is these protests in many cases become riots and the policing problems were having. Senator tim scott, another senator scott, your republican counterpart in the senate, senator from south carolina, came out with a police bill. It may have had some flaws in it. Im sure every bill does, but that is why you try to work things out. Instead some democrats have hurled racial insults at senator scott, which i have never seen such a low form of insults, as a racial insult, which senator durbin threw at him suggesting that the bill, was quote a token bill. Obvious racial remark concerning his, his particular political preference. What do you make of that where racial insults from democrats to republicans are considered fair game . Well, what durbin said is disgusting. And you know, he was wrong what he said. But look these are democrats. Whether it is Law Enforcement reform or taking care of our daca kids or balancing our budget, theyre all talk, theyre no action. They will never do anything. All theyre worried about is the election in november. Can they use this as a talking point. So there is a lot of problems we have. Ive been up here in d. C. For 18 months. I watched the democrats obstruct, do nothing, blame, do nothing. That is all they do. David i actually never seen a racial insult as bare boned as that in my professional career. I just think it was, it was absolutely disgusting. There has not been, as far as i know, a full apology for that from senator durbin. Of course not. They dont apologize. Tim scott is a caring individual that worked his tail off to come up with a bill that would do the right thing. David yeah. Hold people accountable but make sure we continued to have Law Enforcement we support which we should. David senator scott, great to see you. Thank you very much. Appreciate it. David coming up u. S.
