Reporter sounds like a done deal. The vote was supposed to be now, it got pushed back to 8 00. Former commissioner ray kelly says the city is surrendering to violent crime. They are against any budget cut. These people have been here for a week around the clock are wanting him to cut a billion dollars. Sounds like the mayor is going to do that. Beyond the protesters, beyond the building, on chambers street that is some of the graffiti been painted out here by demonstrators. They made one arrest connected to the graffiti connected to that building. The other thing that happened, david, demonstrators clashing with Police Officers who came out here to try to clear the plaza. They were removing barricades. People were hanging on to barricades there was a lot of pushing and shoving. At some point, police, some of them had to use batons to separate themselves from demonstrators. Officers on scene made three arrests including resisting, disorderly conduct, harrassment and criminal tampering for that graffiti spraypainted on the courthouse as we mentioned across the street. There was other graffiti parented as well overnight on monday, sunday into monday, david. That was at Washington Square park where two people, dressed in white and black, took water balloons, filled with red paint and threw them on the two statues of George Washington that flanked very famous arches in Washington Square park. They put red paint auld over the statues of George Washington that are 19th century as i understand, early 20th century statues. One of washington as president and the other of washington as a general. And then the two perpetrators, two suspects fed on city bikes, the bikes you can rent here in new york city. The back to the issue at hand, david. A billion dollars cut from the citys 88 billion budget. Nypd 6 billion budget will be slashed to 5 billion. What we understand School Safety officers are shipped from the nypd to control of the education department. The recent, im sorry the upcoming recruit class will be canceled, the one supposed to take place in july. No more recruits in july. Overtime cut by some 300 million for the next year. Other funds will be moved to youth and Community Programs and some jobs that the nypd does now, Homeless Outreach will be handled by other agencies. So big changes ahead. And again, a lot of Police Unions and former commissioners are saying that this is the worst time it do that because crime has actually spiked in some presents pretty dramatically and certainly over the last couple weeks. Weve seen a dramatic increase in shootings across the the city as the nypd strains to handle did the extra load, david. David strange time to cut the Police Budget. Rick, thank you very much. Appreciate it. Usually folks when crime goes up communities spend more on policing but these days in a backwards way of doing things recently new york and a lot of cities all over the country are suffering from rising crime and theyre planning to severely cut, in some cases actually eliminate money for the police. As we just heard in the case of new york, where shooting incidents are up a staggering 341 versus the same period last year. Far left mayor and City Council Planning to vote against the polls to gut the Police Budget by about 20 . So what are the results going to be in these experiment in backwards logic . Lefts ask the host of david webb show, fox news contributor, my buddy, david webb. Great to see you, sorry it is under these circumstances. You know what is coming. As crime gets worse, one reason crime is getting worse i think because the police have had so little backing from this administration, from our city council and now they will cut 20 of it the budget. So whats going to happen . Whats going to happen, sadly, david, were going back to some of the bad ol days of new york. Were already seeing that, when you look at 300 and 400 percent plus increase in incidents and shootings when you look the numbers to go. It will be interesting see the reports. The hot days of summer is coming. What happens . Crime goes up. Robberies go up. This is a mayor who disbanded the anticrime unit. You heard lack of recruitment, preplacing retirement of officers. Shifting of other positions in other departments. Who loses, not the people on upper east side, de blasio gracie mansion, but the people live in the streets of new york, dealing with the street level crime, marcy projects, bronx, areas of brooklyn around prospect park. This is happening all over the country when you get mayors like bill de blasio who is essentially someone a tin pot local dictator who thinks that policing should be handled in a fashion that he believes will, will include less policing and more social services. David by the way you know who gains by that in the social services, switching money from the police . Because theyre not just eliminating billion dollars from the budget. Theyre moving it to social services and a lot of that money, the mayor himself admitted today will be going to the mayors own wife who is already put new yorkers in a hole of about a billion dollars with her thrive nyc campaign. That was funded about two years ago. Despite various efforts by the media and by independent auditors, theyre missing hundreds of millions of dollars from that program. So waste ad billion dollars on a program that his wife headed up. Now she is heading up another program called the Racial Inclusion and equity task force. Apparently some of this money from police is going to be going to that. So there is a scandal in here. There is more than a scandal. There needs to be an investigation. What are they doing over in the Eastern District of new york . You have a case here of taxpayer money gone by the hundreds of millions, a mayor, his wife, you have people ho will not comment for fear of retribution when asked by reporters. Officials will not comment to reporters or otherwise. Why are they not looking into this . Where is the Justice System . Frankly the governor of new york, governor cuomo, who has a responsibility to all the citizens of new york as their governor should be looking into new york citys operation. He is not immune from his responsiblity. And albany should be calling for more investigation into the waste of taxpayer money and possible illegalities. David by the way, new yorkers themselves are not in favor of this. This is, there is a very undemocrattic thing happening. It is not just happening in new york city with the city council. It is happening in places like minneapolis which also has a city council that voted unanimously to defund, completely defund the police. You have it happening in places like san francisco, all over the country. Chicago, where the city council is voting against the interests of the majority of the people. The majority of new yorks polled do not want, not only do they not want defunding of the police, they dont want to have any elimination of any funding for the police and heres why. Show a video clip of a woman the other day, right here, she is 65yearold woman who in broad daylight was assaulted by this guy. Sneaked up behind her, put her in a chokehold. Weve been hearing a lot about chokeholds. Here is one by a criminal, put a chokehold on a 65yearold woman grabbed her bag, walked casually away. Most new yorkers dont want any reduction in police force funding. She doesnt have a lobbiest in her favor. She doesnt live in the rich new york city neighborhoods. If she did, bill de blasio would be concerned. If she was a major donor. Democrats would be concerned. Democrat party in new york, have failed the citizens. The citizens ever new york need to wake up to put that failure aside by votes them out of office. I know it is not the immediate solution but it is the beginning of chinks in the policies of new york. The city council, former members, john liu, Christine Quinn and others who put this position in new york, they should be called into account even if theyre gone out of office. He is now in the state senate. David it is really extraordinary that here in our democracy, were about to exercise our rights as citizens to vote in and out people all over the country, not only on a national level, not only for mayors, but for Little Things, socalled Little Things like the city council. Most people, indeed most new yorkers, probably have no clue as to what the city council does. Now theyre realizing that what a city council does is vital to the way that you live, perhaps more so than even the president. David, driving around new york city, empty streets, boarded up windows, boarded up buildings, these decisions were not made in washington that enabled that type of environment, to let rioters run loose and looting soho and other areas in the east village, all over new york, up and down fifth avenue and madison avenue. This was allowed by your city leaders, those councils, youre right, they matter more than ever. They also make the budgetary decisions. New york city has lost over 400,000 renters. Over a Million People have lost jobs. New york is losing its tax base, losing its citizens and if a lot of them dont return, you have the economic blight and growing poverty among certain elements of the community to the breakdown of law and order and youre going to see new york in the battle that is the where Rudy Giuliani steps on to the scene, stepped in, went from prosecutor to mayor and cleaned it up. We need that again and sadly it is going to be aing lag indicator of when we get to that point. David the stupidity of it all. The fact weve been there before. We know what is going to happen. Weve seen this movie. We know how it ends, and yet were repeating it once again. It is such a tragedy. It is really a tragedy because lives are at stake. We went from 2200 murders in the worst moments of the crime wave back in the late 80s, early 90s, to less than 300. That is going to change. Lives will be lost. David, great to see you. Thank you very much for your words. Appreciate it. Hope to see you again soon, david webb. Coming up questions swirling over just what u. S.

David the fallout escalating over that New York Times report that claimed that russia offered bounties to kill american soldiers continues but while the white house denies the president knew about the intel report prior to publication, questions still remain over how the Intel Community handled raw data over the alleged scheme. The white house briefed some key republican lawmakers on this yesterday and one of those lawmakers joins us. Andy biggs is an arizona congressman and house chair. Thank you, congressman. Before we get to that meeting, joe biden came out in his First Press Conference in about 100 days, close to it, anyway, he said it is dereliction of the president s duties whether or not he knew about the intel report or not. If he knew about it did nothing, that is dereliction. If he didnt know about it, it is dereliction because he didnt know about it. What do you say . I say that the is most convoluted rationale i ever heard. Look the president was not, was not briefed on this, neither was the Vice President , neither was the chief of staff and neither was the dni. The reason was a career intelligence agent looked at it, that we have got some conflicting information here. We want to check the veracity of it. We want to make sure it is good intel. Why is that . This is because it is such a serious allegation, if it is real well have to take some action and so you dont want to provide dubious or discredited information that, information that turns out later to be discredited because then you would have acted on it to create an international incident. For joe biden to say that is reckless and irresponsible because, the New York Times piece coming out is really caused us harm and he doesnt help matters when he makes those kind of allegations. David let me quote the cia director, gina haspel who spoke to the point what the leak might have done. She said, preliminary force Protection Information is shared throughout the National Security community and with u. S. Allies as part of our ongoing efforts to insure the safety of Coalition Forces overseas. Leaks compromise and disrupt the critical interagency work to collect, assess, and ascribe culpability. She is saying our National Security was harmed as a result of this leak. How do you plan to figure out who leaked it . Well i have requested and i think that theyre going to have some, the department of justice and others investigate this because a leak is a serious thing here. Because what happens is, if you have sources giving you information, good or bad, or youre working through intelligence sources, and a leak comes out, guess what, those sources roll up, theyre not available anymore. You keep our folks in harms way. You cant even assess the actual threat. That is the shame on the leaker. Shame on the New York Times for publishing it. Shame on joe biden making those allegations. It is real stuff. David congressman, very quickly to switch topics to the covid relief bill, another covid relief bill people are talking about, particularly nancy pelosi, are we going to pay people extra minimum wage that rises to more than the average wage . I mean you look at all the folks out on the street, whether theyre protesting or whatever. You figure out, well theyre there because theyre getting paid to be there . Yeah. Nancy pelosi, if she has her way, she said that she wants to extend it, increase the pay through next spring. In reality, it may go away november 4th. The day after the next election. David i think that is the day that is more important for her, after that, you know, she may be willing to compromise. Congressman, great to see you. Thank you very much for coming in today. Appreciate it. Thanks, david. David a special programing note. Be sure to catch blake burmans interview with donald trump, the president of the United States, tomorrow at 3 00 p. M.
