Harris and chaos, violence, showing no signs of stopping in chicago. Some 15 people were wounded in a shooting outside of a funeral home last night. Among 23 people reportedly shot across the entire city yesterday. The latest Chicago Police data year over year show through sunday murders are up by 51 . Shootings are up by 47 . The citys mayor says this. We need to continue to lean into our faith and depend on each other. We need to find our sense of humanity, our sense of community and make sure that every single do everything we can to reach out to these young men to break the cycle of violence. Harris you are watching outnumbered im harris faulkner. Here is editor and Fox News Contributor katie pavlich, attorney and Fox News Contributor emily compagno, Fox News ContributorJessica Tarlov and joining us today ben shapiro host of the ben shapiro show podcast and also the author of the new book how to destroy america in three easy steps. Hey, everybody, it is wednesday. Lets get to you, ben. So, is this on the list of you who to destroy america in three steps just let it fall, basically to the hands of people who want to commit violence . Ben ben i mean the posturing is absolutely extraordinary. What i talk about in the book is the idea if you are going to have a nation that holds together then you have to have a nation where we share a philosophy rooted in the declaration of independence have to have a culture where we rely on each other and culture of entrepreneurship and respect each others rights. Common history recognition that American History has dark and terrible parts story of the American History is the fulfillment of the promissory note when mlk said the promises of the declaration had to be extended to all americans we have done over time creating the most prosperous, free and beautiful nation in the world. What we are watching right now where politicians stand by and watch their own cities be destroyed in the name of some sort of utopiaism the idea we are going to allow law and order to go by the wayside to building is new an element of the destruction of the country. This is insane. Im sorry if Lori Lightfoot thinks by going on tv and appealing to the better angels of the people murdering children in chicago this is going to solve the problem, she is out of her mind. Harris you know, emily, i come to you on the legal part of all of this, i want to make a fine point the president expected in his announcement today to include the facts, i dont know, maybe mayor lightfoot didnt know. These actually wont necessarily be all outside forces. He is going to repurpose some of the federal agents who are already in chicago to work on the current disaster that is unfolding in terms of the violence on the streets. Emily thats exactly right, harris. First of all, federal crimes deserve federal responses and secondly there are auto whole host of different ways that federal forces can be activated, right . What were looking at in chicago would be exactly that existing federal agencies on the ground assigned there resupplement and bolster and augment the local Law Enforcement there underneath the city of Chicago Police department. Right . We see different programs look differently. We have operating legend by the doj. Homeland security investigations, et cetera, i just have to point out that mayor lightfoot there, she has actually approved federal intervention we know she wrote that four page litter toft president. Despite your incendiary rhetoric, mr. President , i do want federal intervention. To be clear its simply in the form of more money. She thinks that simply by more spending on what she says is Community Investment and bolstering Community Service programs, reform of gun laws and the like that that will solve this problem. Final quick point, the American Civil Liberties union of illinois has called this the federal intervention an assault on the people of this country. What do you call what is happening on the streets now . Harris yeah. Jessica, as i come to you, im looking down at my notes, may 25th, 58 days ago that george floyd was tortured and murdered before our very eyes on that videotape. And we were all yoked as the a nation in that same direction. I have talked about this many times. Now we are splintered. But splintered is one thing splintered and peacefully protest something one thing. I have heard some democrats go after republicans with how can you call for thoughts and prayers . Yet, thats exactly what Lori Lightfoot is doing right now. Are there no fresh ideas about how to save that city . What do you think about her words today . Jessica im not so much concerned with her words today as a course of action as you pointed out that we need. We need a new plan. How Lori Lightfoot won victorious to win the miller in chicago there were a lot of con tinders. People thought she was going to be best to fix the crime and violence epidemic in chicago. She has so far fallen short of that its important to note by as you said reading out statistics of year over year murders and violence et cetera in chicago, this is a long held problem. This existed before george floyd was murdered by derek chosen and it will exist afterwards. So i would love to see a plan from the mayor that includes those funds that are coming from federal Law Enforcement as well as what she is going to do with the officers that are already on the ground there to help assist her and the police chief who i believe are wholeheartedly dedicated to fixing this problem but so far come up short. Im not so sure how much more that city can take, actually, of these kinds of numbers. This wasnt even a weekend, right . 15 people shot outside of a funeral home on a tuesday. Its obviously dire circumstances and federal Law Enforcement and state and local need to Work Together here. Harris well, i would say this because of the coronavirus pandemic, you do have people who dont necessarily treat the days of the week waiting for the weekend the way that they used to. It seems like a lot of these days are sometimes even hard to count. Like which day is it for some . Katie, as i come to you, i want to lean in a little bit more on what mayor lightfoot said. Because it was light in the content of strategy on how to clean up her streets and, you know, that whole thing i brought up about democrats vs. Republicans, thoughts and prayers, what the president is pushing in with now can you do both. You can have theirs not going to do away with that im going to make sure that federal agents are there and activated on the ground coming from the president and what he will do next. Katie yeah, harris, if you look at the mayors twitter stream from last night within an hour or two of her saying she wasnt going to allow President Trumps troops. Well, they are not President Trumps troops, first of all, to quote terrorize her city. Well, within hours of that tweet, you had these 15 people shot outside of this funeral home. You have violence raging in the city. This is a bigger issue than just her talking about maybe some kind of influx of cash or rehabilitation. This is a broad problem within the judicial system in chicago where judges and juries continue to let out criminals. If you look at the people that continually commit these crimes their rap sheet is a mile long. The problem is they are not being kept in jail. They are not being prosecuted properly and being let out and the criminals are running the streets in chicago. And thats why you have the chicago fraternal order of Police President issuing a letter to the white house saying we do need federal help and we need it as soon as possible. Our officers are being attacked and the people who suffer the most, harris, are the people who live in these communities who are being terrorized by the mayor for her refusal to take on the criminals who are running the streets and terrorizing them every single day and they really have no recourse. Its the reason you are seeing conceal carry permit holder permit classes and applications going through the roof. People are doing everything they can to defend themselves while the politicians sit by and allow this to happen. Revictimizeing not just people who get shot in the street but the people who have to live in fear every single day that this is ongoing in the community and the social justice side refuses to deal with it. Harris she should talk with her own police chief. I mean, he was across Television Screens all weekend and yesterday talking about how wait a minute, they actually do need some help on the ground. Its not just in chicago. In portland, federal officers have been dispersing protesters once again outside a federal courthouse and it marks there the 55th straight night of protests. So, of the 58 days since george floyd, 55 of them have been looking similar or like this. And now acting dhs chief chad wolf is promising to have agents stay in that city despite calls from local and state officials for them to leave. Watch. If you are a violent rioter looking to inflict damage, the federal property or Law Enforcement officers, you need to find another line of work. We will not retreat. We will continue to take the appropriate action to protect our facilities and our Law Enforcement officers. Harris so, ben, you know, my question is why do these leaders feel like and you see chad wolf there. Hes in there to do a job. Why do you see that there is not that same kind of urgency among some of these city leaders . I mean, it is odd, after all of these dozens of days we are talking about this, yet, the moment is urgent. Isnt it . Or is it not as democrats say they may not take up Police Reform until 2021 when they have more majority . Ben ben it really is difficult to escape the conclusion that a lot of people in the Democratic Party and the media are invested in chaos. They are rooting for chaos. One of the reasons they are rooting for chaos to create a narrative whereby President Trump is a tyrant and get rid of President Trump. Hard to believe if joe biden were president right now that the mayor of portland would be sitting around naval gazing as his city was attacked by righters and looters as federal courthouses were being attacked. It does feel extraordinarily political. Federal officers going in to protect federal property given the go ahead by federal law. Identified as federal officers. Watching guess at that point toe on the streets something jim clyburn the senator from South Carolina said yesterday thats despicable and lying narrative about people doing the hard work separating sizzles from villains who would destroy us. Harris wow. Emily, you have the line and i wrote it down federal crimes deserve federal response. Is this going to make a difference at this point or does it just ignite things . I think thats the question. With these mayors saying get out of our cities, what does that tell the citizens in the street . Should they fight harder or go home . Wow. Emily federal intervention is the only option left. Local Law Enforcement is not enough. We are watching a war on the streets of portland and, also one here in seattle where i live. And it seems as if the country is numb to it. It seems as if, well, its to be expected that the 55th straight night of protest in portland, the an arcky, th agitation, oh we are used to it. I cant describe how personal it feels for residents or for people like me who have friends and family who are residents in these cities here and how helpless it feels to watch my governor and mayor talk about or down play the violence, down play the destruction. How many officers have to die like Jonathan Shoup here in seattle . How many businesses have to be destroyed like the entire downtown of portland or the entire downtown of seattle for there to be an effective reaction and, harris, you mentioned the need for the mayor to talk with the police chief there in chicago. Well, here last night chief carmin best of the Police Department had a Business Walk with Business Leaders in certain neighborhoods and they everything that they were voicing is so common sense, its so reasonable, hopelessness, not feeling heard, not feeling supported. The destruction, defunding would have. And the fact that city council and the mayor reflect nothing. Final point, its just really hard to hear democratic pundits or pundits in general go on tv and talk about jurisdiction and talk about that the military aggression of Law Enforcement when we are sitting here watching our cities be destroyed. Harris all right. Were going to move on. Election day is still more than 100 days away, just barely. And, yet, campaigns are kicking it into high gear looking to court crucial voters at this second. How americans in key swing states could make their voices heard months in advance. Ok everyone, our mission is to provide complete, balanced nutrition for strength and energy. Whoohoo great tasting ensure with 9 grams of protein, 27 vitamins and minerals, and nutrients to support immune health. To listen, is to hear more than whats being said. And offer the answers that make someone feel truly heard. I understand, lets get started call a Dell Technologies advisor today. Harris 103 days away but elections day may be sooner than you think. President trump and joe biden are facing a time crunch to appeal to voters as key swing states including michigan, pennsylvania and florida will allow early voting beginning in september. Wow, thats coming fast. The Trump Campaign reportedly spent nearly 20 million over the past 20 days on ads, which paint joe biden and democrats as weak on crime. Watch. The radical left wing agenda take over our cities, defund the police, pressure more towns to follow and joe biden stands with them. Harris meanwhile, joe biden and his old boss hit the president over his handling of the coronavirus pandemic in a socially distanced conversation set to be released in its entirety tomorrow. Imagine standing up in prison saying its not my responsibility. I take no responsibility . I mean literally. Those words did not come out of our mouths while we were in office. I dont understand his inability to get a sense of what people are going through. He just cant he cant relate in any way. Harris ben shapiro in the house with us today. Is that relatable or not . I think that biden so far to be frank has run a pretty smart campaign. He has been able to stay around in his basement which is really perfect for him since im not sure he is able to go that far outside of his basement in normal circumstances. Because is he running a fairly nondescript campaign makes it difficult wild eyed leftist. When i hear joe biden and barack obama talk about never evaded responsibility. All i can think about all the times barack obama found out about all the things happening inside his administration on the news happened every 36 hours during his administration. Im glad the campaign is kicking into high gear here frankly. The president of the United States has so far failed to lay a glove on biden he may get do it quickly because the polls are not fantastic at this point. Harris jessica . Jessica i do think it works for joe biden to be emphasizing his humanity. People talked about him as potential consoler in chief. Facing 132,000 dead americans thus far and no real plan to combat the coronavirus forthcoming as kids are supposed to go back to school. Americans are looking to someone who seems like frankly they care about whats going on in their homes. Thats Kitchen Table issues because healthcare is an economic issue so for people who say its the economy. Guess what, healthcare is the economy and vice versa. So i think thats smart for joe biden and on the law and order or law and crime ad campaigns that President Trump is putting out there, not only is he grossly misrepresenting what is going on he used footage from 2014 in kiev when key there was a democratic uprising against yanna velicovich to put in one of his ads to trick people to think thats whats going on on americas streets. Not just democrats that think its a problem. They could start using ads Michael Chertoff and tom ridge the first boss of the dhs who both come out and said what President Trump is doing in terms of dispatching federal troops sun settling and unamerican. Joe biden is doing the right thing and President Trump has to focus on that coronavirus. Thats what people care about. They need to stay alive and they need to get back to work. Harris you are right about that. You are looking at on that particular point fox news polling found just this week that covid19 ranks number one by some points. The economy second place at 15 . Katie . Katie yeah, all of those things are tied together and the president has to be able to do more than one thing at a time. And he does care about a lot of things. He cares about the fact that the suicide hotlines in this country are completely overwhelmed. More people are committing suicide as a result of the loss of Economic Prosperity from this virus. He is concerned about the overwhelming and Record Number of overdoses in this country as a result of government shutdowns. And its really easy and convenient for someone to like joe biden to sit and campaign in his basement and criticize all of the really tough hard decisions is that are being made by people
