White House Audacity! It is Republicans Who Want to Defund the Police!

For the last week or so, the Dems have been (hilariously!) beating a drum trying to flip the narrative and blame the Republicans for defunding the police as they eye the 2022 midterm elections while rising crime has voters nervous.

But, it isn’t so funny when you see the White House is in on the action and literally repeating that Big Lie.

Do they think we are stupid, that we didn’t watch BLM and Antifa demanding the police be defunded for the last year with Democrat weaklings parroting their Commie agitator friends and taking their hefty campaign donations.

Look at all these rowdy Republicans!

Here is the news about the White House scrambling to point a finger at Republicans….

From NBC News which is working really, really hard to help ol’ Joe distance himself from his pals—BLM and Antifa.

White House: Actually, Republicans are trying to defund the police

WASHINGTON — The White House is responding to relentless Republican charges that it wants to “defund the police” by embracing the message that there are, in fact, politicians angling to starve law enforcement of needed money: congressional Republicans.

The White House launched the counteroffensive as advisers push to shore up President Joe Biden’s low approval on crime*** and fight an attack that could damage Democrats in the midterm elections next year.

Congressional Democrats are amplifying the push, highlighting their support for bills that would boost money for policing. They cite Republican opposition to the measures, along with the party’s lack of interest in investigating the Jan. 6 attack on the U.S. Capitol, which left a police officer dead and many more injured, to claim that Republicans aren’t the party of law enforcement.

[….]

“The president, with the backing of leading law enforcement groups, secured the money that his predecessor opposed — to keep cops on the beat — and every single Republican member of Congress voted against it,” White House spokesman Andrew Bates said. “The GOP continues to oppose the American Rescue Plan even as it delivers the rehiring of police in their districts.”

Republicans are seizing on rising concerns about crime to try to recapture control of Congress next year. Biden is vulnerable on the issue — a new Washington Post-ABC News poll finds that 38 percent approve of his handling of crime, while 48 percent disapprove and 14 percent have no opinion.

USA Today/Ipsos poll released in March found that just 18 percent of Americans supported the “defund the police” movement.

In an op-ed Monday for Fox News, Sen. Ted Cruz, R-Texas, slammed the White House’s argument as “gaslighting,” calling it a “desperate ploy to escape blame for rising crime rates.”

There is more here.

The Socialists/Communists (with their friends in the fake news media) are really good at this—they just keep repeating a lie and eventually everyone believes it.

It won’t work this time because unfortunately for them for over a year we all watched who was attacking law enforcement both physically and financially and it wasn’t America First Republicans.

As Crime Rises, Biden’s Approval Numbers Drop

Texas: Families Shocked by Prosecutors’ Decisions in the Kenyan Killer Case

Update!  Daniel Horowitz helps spread this news to a larger audience.  Do not miss his take on what is likely the greatest serial murder of vulnerable seniors in US history being completely ignored by corporate media.

Daniel Horowitz at Blaze Media Posts Excellent Analysis of Texas Kenyan Killer Case

 

If you have been a regular reader here at ‘Frauds and Crooks’ the name Billy Chemirmir should conjure up unimaginable horror at the thought of what families whose elderly loved ones were killed by a Kenyan ‘immigrant’ who stalked vulnerable seniors (almost all white women), gained access to their homes, and allegedly killed them for their jewelry must be going through.

But, adding to a nightmare of losing your beloved mother in this way, is the reality that law enforcement, medical examiners and managers of senior living facilities did not see a pattern early enough to save some of the 24 dead seniors.

Delayed partially due to the Chinese virus crisis, two cases (only two!) are expected to be brought to trial in November where prosecutors have decided against going for a death penalty verdict.

From the Dallas Morning News that has done an incredible job of reporting on the case.

Shame on the national corporate media for pulling the curtains down on a case that goes against their narrative—African (new American!) who supposedly came here for a better life is a brutal killer of our most vulnerable loved ones.

Serial killer Billy Chemirmir has been charged in the murders of 18 seniors, but it is believed that the number of victims (so far) is 24.

Dallas County DA tells victims’ families why he won’t seek death penalty for alleged serial killer

Dallas County prosecutors say they will seek life in prison — not the death penalty — for Billy Chemirmir, who is charged with killing 18 elderly North Texas residents.

And in a strategy that the loved ones of some alleged victims say is difficult to bear, prosecutors also likely will pursue no more than two capital murder cases and seek dismissals for the remaining cases if they win convictions, a decision that has rattled the victims’ families.

District Attorney John Creuzot’s office had filed paperwork nearly two years ago saying that prosecutors would seek the death penalty against him. Authorities say Chemirmir, 48, used his experience as a health-care worker to target older victims, smothering them and stealing their valuables.

In a statement, Creuzot’s office said he spoke with victims’ families last month and explained that he hoped to secure convictions against Chemirmir in two jury trials, each with an automatic sentence of life in prison without parole, and ask a judge to order that those sentences be served consecutively.

“In effect, there will be no chance for Mr. Chemirmir to die anywhere except in a Texas prison,” the DA’s office said.

[….]

https://fraudscrookscriminals.com/2019/05/22/texas-alleged-serial-killer-targeted-women-living-alone-family-in-kenya-hears-the-news/

According to a recording of that meeting obtained by The Dallas Morning News, Creuzot told families that the time involved in preparing for a death penalty case would be too great to pursue.

For example, he said, lawyers from the defense and the prosecution would likely have to travel to Kenya to track down potential witnesses and records to learn more about Chemirmir’s past.

Really! So every time an immigrant is on trial in a death penalty case we must send lawyers back to the hellhole they came from, for what? to find out if he was a killer there too?  What difference does that make if he is found guilty of killing Americans?

Chemirmir is a Kenyan immigrant. He could face deportation if released. [Big deal! He should have been deported for crimes committed before his murder spree because all evidence points to immigration fraud for his presence here in the first place!—ed]

“I don’t know how long that would take,” Creuzot said in the meeting. “I don’t even know if we can get into those countries with COVID-19.”

My guess is that they want all this behind them.  The case goes against the welcoming America message and showcases (in my opinion) poor judgement by those in authority and a series of careless investigations by law enforcement.

All of Chemirmir’s victims were white except, Harris who is Vietnamese.

Fitzmartin [Prosecutor Glen Fitzmartin] said he would try two cases, including the murder of Lu Thi Harris in March 2018. Chemirmir was arrested by Plano police as a suspect in an attempted murder after officers said they saw him throw a jewelry box in a nearby dumpster. The jewelry box had Harris’ name and address, which sent police to her home. She was found dead on her bed. A pillow nearby was smeared with lipstick.

This is the first I have heard about Chemirmir following victims at a local Walmart.

Fitzmartin told families that along with the jewelry box, prosecutors have video footage of Chemirmir following Harris at a Walmart just before her death.

“Although it is circumstantial, it is my strongest circumstantial case,” Fitzmartin said in the meeting.

Fitzmartin also told families he may also pursue the murder of Mary Brooks in Richardson in January 2018, but that he hasn’t decided. Fitzmartin said Brooks and Chemirmir were also seen at the same Walmart before her death, and that a photo on his phone matched a ring similar to hers.

[….]

But the district attorney’s decision to not pursue the other cases for a conviction, some families said, was a bigger surprise.

Before, they had hoped, the other cases would be mentioned in a sentencing phase for the death penalty. Now, they worry, the deaths of their loved ones may never be mentioned in court. A capital murder conviction with an automatic sentence of life without parole doesn’t have a sentencing phrase (sic).

“Most of them will be dismissed,” Fitzmartin said in the meeting. “Because you can’t just keep trying them all.”

There is much more including a timeline of the Kenyan Killer’s trail of death.  Go here(I hope it isn’t behind a paywall for you.)

If it is, you can still get a great deal of information from my archives.

I have been following the case since Chemirmir’s arrest in 2018 which ended his killing spree that is believed to have begun in 2016 (but who really knows exactly when it began!).  See my tag where all of those posts are archived.

Georgia: Pregnant Woman Stabbed by “Man” on Nature Trail

“My life was almost taken. Both my babies’ lives were almost taken.” 

(Valerie Kasper)

Just one more mentally ill homeless black man roaming America and committing violent crimes.

So, why is this story of interest?

Peachtree Creek Greenway a $10 million dollar “model mile” to connect people and places. https://www.peachtreecreek.org/

 

It caught my attention because this violent crime happened on a so-called greenway—a biking and nature trail that weaves its way through neighborhoods allowing public corridors for creeps with a criminal intent to be wandering far from the neighborhoods you would normally avoid and into communities you might assume are safe.

They call it “connecting communities.”  There are lots of papers on it, here is one.

For a little background, know that environmentalists dreamed up the greenway concept, originally called greenlining, knowing it would sell really well to upscale urban and suburban people who do want to exercise and get out into nature.

The next step to the greenlining plan is to control the adjoining properties, which enviros call the viewshed, as a way for the government to control land use.

When pushing new trails on a community, those environmental land use planners downplay the crime corridor potential—like the awful crime here on Atlanta’s Peachtree Creek Greenway.  

If you have trails like these near where you live, never, ever, use them alone! 

And, I would fight like hell to never have one through my community.

See also the story at US News. I didn’t use it because the “man’s” photo is not attached.  Where the photo should be, US News  features a political cartoon about Trump.

LOL!  Does US News have a fear of perpetuating stereotypes?

From CBS 46:

Judge denies bond for man accused of stabbing pregnant woman in Brookhaven

BROOKHAVEN, Ga. (CBS46) — A judge denied bond Friday for a man accused of stabbing a pregnant woman on the Peachtree Creek Greenway on June 5, citing the nature of the alleged crime and previous criminal history.

“Based on the facts and circumstances, as well as his criminal history and being out on bond on two charges — one of which is arguably a violent charge, I do find that he is a risk to the community,” DeKalb County Magistrate Judge Abbi S. Taylor said.

Christopher Jones, 30, was taken into custody Thursday morning near the Arts Center MARTA station. He is charged with aggravated assault with intent to murder, aggravated battery and cruelty to children in the first degree.

Police said a pregnant woman was walking along the Peachtree Creek Greenway with her three-year-old child around 5:30 p.m. when the suspect tried to start a conversation with her. As she walked away, the suspect allegedly stabbed the woman in the back, then stabbed her in her stomach and on her forearm.

“It just seems completely unprovoked and one of those questions that we’ll be asking why forever,” said the woman’s partner and father of her children, named Steven.

He and his partner are both international school teachers who met in Brazil. They were preparing to welcome their second child in September. The baby boy was born via emergency c-section after the attack. They will have a long road ahead.

Fortunately no one is dead this time.

See the video report and you will get a better understanding of why the woman’s partner doesn’t ‘get it.’

Is Your City Following the Path of “Model” Democrat-run City Rochester, NY?

It surely hasn’t escaped your notice that cities roiled by rioting and violent crime in drug-filled neighborhoods and with (of course!) declining populations are run, and have been run, by Democrats for decades.

It has been 50 years since Rochester had a Republican mayor.

But, alas, it would be impossible today to turn the “model city” of Rochester into someplace people chose to live.

And, due to its shrinking population, you watch, the next thing will be to fill it with third world refugees (with Catholic help) as Biden promises that starting in October the first of 125,000 Africans, Middle Easterners and Asians will be landing in America.

Rochester Mayor Lovely Warren commented last summer on how the city is going after gun violence. https://www.whec.com/rochester-new-york-news/mayor-lovely-warren-comments-on-string-of-violence-in-rochester/5840859/?cat=12713

 

Daniel Greenfield has a piece at Frontpage magazine this week that you should read as a cautionary tale, that is, if you haven’t been sufficiently cautioned already about Democrat governing principles.

The Democrat Model for the Future is the Worst City in America

I’ve only snipped a bit to whet your appetitive beginning with this you-can’t- make-this-up news worthy of a Saturday Night Live skit (if SNL wasn’t so PC).

As murders rose 56% and shootings shot up 90%, Rochester decided to offer iPads in exchange for “working handguns and assault rifles”. No questions asked. A week after the “largest gun buyback in Rochester history”, four people were shot in just one day.

Five months after announcing that she wanted to reimagine the police, Mayor Lovely Warren was indicted on campaign fraud charges.

You can’t make this up!

Last month, her husband was busted in the takedown of a drug ring. The cops found a semi-automatic rifle in her home. Warren, who had allied with Bloomberg’s Everytown gun control group, claimed that she knew nothing about the weapon.

It couldn’t have been too shocking since her husband had already been convicted of armed robbery.

Mayor Lovely Warren blamed the whole thing on racism….

Greenfield goes on….

Rochester isn’t suffering from excessive criminalization, but decriminalization. And the last thing a city overrun with drugs needs is more drugs, or police defunding, EV chargers, demolishing highways, or any of the other “progressive” gimmicks that Democrats keep jumping on.

The media is right. Rochester is a model. And a cautionary tale.

The former booming industrial city is a model for what the Democrats want to do to America, gutting industrial bases, replacing work with welfare, and then using black people as lab rats for radical social experiments like drug legalization and police defunding with deadly results.

Being a “model city” now means having every toxic leftist policy idea tested on you.

Democrats have failed at the most basic elements of governance in Rochester. And yet they keep rolling out exciting new ideas to fight global warming or transform society when they can’t even handle their existing responsibilities.

Rochester is the 5th poorest city in the country. It’s also one of the dirtiest, it has the worst schools in the state and some of the lowest literacy rates. The graduation rate hovers between 40 and 50 percent. 75% of Rochester’s children are being raised by single parents.

If Mayor Lovely Warren really wants to “close the wealth gap between Black and Brown people and our White neighbors”, then she might want to start there, instead of writing checks for black people from drug money while turning Rochester streets into war zones with police defunding.

And, it is all the fault of “systemic racism.”

And then they blame the corrupt, violent, and impoverished hellholes their economic and social policies created on “systemic racism”.

There is much more.

And, in case you have forgotten, Black Lives Matter went on a wrecking spree there, in a city run by blacks, last year.

Changing the subject!  See my post yesterday at RRW about how the number of mosques in America is mushrooming.

Biden has a Problem: As Violent Crime Rises, BLM Anti-Police Message Tanking

Watch for the Biden Administration to begin weaving and dodging on issues involving defunding the police and “reimagining” policing as Americans now feel safer about the Chinese Virus, but are feeling increasingly less safe from violence especially in large Democrat run cities.

The George Floyd rioting has finally sunk into the American psyche and many are realizing that they need the police after all.

 

The Republicans just got some news that they can use!

Tie every Dem running in 2022 to the anti-police message of the faltering Black Lives Matter movement.

From Yahoo News:

You can bet the real numbers are even worse for BLM and others pushing their racist message because those polled by Yahoo News likely already leaned to the Left.

Poll: More Americans now say violent crime is a ‘very big problem’ than say the same about COVID-19

In stark contrast to last summer, more Americans now say violent crime is a “very big problem” in the U.S. than say the same about COVID-19, according to a new Yahoo News/YouGov poll — a shift that suggests policing and public safety could come to dominate U.S. politics as the pandemic subsides, potentially putting the Biden administration and Democratic leaders on the defensive.

The survey of 1,588 U.S. adults, which was conducted from May 24 to May 26, found that just 32 percent of them now describe COVID-19 as a very big problem, down from 61 percent last July.

[….]

In a certain sense, this isn’t surprising. While mass vaccination has driven COVID-19 cases, deaths and hospitalizations to their lowest levels in many months, violent crime has been rising (even though it’s still occurring at a far lower rate than it was for much of the 1990s and before).

[….]

Nearly two-thirds of Americans (65 percent) now believe violent crime is increasing, including 76 percent of Republicans, 68 percent of independents and 63 percent of Democrats, according to the Yahoo News/YouGov poll. It’s the rare issue that elicits bipartisan agreement.

The scandal swirling around BLM co-founder Patrisse Cullors sure doesn’t help the image of the racial justice movement. https://nypost.com/2021/05/27/black-lives-matter-co-founder-patrisse-cullors-resigns-amid-controversy/

What is striking, however, is that while anxiety about violent crime has held steady across the political spectrum since last summer, concerns about race relations and sympathy with racial justice reformers have fallen sharply in the wake of the protests that followed the murder of George Floyd one year ago.

Overall, the share of Americans who see race as a “very big problem” in the U.S. is now 13 percentage points lower than it was last July.

As a result, the political scales seem to be tilting away from racial justice reform…

[….]

Last June, for instance, 60 percent of Americans told Yahoo News and YouGov that there was a problem with systemic racism in policing; 63 percent said there was a problem with systemic racism in America. Today, both numbers are significantly lower: 51 percent and 55 percent, respectively. And while 57 percent of Americans had a favorable view of Black Lives Matter last June (compared with 33 percent unfavorable), today more Americans view BLM unfavorably (45 percent) than favorably (43 percent) — a net shift of 26 points against the movement.

In fact, when Americans who believe violent crime is increasing are asked why, far more now blame “the racial justice movement” itself (57 percent) than blame joblessness (44 percent), systemic racism (40 percent) or the pandemic (35 percent).

Then this made me laugh….”Experts debate…”   There is no debate. Anyone with half a brain could see that the Progressives’ rhetoric was encouraging violence.

Yahoo News continues:

Experts debate whether progressive reforms and critical rhetoric have played any role in encouraging violence; they tend to cite the pandemic and record gun sales  [Duh! up because people are trying to protect themselves—ed] as likelier factors.

Either way, the issue could vex Democrats going forward.

Asked who has done a better job handling crime, more Americans (34 percent vs. 32 percent) and independents (39 percent vs. 23 percent) say Trump than Biden.

More here.

Quick!  Find every Democrat (or weeny Republican) you can find who snuggled up to BLM (or Antifa) in the last year and capture their laudatory words and images before they are scrubbed.
