Koh: If he were serious about cutting crime he wouldn't be proposing cutting $400 million from the ATF or cutting $500 million from the FBI, 700 agents or the DEA with with drug enforcement or the office of violence against women, 100 million from there

Didn't he steal money allocated to D.C. for the police department and other public services?
-
And We expect more?
-
All these people do is talk. The amount of useless commentary and banter does absolutely nothing to save democracy. We need the facts. We need to have reliable news sources. We don’t need a bunch of commentators spewing their views for ratings and normalizing fascism.

Violent Crime in D.C. Hits 30 Year Low
Total violent crime for 2024 in the District of Columbia is down 35% from 2023 and is the lowest it has been in over 30 years, according to data collected by the Metropolitan Police Department (MPD) a...

All of that money will go into ICE, Trump is an international terrorist.
#PedoPOTUS #ImpeachTheFelon
-
That's so he can pay for his national police force.
-
If he was serious about cutting crime ... He wouldn't be a criminal
-
Meanwhile, he has DEA agents out here patrolling evening joggers and tourists at, the already most secured, park in the country. Got them out there looking like TopFlight Security guards 🤦🏽♀️ bsky.app/profile/drew...
-
It's all going to backfire on Trump and his admin.
They will be on our side.
You can't stop millions of people from marching in the streets.
-
He doesn't want us to protest.
Sept. 1st. 5050.one Workers over Billionaires!
VOTE THEM OUT signs across the nation and across his wide screen TV. Pic of Trump/Epstein on the other side of sign.
Trump hates it when millions of people rise up.
Double/triple No Kings.
-
Its almost as if Jennings has never heard these figures
-
Bingo
-
-
This administration is a Fascist regime. Wake up, America. Arm yourselves!!!!
-
Why do CNN guests sugar coat everything? If he was serious about cutting crimes he wouldn't have freed ~= 1500 J6ers, nor the founder of Silk Road nor freed this murderer (Stopping here, but the list is a mile long.):

Convicted Murderer Released by Trump From Venezuelan Prison Is Free in U.S.
-
Duh. 🙄
-
He wants to consolidate all that power under the banner of DHS. That will give Donald a domestic army he needs to implement his police state. youtu.be/2b1cPgsYe9E
-
😡
-
He is only serious about ending democracy.
-
Can someone at CNN tell Scotty to fuck himself and fire him? His 1/6/21 tweet called out the Orange Hitler for the insurrection
Now he spends his day kissing Orange’s ass
-
I can't with this show. Unwatchable.
-
He just doesn't want to see the homeless alongside the road on his way to the golf course, so he called in the Army.
-
Scott Jennings looks uncomfortable. I wonder how this started....
-
Exactly
-
They want free wheeling crime spree, hang your heads down!
-
Yet, he's increasing DHS budget for his new personal paramilitary by billions. 🤔
-
RELEASE THE EPSTEIN FILES!
-
FELON TRUMP IS POCKETING BILLIONS OF TAXPAYERS MONEY - HES A FUCKING CROOK - I MEAN MUSK AND TRUMP HACKED HIM INTO OUR HOUSE - HES NOT EVEN OUR PRESIDENT!!!
-
Saw a bit of this and very good points. But Jennings and the other 47 boot licker went crazy. They have set talking points and cannot rationally think outside of that small box.
-
And all we seem to be able to do is sit around and talk about it. Where are the Democrats?
-
DC should host a peaceful night out with music and laughing and everyone in the streets. Film it and post it everywhere with a caption "Night life in crime-ridden DC."
-
Triple murderer Dahud Hanid Ortiz, dual American and Venezuelan citizenship, was released in the U.S. after serving 6 years and 9 months behind bars, per the June prisoner swap with Venezuela.
He is currently in the Orlando, FL, area.
-
So who is actually defending law enforcement here? His name is trump
-
Jennings has one of the most punchable faces on network news.
-
This isn't about crime. It's about anticipated protests.
-
The Scream Show. Great topics, totally out of control participants. Typical Yanks, IMO.
-
-
Actually reducing money that is wasted on the War on Drugs is a good way to cut crime, but that’s obviously not his intent and another discussion altogether.
-
He isn’t “serious” about anything. He’s a blithering, #corrupt #idiot.
-
Well he needs money to build a nuclear reactor on the moon and a few other little necessities.
-
EXACTLY
-
-
-
-
-
-
-
-
-
He’s a criminal. He doesn’t want to cut crime. He just wants control so he can be a criminal with impunity.
-
the average homeless person on the streets of DC has thirty-four fewer felony convictions than the current president of the United States...
-
ALL ABOUT CONTROL!!! 100%
-
Control and theater; he thinks it makes him look strong, decisive and effective. Unfortunately, a lot of the brain-dead chumps in his base eat it up. In fact it is like his military parade, a colossal waste of time and money that accomplishes nothing.
-
Distract from Epstein files.
-
Oh
-
Trump lives in a fantasy hell-hole, and wants you to believe you do too. It's childish bullshit, and anyone with one iota of intelligence will see through this bullshit. He is a lawless fuck, doing everything he can to distract from his biggest Epstein file problem, and make himself look tough.
-
-
Well, how else will he finish gilding the White House? Rob the poor to impress the rich, aye?
-
He is Full of bull...
-
We used to have Tricky Dick, now we have the Tricky Toadstool.
-
Go figure! And MAGA Foollowers keep supporting this Orange Narcissistic Sociopath. I guess they have lost the ability to think and analyze by themselves. Every hour produces strong evidence that this President needs to be removed and yet they don’t see!!! Brain dead? Brainwashed? Blind and deaf?
-
It’s not about crime…
-
The fake President is trying to build an army to stay in power & out of prison. It’s starting to become obvious what he & all his other Russian Asset accomplices have done. He’s scared…it leaked that the NSA audited our election & it’s a matter of time before the third party leaks the Epstein tapes!
-
Criminals are rarely "tough on crime"
-
True
-
Correct! The show of police-force is for intimidation, not at all for reducing crime. Red meat for the moron base.
-
Its already here.
-
It’s always bullshit with Trump. I feel like we need to stop paying attention to what he says and keep filing lawsuits immediately after what he does.
-
He never runs out of diabolical plans. Never.
-
Trump is simply a professional liar, deceitful, and treats us as if we have no brain.
-
Trump is all show and no go!
-
How does a convicted felon, an adjudicated sexual assaulter, a criminal…talk about crime?! When he himself belongs incarcerated for his convicted crimes…outrageous and ridiculous! 🤦🏻♀️
-
We will see in court. This better not go to drunk judge..
-
Felon wants to 'crack some heads' just like his first term. America deserves better. And that requires Justice.
-
MAGA people aren’t so smart they could figure that out.
-
-
This is a fascist coup….ffs stop pretending it’s anything else…defcon 2
-
Boom. Well said.
-
Scott sure kept his piehole shut for longer than usual.
-
Very clearly and concisely said.
-
-
Scott Jennings Does not care. CNN does not care The MAGA/QAnon 77 million Voters do not care. The Republican House & Senate do not care. The right wing SCOTUS does not care. The Billionaires do not care. Wall Street Corporations do not care. The Project 2025 Christian White Nationalists do not care.
-
Or pardoning 1700 Jan 6 violent insurrectionists
-
Another day, another ……..SQUIRREL!!!
-
Put this fascist administration in jail and we'd cut crime way down. Put the Republicans in Congress in jail and it would be even more. Add the people he pardoned, and we'd have almost no crime left.
-
I'm not sure he doesn't just want to be the "YOU'RE FIRED" guy regardless of outcome. He can do it on his own and apparently he thinks it makes him look strong.
-
It’s never been about decreasing crime - it’s all about the accumulation of power and wealth by way of the implementation of authoritarianism.
-
Sounds like the road map Hitler used
-
Anything with that jack face Scott Jennings on it, will get a hard pass from me.
-
-
Ask Scott to explain why Ghislaine was given a lighter security stay. How’d she get so lucky?
-
Trump moved his Ghislaine Maxwell to Texas to protect his vile secrets. Ghoulish Ghislaine’s low security detention allows her to leave the premises. She r*ped and trafficked these girls…and Trump indulged in the illicit perversion.
-
Jennings is starting to resemble Pee Wee Herman. I can't imaging the anxiety that guy feels every morning when he opens his eyes. Living a life of lies is hard. Hope he dies early.
-
#FUCKREPUBLICANS
-
The only thing he is serious about is enriching himself— financially or egotistically.
If he wasn’t so dangerous, he would be a joke.
-
I see CNN is still platforming liars like Scott Jennings. Good game.
-
Jennings sitting there trying to come up with some justification and coming up blank.
-
That's the thing, though - he's not just cutting funds, he's redefining what "crime" looks like. And if you're not part of the "right" crowd, you're just a statistic.
-
Always fun to watch Jennings try to process facts he doesn't like. Koh is spot on, irrefutably.
-
That's why this is called an " EPSTEIN DISTRACTION"
-
-
We have a reality tv show sexual predator bankrupting grifting felon as president. Still can’t believe it
-
Wonder what Jennings the quisling will say when the orange paedo is gunning Americans down in the street..it was always white, straight, rich Americans first everyone else is a target.
-
This is just another forward step towards a complete fascist takeover. It’s part of the plan. This scenario was easy to extrapolate at the beginning of his reign. If this comes as a surprise then you haven’t been paying attention.Not much imagination needed to see where you are going America.
-
its all pony show ..and rely s on stupid to suck it up...
-
Just distraction to get the Epstein files out of the news cycle .
-
It’s not and never was about cutting crime or cutting waste or doing anything for the benefit of the community. It’s about seizing and securing as much authoritarian power as possible before JD takes the reigns
-
Curious was there a comeback from Jennings? Let me guess talking points…
-
Trump is only serious about emptying the government coffers of as much money as he, his family and friends can steal.
-
End the crime wave! Arrest Trump!
-
OH, just some more DISTRACTION
MAGA goonie "logic"
RELEASE UNREDACTED EPSTEIN/TRUMPER FILES & LISTS NOW!!!
NO MORE DISTRACTIONS!!!
THE WHOLE WORLD IS WATCHING & KNOW EXACTLY WHAT YOU'RE DOING 'trumpy dumpy' !!!
-
Equivocating on camera will do nothing — it’s NOT the $$$$
-
They're forgetting that the Turd is a dumb dictator!
-
-
They are only serious about making money.
-
The simple answer is, he's cutting everything in order to commit the funds to the military, which he is already using as his own private police force. And we're letting him get away with it.
-
MAGA nationalist thrive on crime— they are crafted at keeping it going. They know sending troops into a city unnecessarily will create chaos, its needed for spin. They manufacture reasons for it, then project it onto Democrats or certain segments of the country. They are masters at it.
-
Whoa! An entire clip, and Jennings said nothing for 42 seconds. Is he hungover?
-
That money’s going to DHS & DOD.
The massive and massively rushed build up & domestic deployments are in advance of what? Not just a police state. They’re anticipating a huge outcry against something they’re about to do. Start digging. Get that scoop.
-
Truth to power!
-
-
They cut $1 billion to DC.
-
FBI agents riding bicycles through the streets of D.C.
makes us look like a bunch of clowns
-
I’m only here for a fuck u Jennings
-
No one is more rude, arrogant, and disrespectful than that Ben guy. I guess CNN wants a MAGA jackass as part of the show. Big mistake. Love Abby but can’t continue to watch if that guy becomes a regular.
-
scott jennings, the ultimate white privileged scumbag. nothing bothers him, but always angry about nothing.
-
Thank you, President Trump for making DC safe again.
-
Said it clear and factually. Listen up. May be nearing our last chances to act.
-
Why govern when you can distract the world from fact that you are in the #epstein files and you are unwilling to #releasethefiles?
-
TACO trump will do anything to get the Epstein List out of the headlines.
-
Jennings knows he's supporting a pedo fascist. You can see it in his face.
-
Come on Jennings, say something stupid so I can click the shut-the-fuck-up button.
-
Anything to distract from the Epstein files
-
And evil clown, doing everything to destroy America
-
Violence against women is only an issue when they can make racist hay out of it.
-
🎪 Ooh...DONOLD likes to control women...woman...I guess we know the assignment now...💕
-
Summed it up well. I wonder how Scott defended his brain addled boss.
-
A convicted felon hard on crime .... Only in America
-
What I'm seeing from all this is Dirty Don has convince himself that every single person on this Earth is dumber than he is, Truth be known that would be impossible !!!
-
They're staging, Orange Fuckface is going to go full dictator and he believes the troops won't immediately depose him.
-
He doesn't give a damn about crime, but the more money that's diverted from legitimate purposes, the more there is in the system, and the more he can divert for himself.
-
The men at @cnn.com are truly some of the worst on MSM
-
How the hell is Scott Jennings still alive??
-
But how could he be serious about cutting crime? He IS crime. Crime has taken over the US and every new policy has the needs of criminals at its heart
-
💯; just.showing receipts
-
-
Why does Trump lie pathologically?
A lack of respect for the collective intelligence:🇺🇸
Lying suggests the liar believes the other person is either too naive to see through the deception or not deserving of the truth.
📍Trump fooled the country, not once but TWICE.
Stupid is as stupid does.
-
90% of America: CNN still exists?
-
How does anyone watch CNN?? Look at that idiot ringing his hands because he can't stand what he's hearing. Lol. Not sure what his name is, I call him ass hole.
-
Trump is a twat…
-
Wasn't Scott Fucking Jennings supposed to be leaving CNN? If they'd like their ratings to go up again, they should kick his ass out yesterday.
-
He’s not serious about anything and we know that by now. Let’s stop trying to justify anything he says. Let’s concentrate on ending his rule.
-
Good point here!
-
Fuck anyone who sits down with Jennings. That show is trash anyway.
-
TRUMP & REPUBLICANS ALWAYS LIE... No more talking & courts. Trump & Republicans are against American constitution & only way to stop Trump & Republican FEAR is for local police to stand-up protecting public & eliminate the FEAR reinstating American constitution.
Are Trump's claims about 'dangerous' Washington, DC backed by data?
The President has repeatedly claimed that Washington, D.C. has high crime rates.
-
Ugh, SJ that Howdy Doody mfer.
-
Common sense on a political talk show? Nooo...
-
Funny how that maga guy on the panel (I honestly always forget his name) never seems to interrupt White men speaking.
-
PS: Oh, and get ready...Los Angeles and D.C. may be just a warning, a honing of the FASCIST BAYONET as the 2026 and 2028 elections approach...
-
That's nice, but the real problem is that as long as he uses the law, as long as bureaucrats "follow orders", as long as spineless politicians back him, and the "supreme" Frankencourt slaps down lower courts, the OLD DICTATOR can do whatever he wants...and apparently no one can stop him...
-
While Scott Jennings literally dies inside 😏
-
That about sums it up in a terrifying way.
-
That guy sounds terribly competent; oh yeah, Biden Administration Professional
-
Orange pedo knows that it is the real criminal. It’s trying to stay out of jail.
-
Or forcing law abiding citizens to rob banks in order to pay for their existence. Republicans are SUCKERS AND LOSERS !
-
If / then If / then If / then
He’s NOT serious about it. Any of it.
He’s serious about Jeffrey Epstein.
-
This☝️

✊Support my run to fight Hakeem Jefferies during the June primary for NY-8 Brooklyn!
WE WILL BREAK THE FUCKING WHEEL! It’s time that we get PAC money out of politics! It’s time that WE THE PEOPLE gut the establishment!
Welcome to the Era of the Zero Tolerance Left! Change is Here! Vance B for NYC✊
-
If Trump backed the blue, he wouldn't have pardoned over a thousand creeps that came to the Capitol with violence on their minds.
-
He is right, moving ATF, FBI and DEA to ICE is ludicrous
-
There’s no consistent correlation between spending on law enforcement and crime rates, and the last thing we need from Dems is the argument that society is better when we expand the police state
-
Absolutely correct. We need to be a bit afraid of all this. Where is the anger and fight from dems. Meaning, what's their plan. The R's have been planning and meeting for years. Their PACS and Orban and Erdogan and Project25. What have the dems been planning? eh? what?
-
Bravo
-
that’s right ! he needs to be impeached !
-
EVERYTHING the Trump Administration says is a LIE.
-
-
TRUTH! Yet, why are so many people including Dems, media, law enforcement etc. capitulating to him. He's a weak, insecure, stupid, mentally-disturbed-demented megalomaniac who could've and should've been stopped in his tracks years ago.Beggars belief why non-Maga bow down to such a pathetic low-life
-
He’s only serious about controlling & imprisoning minorities. They failed to get Bondi’s brother in as DC bar president. This is plan b on controlling the trajectory of criminal justice & the federal circuit, among other nefarious plans.
-
-
He’s not serious about anything but corruption
-
That’s the longest period of silence I’ve ever seen from Jennings.
-
The counterpoint to a nice person
Scott Jennings
-
Does Scott Jennings have a dedicated cameraman and contract that requires his nasty smirking face shown ALL THE TIME.
-
Epstein
-
Release the Trump/Epstein files.
#ReleaseTheTrumpEpsteinFiles #99vs1
-
I mean how else can Trump afford $170B in deficit spending on his Immigrant Terror and Imprisonment Campaign?
-
So Abbey- what really is the strategy for continuing to have unrepentant liar, Scott Jennings continue to embarrass your platform day after day?? We would rather have nothing from the right as opposed to complete lies.
-
Its kind of hard to take a criminal [criminals] serious saying they're "serious about crime 🤔🙃🤣
-
Well said by Koh.
-
The Republican commentators have sold their souls. They defend any and all Trump actions, dumb, illegal, backwards, hateful, racist, or otherwise. Character matters and should not be for sale. Their families probably hate them.
-
He could actually care less about crime, he just wants to divert our attention away from him. The more he points over there, the more we should say, but wait, what about this.
-
So Don’t let him!!!’
-
Or maybe going to Mississippi, where crime really is worse and rising
-
Cutting funding to the IRS is especially diabolical if we really care about crime.
-
So where are all these millions and billions now going ?
