Well, I think he's making a very important point.
Teresa Ledger Fernandez from the great, beautiful and beautifully diverse state of New Mexico.
But I'm also the chair of the Democratic Women's Caucus.
And I think right now we are in a place where women are not safe.
in Trump's America, where people who might be just walking along the street are not safe in Trump's America.
And that's kind of, I think, what the police officer was saying, right?
When you have displays of force rather than protection of community, I think that's kind of what he was touching at.
And we need to remember that Republicans have cut funding
The kind of federal funding that goes into law enforcement.
We cut the COPS grants.
We have cut a billion dollars from the D.C.
We are holding back a billion dollars from the D.C.
So how do they then have the resource to put in to policing?
Democrats have consistently supported funding law enforcement and doing and doing things.
Actually, I mean, I think if you look at the budgets, if you look at the budgets in the law enforcement, we increased funding for law enforcement because we wanted to make sure we did it right because we have to protect people.
And let's go back to Epstein because we need to remember.
It was about crime.
We are talking about this is about crime.
attacks on women yeah this is about trafficking of women and so at the base of epstein is criminal activity that they don't want us to pursue so please yeah i was gonna say the same thing i thought it was like a very important moment because there i think people finally realized in um
I absolutely do, right?
