Varney: Defund The Police movement clashes with rising crime
FOX Business’ Stuart Varney discusses NYC mayoral candidate Eric Adams going after Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and democratic socialists.
FOX Business' Stuart Varney, during his latest "My Take" on "Varney & Co.," argued New York City mayoral candidate Eric Adams’s popularity is rising as after Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez’s clout is fading.
VARNEY: BIDEN WILL TAKE CREDIT FOR ECONOMIC RECOVERY
STUART VARNEY: Eric Adams is the next mayor of New York. He's a former police officer. And he's declared war on the Defund The Police movement.
That is big news for cities all across the country. It’s big news for the left too, but not the kind of news they want to hear.
Adams is going after Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez. She represents part of New York City. So the future mayor is clashing with a member of Congress over crime and they’re both Democrats!
VARNEY ON CHILD TAX CREDIT: DEMOCRATS ARE BUYING VOTES
Adams says this: "I'm no longer running against candidates. I'm running against a movement. All across the country the DSA socialists are mobilizing to stop Eric Adams. They realize that if I’m successful, we're going to start the process of regaining control of our cities."
Strong stuff, especially coming from a mayor who was elected by minority voters. The rich, white liberal elites of Manhattan preferred socialists!
