Psaki MOCKS Americans' concern over 'soft-on-crime' policies and says conservative media reports on surge in violent crime is from an 'alternate universe'
Daily Mail ^

White House press secretary Jen Psaki mocked media outlets who focused on the consequences of 'soft-on-crime' policies during a surge in violence across the country and said some coverage is from an 'alternate universe'.

Psaki was speaking about a Fox News segment during an appearance on the Pod Save America podcast last week when she questioned what 'soft-on-crime consequence' even means and insisted Americans care 'more about what’s happening in their lives than what’s necessarily happening in every cable news chyron'.

She laughed off concerns despite a 510 percent nationwide spike in carjackings over the last year, 24 police officers being shot in January and widespread criticism of Democratic DAs including New York's Alvin Bragg who are going softer on criminals.

She said that while CNN and MSNBC were focused on Ukraine-Russia tensions, 'On Fox is Jeanine Pirro talking about soft-on-crime consequences, I mean, what does that even mean?'

'There's an alternate universe on some coverage,' Psaki said. 'What's scary about it is a lot of people watch that. They think that the president isn't doing anything to address people's safety in New York and that couldn't be further from the truth.'

Psaki then seemed to imply Americans care more about 'what's happening in their lives' than crime spikes.

'People care more about what’s happening in their lives than what’s necessarily happening in every cable news chyron every day,' she said.

The four hosts of the podcast all served as former Obama aides and Psaki served as Obama's deputy press secretary and deputy communications director.

The only alternate universe involved is the fantasy land the Democrats desperately try to live in where reality is what they say it is. To hell with facts and reality.

I have been looking for evidence that those Cern creatures had opened a gateway to an alternate universe.

looks like they are starting to admit it.

She should try being a crime victim. See what it’s like having it be part of her life.

She should live in a location where the dire consequences of bone-headed ‘progressive’ policies are felt every day.

Why are there PSAs dedicated to the violence against Asian Americans? Murder rates up? Criminals walking away from court for violent felonies? smash and grabs daily?

Jen is not good at this gaslighting thing.

I don’t wish it upon her, but wouldn’t it be ironic if this lying pustule of a Press Secretary was herself the victim of a violent crime?

“I hope she gets carjacked soon.”

Coupled with a good beating.

A perfect illustration of the tiny little bubble in which Beltway elitists like her live. Even the leftists around where we live can see the surge in crime for themselves.
