Larry Krasner attended $1,000-a-head fundraiser with John Legend, Elizabeth Warren
Hours after eight people were shot in broad daylight outside a Philadelphia train station, the city’s top law enforcement official downplayed a historic violent crime surge during a $1,000-a-head reelection fundraiser with Hollywood and Democratic VIPs, according to audio obtained by the Washington Free Beacon.
District attorney Larry Krasner did not mention the tragic event in his virtual address to liberal celebrity John Legend, Democratic Massachusetts senator Elizabeth Warren, and wealthy liberal donors. Krasner did, however, paint critics of his progressive crime policies as ignorant, lamenting that they get their understanding of crime from “watching Law & Order on television” and hold irrational fears of “werewolves running up and down the street.”
“Needless to say—screams, ranting and raving, ‘There will be a crime wave; there will be werewolves running up and down the street; they’re gonna grab you people out of your house and take them out of the back!'” Krasner said of the response to his progressive bail reforms. “Except no, that’s not what happened.”
The comments come as Philadelphia experiences a record surge in homicides, which Krasner minimized as purely pandemic-induced and unrelated to his policies. But homicide rates have increased every year since Krasner took office in 2018, jumping to a 30-year high in 2020. Philadelphia is now on pace to experience its deadliest year in history in 2021. Those stats put the city at the “low end of the terribleness going on” nationally, Krasner claimed during the fundraiser.
Philadelphia Fraternal Order of Police president John McNesby lambasted Krasner for attending the February fundraiser “after eight people were shot and while people are being shot at a record pace under his watch,” saying the decision “shows what he cares about.” He added that Krasner “dismisses law enforcement” and has “zero cooperation” with the city’s police commissioner.

Today’s Goliath is the Mainstream Media Industrial Complex that brainwashes the masses.
Our mission is very straightforward: To counter the false narratives and nefarious agendas destroying America today.

But we’re fighting and we will continue to do so, Lord willing, for as long as we possibly can. The battle for America’s present and future is too important for us to back down to the giants that stand in our way.
We need help. I don’t want to say “desperately,” but the need is definitely great. If you have the means, please donate through our GivingFuel page, PayPal, or our Substack page.
