Washington, DC – White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki touted President Joe Biden’s meeting with law enforcement officials on Monday as another step in his plan to get illegal guns off the streets, but the meeting didn’t have much police leadership.
The Associated Press categorized those in attendance as “urban leaders.”
President Biden convened the meeting with Attorney General Merrick Garland, “law enforcement leaders,” and elected officials on July 12 and once again ticked off the same list of gun-control measures he announced on June 23, ABC News reported. Psaki told reporters at a White House press briefing that the group would discuss President Biden’s “comprehensive plan to reduce gun violence and violent crime.”
The President’s plan included making gun dealers and manufacturers liable for how their products are used, using federal stimulus funds to pay for more police and tax credits to incentivize businesses to hire convicted felons, along with a promise to provide housing and federal jobs for felons.
Invitees to the meeting at the White House included DC Mayor Muriel Bowser and the Democratic nominee for New York City mayor, Eric Adams, along with two police chiefs, ABC News reported.

The highly-publicized crime surge meeting came on the heels of the Biden administration receiving “ 3 Pinocchios ” from The Washington Post for a failed attempted to pin rising crime problems on the GOP.

President Biden’s team was widely mocked for trying to blame defunding the police on Republicans, and claimed the White House had provided crime-plagued cities with crime-fighting funding in the form of pandemic relief funds.
National Sheriff’s Association Executive Director Jonathan Thompson, who wasn’t invited to the meeting, called on President Biden to stop playing politics with law enforcement, the Washington Examiner reported.“We implore the president to call for an end to the political demagoguery of both parties that is doing more harm than good,” Thompson said. “No responsible leader has called for the defunding of police, and now is the time to admit […]

They’re Trying to Shut Us Down
Over the last several months, I’ve lost count of how many times the powers-that-be have tried to shut us down. They’ve sent hackers at us, forcing us to take extreme measures on web security. They sent attorneys after us, but thankfully we’re not easily intimidated by baseless accusations or threats. They’ve even gone so far as to make physical threats. Those can actually be a bit worrisome but Remington has me covered.
For us to continue to deliver the truth that Americans need to read and hear, we ask you, our amazing audience, for financial assistance. We have a Giving Fuel page to help us pay the bills. It’s brand new so don’t be discouraged by the lack of donations there. It’s a funny reality that the fewer the donations that have been made, the less likely people are willing to donate to it. One would think this is counterintuitive, but sometimes people are skeptical because they think that perhaps there’s a reason others haven’t been donating. In our situation, we’re just getting started so please don’t be shy if you have the means to help.
Thank you and God bless!
