After fighting city council members last year, Washington, D.C.’s mayor is the latest Democrat to demand more police officers when shots ring out, but a veteran law enforcement officer says it’s a little late for the nation’s capital.
Mayor Muriel Bowser announced this week she wants 170 more officers on the Metropolitan Police roll call. That request comes after the city council took a hatchet to the police budget last year — over Mayor Bowser’s objections — and now the murder rate has jumped 20% over a two-year span.
All totaled, the Metropolitan Police Budget was cut approximately $10 million last year.
New York City, Oakland, Baltimore and Los Angeles are among the other cities that are refunding the defunding because of out-of-control crime.
Randy Sutton of Law Enforcement News Network says you can’t just put that genie back in the bottle.
“It’s too little too late,” he tells One News Now. “You can’t just throw a little money at the problem and expect that it’s going to be solved.”
First of all, he explains, cities are going to have a hard time finding many candidates – let along qualified ones – to join the force. St, Louis, he says, scheduled a police test for recruits but nobody showed up.

“Not one person applied for the police department,” he says. “That’s a major bellwether.”
When you do find potential future police officers, they must pass the initial tests and background checks, then it’s off to the academy, he points out. Then there is field training with an experienced colleague and a probation period. Then they hit the streets to hopefully gain important experience.Beyond the years of training and learning the dangerous streets, there is a newer problem many law enforcement officers are learning about: police-hating, criminal-defending district attorneys who are winking at many crimes and letting criminals go unpunished.“Radical district attorneys like Gascon in Los Angeles, Boudin in San Francisco and Kim Foxx in Chicago,” Sutton warns, “they’re basically letting people go.” We moderate all reader comments, usually within 24 hours of posting (longer on weekends).

Yes, We Need Your Help
I hate being “that guy” who asks people to donate because I think our conservative news network is so crucial, but here I am…
When I left my cushy corporate job in 2017, I did so knowing that my family would have to make sacrifices. But I couldn’t continue to watch the nation slip into oblivion and was inspired by President Trump’s willingness to fight the good fight even at his own personal expense. What I didn’t realize then is that conservative media would be so heavily attacked, canceled, and defunded that the sacrifices would be extreme.
Many in this nation are struggling right now even though we weren’t struggling just a few years ago. I’m not alone. But I wake up every morning and operate the sites we’ve been able to build because there’s really no other choice. I refuse to be beholden to Big Tech like so many other conservative news outlets, which is why you won’t see Google ads here. With that said, it’s often challenging to pay the bills and it’s even harder to expand so we can get the America First message out to a wider audience.
The economic downturn has forced me to make a plea for help. Between cancel culture, lockdowns, and diminishing ad revenue, we need financial assistance in order to continue to spread the truth. We ask all who have the means, please donate through our Giving Fuel. Your generosity is what keeps these sites running and allows us to expand our reach so the truth can get to the masses. We’ve had great success in growing but we know we can do more with your assistance.
We currently operate:
- NOQ Report
- Conservative Playlist
- Uncanceled News
- Based Underground
- Five other conservative news sites
I would even be willing to entertain investments and partnerships at this stage. I’ve turned them down in the past because editorial purity is extremely important. I’ll turn them down again if anyone wants us to start supporting RINOs or avoid “taboo” topics like voter fraud, vaccines, or transgender supremacy. But I’d talk to fellow America First patriots who want to help any (or all) of our 10 news sites. Hit me up at jdrucker (at) substack (dot) com if you’re interested.
For those who have the means and just want to help keep the mission of spreading a conservative, Christian message to the nation, please consider a generous donation.
