KJP Absurdly Blames Republicans When Asked If Biden Thinks Washington, D.C. Is “Safe”
Q: “Does the president believe the nation’s capital is safe for Americans from across the country to come visit?”
KARINE JEAN-PIERRE: “[Republicans] continue to get in the way”

Reporter: The other day you were talking about the crime rate across the country. And you are absolutely correct in saying how the crime rate has gone down in several large cities, New York and Chicago. But here in the District, it is not, and there were 274 homicides here in the District of Columbia in 2023. That’s the highest murder rate in more than two decades, since 1997. This is the President’s home, at least a few days a week. What can he do, personally, about reducing the level of crime that we’re seeing here in the nation’s capital?

MS. JEAN-PIERRE: So, let me just be very clear: All violent crime, not just here — all violent crime anywhere is completely unacceptable. We want to — I just want to make that very clear here.

You know, every community in this country should feel safe, wants to be — want to be safe. And so, that’s important.

But I will say this, you know, congressional Republicans, they don’t seem to feel that way. And I say this because the President has taken action. From the first piece of legislation that he signed into law, American Rescue Plan — only Democrats voted for that; Republicans didn’t vote for that
