other cities stick them on buttons and send them here now this is like a homeless camp. iei walk one block that way,i move from seeing professionals seeing ten people in a row actively shooting up. urinating on the streets shooting heroin on the street should be illegal. laura: that is a fox news digital exclusive with san francisco residents on the homeless crisis in their city. get this, instead of tackling the problem, local leaders talks talking about redefining how they help the homeless. that s cute. they call that big business for vagabonds. here now is charlie hurt founder and executive director of turning point usa, and ethan bierman, nationally syndicated radio host. all right, charlie, why is san francisco playing the blame game and the redefinition of homelessness? that kind of takes the cake. yeah, it doesn t surprise me though. look, i was in san francisco recently, the city is unrecognizable. one of america s greatest cities that has gone so terribly in the
saying that the inspector general s report is coming. this is like the longest long sean: the problem remember laura: nothing is coming. where is it? imdon t see any report. it s disappointing. sean: i ll give you the answer. what has happened is, alle of a sudden, people like christopher steele decided to talk. they didn t have that opportunity. also, others that did speak, when they realized the significance and seriousness of it, realized they were in trouble, they all started to talk, too, and then it took on the counterintelligence aspect of outsourcing illegal activities here, and that woulde gathering be spying and intelligence gathering. laura: all right. sean: it s all coming together. laura: that s like with my kids. i was driving with my kids in california, and they kept saying, when are we going to get there? when are going to get here? sean: the wheels of justice go slow, but i can tell everything we reported has been dead-on accurate. laura: i can t
laura: you made your two points. my point, though, is we have a systemic problem inpo urban america. i just got through with quite an extensive tour of california. i love california. people coming up to me, what is going on in our cities? we love our cities, we love our state.this is a disaster. it s not even partisan. this, what s happening, isn t working for the poorest of the poor. it s not working. it s getting better under trump because they have more opportunities, but those problems, horace, you can chime in here, i think they use race as a cudgel, because they know if trump does an event in baltimore, he will probably have a big crowd, if antifa doesn t mess it up, he might even have a few more solutions that might actually work. absolutely, and that s the problem. they don t want to have a discussion about solutions because they ve been happy, they olare complacent. as long as they stay in power, as long as they keep getting
laura: but hold on san francisco spent $305 million last year on the homelessness crisis. at some point, do we not think huh, may be how they are deploying their money where their solutions aren t working. supermajority, democrat-run city, there are no republicans they run them out, that s how it works, but at some point, do we say, okay, who s chance is it next to fix this problem? democrats just want to say this has been going on for decades but they have been at g the helm for now decades in san francisco, have they not? so, again, this goes back to certain court rulings and laws.. we just passed a new law here in california that allows extended conservatorship. it s upsetting certain groups, but it will allow us to provide the services that are needed for the visible homeless. and i want to point out quickly charlie really misapplied the
if biden was really 2.0, he would be doing better. he has picked up about seven points in the most recent polling, and you ve also seen the other candidates, who we thought were going to start competingbe with him. kamala harris has dropped substantially, elizabeth warren is down a little bit. the other problem that biden has right now, he is just a big government conservative in a party that is increasingly dominated by actual socialists. so the question he is kind of struggling with is how far to the left, how close to the socialist angle does he have to go to make sure he doesn t begin to hemorrhage votes to sanders or elizabeth warren? and it s a really difficult omace to be, because right now the argument has to make, as tom pointed out, is he electable in a general election. but if he continues to veer too far to the left to maintain or pull over the socialist votes it puts him in a real challenging position moving into a race against trump. laura: tom, what does this mean, tho
