anywhere. that dog won t hunt. america is not buying into that. it s a non-starter of a conversation. our conversation here is about prosecutors that have been elected in los angeles, san francisco, chicago, my beloved indianapolis where we don t have strong leadership from a prosecutor. we are seeing judges unbelievably upset that they can t actually get the cases to them and cops that are upset and the citizenry upset. this is about americans voting properly and you won t hear biden talk about it because the people in the positions as prosecutors are the same people that identify with the progressive wing of the party. jacqui: less than 30 seconds left. kevin, do you think the biden administration needs to weigh in a little bit more on these things? absolutely yes. that s why i supported the president in the primary campaign and general election and you saw him speak passionately in the state of the union where we have to fund the police. that s what you re seeing out of the admini
