january, this might not be happening at all. after a lot of democratic internal wrangling, the bill passed the senate over the weekend with exactly zero votes from the house. president biden said he would sign it as soon as he gets it, and the legislation could not be more urgently needed, as he indicated over the weekend. we took office 45 days ago. i promised the american people help was on the way. today i can say we ve taken one more giant step forward in delivering on that promise, that help was on the way. today the white house said the $1400 checks included in the plan could start going out by the end of the month. make no mistake, this bill is massive. it stands to help millions and millions of americans who have been economically crippled by a near year-long pandemic. the bill spends most of the money on the american people, describing it as the most generous form of aid ever going out. more than 93% of children, 69 million, would receive benefits under the plan.
representatives almost at $100 million more per year in law enforcement money than the entire city of detroit. in atlantic, where shoppers are routinely shot at the mall, the police budget is just over $200 million a year. less than half of what those 535 members allocated themselves. to be fair, no one in detroit has to deal with the queue and on shaman, it s not really an apples-to-apples comparison. how do you justify a budget like this? how do you prove that you are so endangered you need more than twice the budget for law enforcement that the entire city of atlanta has in the middle of a crime epidemic? to justify it, democrats picked four carefully curated police officers to testify as the voice of the law enforcement community, we told you but one of them, a man called harry dunn and he would probably turn out to be a partisan activist and we were right about that. watch as he claims to know that officer brian sik nick of the u.s. capitol police died not
people claim these rioters and insurrectionist s tried to do. tucker: does it surprise you the capitol hill police apparently, the personal bodyguards of the nine states congress has a budget that is more than twice that of the entire city of atlanta and more than $100 million the entire city of detroit one of the most dangerous places in the western hemisphere? what is that? i grew up in washington and lived there most of my life. it is the most policed city in the united states with more different police forces active. you have the d.c. police, capitol police, a very large force when it s deployed with everybody out. you have the park police which is no small force either, the fbi, the uniform services, division of the secret service, you have the aqueduct police you have the u.s. mint police, it goes on and on and on and the total budget for it has got to be absently staggering. it doesn t quite surprise me
thing. that adam schiff just complained that others were calling people trade doors? he cried anyway. now how afraid are adam schiff and ken s anger and their friends in congress that the queue and on are coming back? they ve allocated themselves more police protection than most american cities get at a time when most american cities are becoming more dangerous and thousands of americans are dying. and it s not an exaggeration. the u.s. capitol police, the bodyguard had a budget and that number is rising. how much money is that? well, the dangerous city of detroit is $380 million. so the u.s. capitol, 535 elected representatives have almost $100 million more per year in
that capitol police budget would be large, what is surprising is that so few of them were there and ready and fully prepared to meet the onslaughts that came in the aftermath when those people went screaming down to capitol hill. there s a lot to be investigated here about why it was there were so under armed and undermanned because had they been properly deployed, we can all agree these people would not have gotten into the capital and what happened would not have happened. tucker: not a single member of congress was injured. more than a thousand americans have died since then, maybe they should ve spent more time worrying about the rest of the country, that s my personal view you don t have to endorse that but i appreciate your analysis, thank you. the administration is bringing back masked mandates but there still still refusing to stop the flow, the massive flow of covid positive foreign nationals illegally across our southern border, they aren t getting
