Gavin Newsom has done 'horrific' job in California: Ingraham

i'm laura ingram this is the ingram angle from san francisco tonight now you don't have to go all the way to afghanistan to see widespread suffering and despair or to witness a tragic breakdown in civil society you can see that right here just miles from multi-million dollar homes owned by the billionaire titans of the tech world now homelessness and drug abuse it's been a problem here for decades but the situation now is spiraling totally out of control earlier today just a block from a major police precinct we saw people doing crack on the street and washing their clothes at a dirty leaky hydrant this once great american city is cratering and while we're horrified rightly so as the taliban terrorizes the people of afghanistan why are so many num when our people are being terrorized here it's a democrat engineered american tragedy but are the voters finally rising up what we're going to show you tonight will shock you but first the great unraveling that's the focus of tonight's angle the humiliation of america is unfolding before our eyes in a dramatic fashion our president is incapable or unwilling to do the basic tasks of his job from enforcing our border at home to protecting our national security abroad his policies have made america more dangerous the basic cost of living is more expensive today our people are more divided we see that everywhere he staffed his administration with an assortment of radicals and incompetence from his homeland security secretary to his defense secretary we see nothing but examples of ineptitude and arrogance now the taliban is laughing at us the corruption that plagues the pentagon and state department is staggering here's just a few of the low lights first the pentagon which has a budget remember of over 700 billion dollars somehow didn't realize that the afghan army had spent billions training would collapse in just 11 days neither our secretary of defense nor the chairman of the joint chiefs could explain why they were so unprepared both should have been fired i said this they should have been fired last week and determined to double down on failure biden's people want you to believe that the taliban can be trusted with american safety it's absolutely re requiring of us to keep these lines of communication with the taliban open who do have checkpoints out beyond the airport um and uh what we have seen is that this coordination has well this deconfliction has worked well um in terms of uh allowing access and flow to continue what a buffoon second despite spending two decades trying to build a functioning afghan government the state department was somehow totally shocked when afghan president ashraf ghani fled the country leaving us holding the bag well not that secretary of state tony blinken even remembers who that is go back a week the government fell and by the way i was on the phone with with president karzai the day before when he was telling me his intent is he put it to fight to the death well the next day he was gone news flash tony karzai hasn't been the afghan president since 2014. yes ladies and gentlemen that is our chief diplomat all right third our intelligence community which is supposed to be the most able and sophisticated in the world also failed to see any of this coming by this team could have gotten better advice from watching this show than listening to the same people who spent more time on the narrative of january 6 than our exit from afghanistan now fourth the two elected officials in the white house biden and harris apparently have little to no role at all in policy making harris is so unimportant that the biden folks just sent her on a trip to southeast asia now this suggests that biden's aides think harris is not only useless during a crisis but a liability frankly i think that's the best decision they've made over the past week send her out and poor old joe of course he can't answer basic questions about extracting americans from harm's way what i'm not going to do is talk about the tactical changes we're making i don't want to go into the detailed power doing that again i don't want to get into detail about it because he doesn't know the details finally under biden our credibility and our prestige is shot mr foreign policy the dems and the gop warhawks they spent a lot of time remember trying to convince the voters that donald trump hurt america's reputation around the world that was a lie our enemies feared president trump and our allies grudgingly respected him even if they didn't like him all the time they knew his priority was america first but with biden and his cabinet they know it's america on our heels i mean does anyone now trust secretary blinken to negotiate with the chinese of the russians of course not does anyone trust secretary austin and general military successfully organize a military operation that's more complex than let's say the army navy football game no now let's be clear every major player on earth knows that the u.s national security is in the hands of incompetent blunderers they all know that as long as this team remains in place china will gain power at our expense but here's the bitter truth no one close to joe biden really cares chuck schumer doesn't care nancy pelosi is hannity said is holding fundraisers and nap on mask lists she's so worried about cobit no democrats in the center of the house care at all no one in the democratic party is calling for firings or resignations or even demanding accountability the fact is they would rather keep proven incompetence in office with all the problems that creates for our national security then risk losing a single vote in 2024 the pattern of repeated failures though without zero accountability is happening here in california just the same now we know everyone knows that governor gavin newsom has done a horrific job here the unemployment rate in california is 7.6 percent cnbc is ranking california 47th and the cost of doing business here 50th dead last in business friendliness crime skyrocketing and here in san francisco the situation as i said is rapidly deteriorating the stats i've been seeing is that homicides burglaries car break-ins way-ups they're all back on the rise since 2019 correct especially violent crimes um robberies i'm sorry homicides are up 85 85 percent yeah i think i got it at 30 i'd say no they're way up there our non-fatal shootings are up democrat policies here have emboldened criminals murders shootings carjackings all going through the roof now more of my reporting on this later on in the show and again democrats who could do something about it just don't care when millions of californians desperate for some relief from these crises turned to this effort to recall governor gavin newsom the democratic party they didn't even put forward an alternative candidate to replace newsome instead they simply urged californians to reject the recall and accept further decline now compare all of this everything what's been happening on the gop side of politics because we also had an elite that also failed we also had leaders who were unable or unwilling to defend our interests and one by one we push them out the bushes and the cheneys are gone replaced by leaders who are much more closely aligned with what the voters want because in this country we don't have to accept failed leaders we have the power to replace them and that's what we should do so biden may not care if the u.s goes down the drain but we voters we can replace his democratic allies in 2022 and replace him in 2024. so newsome obviously doesn't care about the problems here in california but the voters here will have their say on september 14th and if they vote to recall him they can begin to take their state back remember they want you to feel helpless they want you to believe that they're doing the best they can and if and that it can't be any better than it is right now that's just not true the greatest politician in california's history put it this way i will not stand by and watch this great country destroy itself under mediocre leadership that drifts when run crisis to the next eroding our national will and purpose we have come together here because the american people deserve better from those to whom they entrust our nation's highest officers and we stand united we stand united in our resolve to do something about it what was true in the carter era is true in the biden era californians deserve better americans deserve better everything biden and newsome touch is unraveling including their poll numbers but we don't have to allow this embarrassing spectacle to continue indefinitely if we do the cruel jokes on us and that's the angle
