The Push Back on Progressive DAs
Over the past two election cycles rich white liberals, such as George Soros, have pumped millions into passing ballot measures, and electing political candidates, including district attorneys that will reduce sentences for criminals, restrict prosecutions and essentially empty out jails and prisons based upon the myth of over-incarceration. The expressed motive behind this fiction is that consistently enforced laws against crime and increased sentences for repeat offenders is racist. The proof: blacks and Hispanics, which commit crime at higher levels that other races, are more frequently arrested, prosecuted and incarcerated than other races. Their narrative leaves out the which commit crime at higher levels part, and so does most of the national media. But to sell a lie over a long period of time, one must prevent the majority from finding out the truth. Today’s Wall Street Journal provides a case in point. The powerful Democratic City Committee in Philadelphia has voted not to endorse progressive District Attorney Larry Krasner’s reelection this year.
