In a stunning display of the profound disconnect that defines the modern Democratic Party, a speaker at the DNC’s summer meeting was caught on video advising party leaders to dismiss the violent crime terrorizing American cities. Insha Rahman, the vice president for the left-wing Vera Institute of Justice, explicitly told Democrats to ignore the crisis of carjackings and migrant crime, revealing a political strategy that is not only morally bankrupt but entirely out of step with the concerns of law-abiding citizens.
This incident is a perfect microcosm of why the liberal media’s narrative on crime is failing and why the American people continue to place their trust in the strong, law-and-order leadership of President Donald Trump.
While families worry about their safety and the security of their communities, a well-funded think tank executive stood before the Democratic National Committee and delivered a tone-deaf lecture on political messaging. Rahman framed President Trump’s justified crackdown on the out-of-control crime in Washington D.C. not as a necessary measure for public safety, but as a political trap. Her advice was clear: avoid the issue altogether.
She stated, “Don’t take the bait and talk about migrant crime or carjackings or the things that actually don’t matter to that many Americans.” This statement, delivered with a chilling casualness, demonstrates a worldview where the rampant carjackings plaguing the nation’s capital are merely an inconvenient talking point to be managed, rather than a violent scourge to be eradicated.
The liberal media, acting as the public relations arm for the Democratic Party, consistently downplays these crises, choosing to focus on abstract social issues rather than the immediate dangers facing everyday Americans. They parrot the same talking points as Rahman, dismissing concerns about crime as fearmongering while ignoring the victims of these brutal acts.
The transcript from the meeting reveals the full extent of this misguided strategy. Rahman elaborated, “Don’t take the bait because most Americans are more worried about how we are going to address mental health issues, the visible homelessness that we see on streets, and how do we deal with mental health and other issues that drive the sort of random incidents that scare all of us.” This is a classic tactic of the left: to deflect from a concrete problem by pivoting to a broader, more nebulous societal issue that absolves criminals of personal responsibility.

This stands in direct opposition to the agenda and rhetoric of President Donald Trump, who has consistently prioritized the safety and security of the American people above political correctness. Where the left sees a “bait” topic, President Trump sees a vital issue demanding immediate action. His commitment to supporting law enforcement, securing the border, and imposing tough penalties on criminals offers a clear and forceful rebuttal to the Democrats’ dismissive attitude.
The President understands that carjackings, home invasions, and migrant crime matter deeply to Americans because they strike at the heart of our right to live in peace and security. The Democratic Party, guided by the advice of out-of-touch elites and amplified by a complacent media, continues to show contempt for this fundamental right. The choice for Americans could not be clearer: between a party that dismisses their fears and a President who acts to protect them.
It is time our new DOJ starts locking up those evil monsters who keep whitewashing and encouraging all the evil acts of their demented followers! They CLAIM First Amendment rights, but that does not include inciting and encouraging violence!
Because conservatives play defense and Liberals play offense.
DNC the Crime Party
Where do these people come from? Where do the democrats find them! The worst of the worst!
Want to talk about mental health the democrats don’t have to go to far just take a look in the mirror. How about that being a starter point.
Hmmmm
Stereotype says, “What?”
One more delusional libertard!! She thinks crime doesn’t really matter to voters????
When you’re fat an ugly and stupid and a democrat you can walk around and nobody will mess with you because they the criminals not want your diseases. They don’t want anything to do with you. That’s why you think our streets are safe. Hang a stake around your neck and see what happens. aka stake aka camera or hand bag.
Dumbsh-t democrats
What has the democratic party, liberals, leftists, ever done for the country but promote abortion, which goes along with being behind lawlessness? They are worthless for America.
Unfortunately, elite left wingers who are posing as “leaders” in the Dumocrat party have not been affected by the criminal environment that is so profound in America’s blue cities. The liberals care not about the citizens and act clueless about their safety. These insaine, self serving, scum are evil at best. Those who support this out of touch propaganda and it’s “elite” are sadly either demonic or just plain stupid. Will the poisoned minds of the left ever be cured? Divine help, maybe is the only answer.
Spoken of by someone who undoubtedly has never been a victim of violent crime! So, these remarks can only be looked as a liberal who is trying her best to obfuscate the problems created by liberal policies. In this case it is crime tha tis being ignored. It really does not matter why it is being ignored. Could it be for votes, financial gain, or plain old fashioned power that is abused?
One insurance investigative body estimates 35,000 times a year a carjacking occurs in the United States. One report from the District of Columbia, the city’s police department recorded 958 carjackings last year but only made 173 arrests, according to the Metropolitan Police Department’s carjacking dashboard. Sixty-two percent of those suspects were under the age of 18. So the 35,000 from the insurance investigative body might be a little on the low side.
It is agreed that divine help is what we need. The President can be used of God to give that help.
Well Then. I guess she wouldn’t have problem if she or her ilk tried to steal my car, enter my home, attack my family, that I blow their frickn head off. Just sayn
More proof of the left trying to destroy America and turn it into a socialist/communist shithole. Between the left’s incompetency and their ideology of destruction of all that is American , there are still stupid voters that continue to vote for free stuff.
maybe it has become time to defend your self! they don’t like you and there not going to stop. this is part of what the 2nd amendment is for!
