REP. NANCY MACE (R-SC): And it sounds like Joe Biden, just today, just in time for an election year, has decided that defunding the police is a bad idea in an election year. And not only that, but he gave a speech right in the middle of his own son's testimony and deposition today to distract from our investigation into Joe Biden, his family, and all of their corruption.
SANDRA SMITH (HOST): You know, I'm just looking at the list of participants in that room and the cities from which they come: Philadelphia, Buffalo, Miami, Milwaukee, Chicago. I mean, Congresswoman, I don't know who he thought his audience was by standing up and touting -- he said, "Murders, rapes, aggravated assaults, robberies all dropped sharply," without context or time frame. That's a brutal message to people when they're saying pretty loudly that they don't like the crime that is on the rise in their cities.
