The debate happening in New York state over Gov. Kathy Hochul's proposals to show how tough Democrats are on crime mirrors the debate happening across the country and in Washington, D.C. On the radical left, the debate is over: no bail, light sentences for everything except violent offenses, and don't send too many black people to prison because slavery, or something.
The facts are that releasing people without bail isn't leading to more crime and more violent crime.
Democrats like Hochul might recognize that but are still running scared.
A record-setting spate of homicides in Albuquerque has ratcheted up pressure on New Mexico Gov. Michelle Lujan Grisham, including from some fellow Democrats.
The problem for these suddenly "Law and order" Democrats is that their past statements about "Bail reform" and "Unfair incarceration" can't be erased from the internet.
Democrat Jumaane Williams, New York City's public advocate who is also challenging Hochul in the governor's race, said the governor "Should show courage and leadership on this issue, or at the very least pick a side between fearmongering and facts."
It's unclear if Democrats controlling the statehouse will meet the governor somewhere in the middle as they continue negotiating, but the pressure has ratcheted up in recent days.
It's becoming increasingly difficult to discern fact from fiction, and unfortunately the media has a strong bias. They spin stories to make conservatives look bad and will go to great lengths to avoid reporting on the good that comes from conservative policies. There are a few shining lights in the media landscape-brave conservative outlets that report the truth and offer a different perspective. We must support conservative outlets like this one and ensure that our voices are heard.
