Transcript
00:00Steve Miller please say a few words. Thank you sir. So just to first of all follow up on what the vice president said. No police officer working in the city can remember a time in their lives when there has been no murders. You can work at the police department for 20 years, 30 years, your whole life. We've checked the records. No one can even find a record of being murder free for as long as you're murder free under President Trump's leadership. Additionally, and the president spoke about this before, we've uncovered in the process of
00:29uncovering a massive scandal in Washington DC with the doctoring of crime stats. And the Department of Justice under the attorney general is leading the effort to uncover this. But when we ultimately share the results, it will, it will stun you. The extent to which even though DC had the worst crime in America honestly measured, it dramatically understated how bad it was. There's even accusations that murders and homicides were reported as accidents instead of murders. I mean, this is how severe the
00:59manipulation of the manipulation of the crime data has been in the city and it will all be uncovered and it will all be brought to light. You know, I've had a chance to spend some time as to everyone here with the police officers in the city. Members of the public are going up to them and thanking them just overflowing with gratitude because for the first time in their lives, they can use the parks, they can walk on the streets. You have people who can walk freely at night without having to worry about being robbed or mugged or wearing their watches again. They're wearing jewelry again. They're carrying purses again. People
01:29people who have changed their whole lives in the city for fear of being murdered, mugged and carjacked. It is a literal statement that President Trump has freed 700,000 people in this city who were living under the rule of criminals and thugs. And the last thing I'll say is that under the efforts of Terry to my left and many here, what they found also is that the street criminals here in Washington, D.C.
01:59National criminal cartels, the foreign terrorist organizations. So not only was the city being run by these criminal thugs, but they were working with some of the most dangerous terrorist organizations on the planet to traffic weapons and drugs into this city. And what we are covering every day is shocking to us. And we look forward to sharing all the results with you. But President Trump, your leadership has uncovered some of the great public safety scandals of our life. And now because of you, people are safe and free for the first time ever in this city. Thank you very much.
