that's not the case with this l.a. district attorney, reason being is that he is putting ideology, the ideology of economic justice, social justice over public safety. he is funded by george soros, pushing progressive policies that even you had judges rule against him on ending the sentence enhancement which they view as unlawful and so what we are finding right now is that l.a. are the ones who are going to have a negative impact having him in power. homicide rates increased to about 108%, that number up here in 2021, compare that to 2019. so, harris, i've got to tell you, if we go down this pathway of having these district attorneys who are weak on crime, it would negatively impact our community, their community, particularly the minority communities who suffer with these higher crime rates. >> harris: so kevin, where is your party going right now? where are democrats who are far left and this progress of doing things like this district attorney in terms of policy, where they want to take the rest of the people? >> h
