JESSE WATTERS (HOST): Jordan Neely, the violent homeless guy with 40 arrests who died in a chokehold, would be alive today if a white liberal judge and a white liberal prosecutor hadn't cooked up a deal that sent him to therapy instead of prison. White liberals unleashed a violent, schizophrenic drug addict on the people, and then when he died they blamed racism.
We feel horrible that Neely is dead. What a tragedy. He never should have died like that. But the media didn't tell you the truth about his death, about who he is. The media told you a half-truth so you'd riot, defund the police and scream racism.
...
Now why are AOC's protesters mad at cops when she didn't even want cops to be in the subway? If a cop had been on the subway, Neely wouldn't be dead. But AOC's protesters are protesting cops anyway. Now it doesn't make sense because it's not supposed to. They just need conflict.
