Hannity: Democrats will ignore crime uptick until it fits their ‘sick political agenda’ – Fox News

Sean Hannity opened his show Monday responding to the troubling crime surge gripping U.S. cities following a bloody weekend that left several dead.

"We have Pelosi.We have Schumer.We have Biden.125 years of swamp failure," he began. "They have done nothing to quellinner-city violent crimeanywhere in America, nothing tofix the broken dilapidateddisgusting and repulsiveeducational system.They have failed America'schildren.We have far left mayors.They have ruled these cities fordecades.They have completely failedtheir citizens," Hannity said.

Hannity blamed the crime uptick on failed Democratic leadership, who he said "ignore99.9 percent" of tragic deaths in their cities and focus only on crime victims if it fits their "sick political agenda."

"They only talk about it, cherry-pickit, if it fits their sickpolitical agenda.Hundreds are shot in Chicagoevery single week.Same with New York, now Seattleand Portland," he said. "Guess what?You think Joe Biden knows thesenames?Those are our fellow Americans.Do you think Mayor Lightfootknows those names?Only if it helps thempolitically do they payattention.

Hannity went on, "We see this every singleweekend.It's a massive scale.The president's right.It's a war zone.This is our American treasure,our children are being murdered.But the far left so-calledprotesters in Chicago, they aremore interested in toppling astatue of Christopher Columbus."

Hannity accused Democrats of prioritizing"ideology over law and order and security and safety. "

"Democrats," he concluded, "they have failedAmerica's cities.Decades of rule, decades offailure...and as a result, our fellowAmericans are suffering."
