Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass recently appeared on CNN to complain about Trump using the military to curb crime in Washington, DC. During the course of her comments, she claimed that crime in her city is down, which is hilarious. Every other week we hear about a celebrity’s home being robbed, not to mention the rioting that happened when ICE conducted raids in the city.

Bass says that you can’t use the military based on people’s feelings. That’s rich coming from a member of the party of feelings.

BASS:… you don’t deploy the armed forces because of people’s feelings. That is just inappropriate. If the statistics say that crime is down, then why would you do that because people feel afraid? Now, I deal with that all the time and I try to address people’s feelings. I don’t think you just shove statistics in folks, but you do do other things to make them feel safe. You don’t use the military to help people feel better.”

Here’s the video:

Actress and independent filmmaker Justine Bateman, who lives in Los Angeles, called out Bass for this on Twitter/X, saying:

@MayorOfLA, crime in LA is not down. Almost everyone I know has had their houses broken into in the last 2 years. The police tell us there aren’t enough @LAPD officers to attend to calls that aren’t life- threatening.

You do not have control of this town.

We wish the time you spend on TV, defending people who are here illegally, was instead spent working for this town and its citizens.

Properly fund the LAPD, properly fund the @LAFD, and allow those who understand how to rebuild the Palisades and Altadena the authority they need to get it done.

Do the basics of your job, or leave the office.

Have you noticed that Bass almost never seems to talk about the rebuilding efforts in Los Angeles? Shouldn’t that be her number one priority right now?
