Krasner Comparing ICE to Nazis ‘Abhorrent’, Doesn’t Help Lower Temperature

During Thursday’s broadcast of Fox News Channel’s “Special Report,” Pennsylvania Gov. Josh Shapiro (D) said a statement by Philadelphia District Attorney Larry Krasner (D) comparing ICE to Nazis is “unacceptable, heinous and wrong, period, hard stop, end of sentence.” And “what we’re trying to do in Pennsylvania is lower the temperature, and talk like that doesn’t help. »

After playing Krasner’s video, host Bret Baier asked, “What do you think about this?”

Shapiro responded: “This kind of rhetoric is unacceptable, it’s abhorrent, and it’s wrong, period, hard stop, end of sentence. I think what we need – and I’ve called for this in Minnesota, and I’ve practiced this in Pennsylvania – is that we need to lower the rhetoric, lower the temperature and create calm in the community. I believe the president’s policies have brought chaos to the streets of Minnesota. I’ve been very outspoken about that. You You may not agree with that statement, but I think it’s true. What we’re trying to do in Pennsylvania is lower the temperature, and rhetoric like that isn’t helpful.
