Ep 520 | The Raw Truth about Homelessness, Crime, Drugs, and the War on Cops: Today we are joined by Heather Mac Donald, senior fellow at the Manhattan Institute, the most important voice in this country for law enforcement and the rule of law. She is brilliant on the issues of homelessness and criminal justice and willing to lay bare the truth about what is causing the drug and homelessness problems — without any veneer of political correctness. Heather's firsthand reporting in San Francisco proved that the homelessness problem is due to the breakdown of enforcing laws and the violation of social norms. Worse, liberal governments are actually incentivizing and encouraging this behavior. So much of the homeless problem is a drug problem, and so much of the drug problem, particularly in San Francisco, is because of criminal alien trafficking networks that are protected by sanctuary policies, as well as the pro-drug laws and culture induced by the politicians and media.
