New CNN Expert Blames Liberal Politicians for’Significant Surge in Crime'

Truth bombs exploded Wednesday on the set of CNN’s “New Day,” as former Capitol Hill police officer and new CNN Law Enforcement Analyst Michael Fanone broke from the network’s typical narrative and exposed the real reasons behind the recent surge in crime across America.Show more

Fanone’s comments came in response to a report from correspondent Brynn Gingras stating that homicides in the U.S. increased 29% in 2020, and an additional 7% in 2021. Gingras noted three high-profile murders that have recently gripped the nation: the stabbing of a UCLA student in Los Angeles, a bus stop attack on a nurse in Los Angeles, and the pushing of a woman in front of a subway train in New York.

None of the brutal attacks involved guns, meaning they were not fodder for CNN’s usual assaults on the Second Amendment, leaving the network wide open for a different point of view.

“Clearly there has been a significant increase in crime,” Fanone stated. “I mean, as a police officer, I witnessed it, not just in this past year [or] the year before, but in the last four or five years leading up to 2022. We’ve seen, like, a staggering increase in both property and violent crimes.”
