St. Paul Police Federation President, Mark Ross, emphasizes the importance of communication with city council members regarding law enforcement decisions. Despite reaching out, the Federation received no calls or texts before new face covering ordinances impacting the rank-and-file were passed. #PoliceChief #CityCouncil #LawEnforcement #CommunitySafety #OpenCommunication #BlueSaintsPodcast

Proud to see our brothers at @SPPDFederation collaborating with Tom Homan on public safety priorities. Strong partnerships like this keep our communities secure! What's your take on bolstering local-federal ties? #LawEnforcement #PublicSafety 🇺🇸
“Tom Homan’s focus and dedication to public safety is impressive. Our meeting was immensely effective and we look forward to a more productive path moving forward.”

"Today’s verdict was a miscarriage of justice. We vigorously maintain Sergeant Duran’s innocence. The verdict rendered by Judge Mitchell is clearly against the weight of the credible evidence. Verdicts such as this send a terrible message to hard-working cops: should you use force to defend yourself, your fellow police officers or the citizens of the City, no matter how justified your actions, you risk criminal charges and conviction.”

"Toothless virtue signaling rhetoric like this has already cost two people their lives. The concept of pitting two armed law enforcement agencies against each other is ludicrous, and will not happen. I will not allow SPOG members to be used as political pawns."

SPOG President, Mike Solan: "The recent naive, ignorant political decision to not arrest offenders for open drug use in the City of Seattle is horrifically dangerous and will create more death and societal decay. It embodies an enormous flaw in those in our community who think that meeting people where they are who are in the throes of addiction, is the correct path to lift them up. This is wrong and is commonly referred to as “Suicidal Empathy.” Most cops know that the LEAD program supports this ideology and they don’t want to refer cases. It is a waste of time. We’ve all seen how our streets can be filled with death, decay, blight and crime when ideology like this infects our city. Now with this resurrected insane direction, death, destruction and more human suffering will be supercharged".

Incredible story out of Washington DC. Public safety over politics, everyday, in every way.
🚨 BREAKING: A JAW-DROPPING report from the House just confirmed the left-wing D.C. police chief FALSIFIED crime statistics, "cooking the books" to make the city seem MUCH safer than it was.
- Chief Smith PUNISHED and RETLIATED if they tried to report rising crime data, BERATING them
- Chief Pam Smith PRESSURED commanders to lower crime stats "by any means necessary"
- Chief Smith pushed for lesser-pursued charges EVEN for serious crimes
- Required certain crimes to be reviewed by her office
WOW.

"The vote count for Seattle’s next mayor took so long that I almost forgot we had an election. And much like public safety in Seattle, our election process needs to be reformed. SPOG members also want to thank Mayor Harrell for his efforts to build back SPD. We look forward to continuing his legacy with Mayor-Elect Wilson.”
