Fox’s Katie Pavlich: Obama Admin Has ‘Anti-Police’ Track Record

Fox News contributor Katie Pavlich made some damning statements about President Barack Obama’s “track record” when it comes to police in America. When Pavlich noted that Obama has not “condemned” the “incendiary” rhetoric of Reverend Al Sharpton in relation to the murder to two NYPD officers last week, her guest Brian Benjamin pointed out that Sharpton has, in fact, repeatedly denounced violence against police as counter-productive to his “pursuit of justice.”

After dismissing Sharpton’s actual comments, Pavlich said, “I would argue that the Obama Administration has a track record of being anti-police.” Without offering specifics, the guest-host vaguely referenced her own TownHall.com report about Obama’s failed nomination of former NAACP Legal Defense Official Debo P. Adegbile, “a man who advocated for one of America’s most infamous cop killers,” to head the Department of Justice Civil Rights Division and stated that both Obama and Attorney General Eric Holder’s track record with police are “not good.”

“This administration certainly backs up what Al Sharpton thinks,” she concluded, drawing a hearty laugh from Benjamin.
