Michelle Wu Gets the ''Find Out'' Treatment From Pam Bondi Ahead of Oversight Committee Hearing — RedState
2025-03-05
[REDSTATE] As RedState reported, Boston Mayor Michelle Wu stooped to a new low during a press briefing in the aftermath of a Saturday incident at a Chick-fil-A restaurant where an off-duty police officer took down a knife-wielding man who allegedly tried to stab two people.

According to local news outlets, "the armed suspect, later identified as 32-year-old Lmark Jaramillo of Roslindale, allegedly chased two people into the busy fast food restaurant and was trying to stab them" when the off-duty policeman shot and killed him after first trying to reason with him.

"My condolences and all of our thoughts are with the family of the individual whose life has been lost, and I'm also thinking of all the people who were impacted here today in one of the busier parts of the city with this tragedy," a clearly distraught Wu told reporters on the scene without praising the heroic actions of the off-duty officer.

Other so-called Boston leaders including their police commissioner took a similar approach:

''This is a pretty tragic incident,'' Boston Police Commissioner Michael Cox added. ''We don't look for loss of life so our condolences go to the individual who was killed tonight.''

Suffolk County District Attorney Kevin Hayden also offered his ''thoughts and prayers'' to the family of the attacker.

When DOJ Attorney General Pam Bondi caught wind of their remarks, she took to the Twitter/X machine on Monday and wrote this:

This DOJ will NEVER apologize for taking down dangerous criminals and getting them off our streets.

Thank you to the brave law enforcement officer in Boston who stepped up to protect those in need.

Politicians who want to apologize to criminals should not be in office!

However, things got worse for Wu when she responded to all the criticism of what she said by doubling down while belatedly offering praise for law enforcement.

"It's unfortunate to politicize being at the scene of a tragic incident," Wu declared according to NBC Boston. "I expressed condolences because every loss of life is a horrible tragedy. I am also grateful every hour of every day for the work of our Boston police officers."

I'd ask her.
If a Knife welding Looney Tune got into your Mayor office, and started stabbing your staff, what would you expect your armed security to do?

If she says's anything other than shoot and kill the idiot.

Want bet she'll need new staff inside a week?

BTW: was "Lemark Jaramillo" a US Citizen or Biden/Democrat invited guest?
