Fox News Talk’s Guy Benson reacted to President Joe Biden’s controversial comments about law enforcement that came hours after two FBI agents were shot and killed serving a search warrant at the home of a suspected child predator.
“But they put their lives on the line, and it’s a hell of a price to pay,” Biden said. “Every single day, every single one of these folks get up and they – by and large, the vast, the vast majority of these men and women are decent, honorable people who put themselves on the line, and we owe them.”
Benson said politics should be set aside when it comes to horrible tragedies, especially involving law enforcement.
“I feel like when some of our men and women in uniform at this elite level of the FBI are murdered in cold blood, while carrying out their duties, we can hopefully put politics aside for a few hours,” Benson said.
White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki tried to clarify during a meeting with reporters on Wednesday.
“Because I think he believes the men and women who have been serving our country in a variety of capacities have been criticized. Some of them have been threatened. The roles they have been playing have been questioned over the last several years and he wanted to reiterate his support for the important work that they do,” Psaki said.
