Schmitt Warns France Riots Preview Democrats' Agenda, Citing 7,000 Missouri Jobs

1 articles · Updated · Fox News · Oct 21

Summary

  • Eric Schmitt said riots, fires and looting in France show what “DSA” Democrats want for the US, arguing control of the House could decide the fate of Trump’s immigration and public-safety agenda.
  • French unrest followed protests over rising living costs and strained public services, giving Schmitt a backdrop for accusing Democrats of obstructing immigration, permitting reform and regulation changes.
  • In Missouri, Schmitt pointed to Boeing’s F-47 and F/A-XX wins as proof Republicans must pair warnings with results, saying the programs would create 7,000 direct jobs in St. Louis.
  • On crime, he cited Operation Show Me Justice, an ATF-led surge that ended with 435 arrests, 166 firearms seized, 81 kilograms of drugs confiscated and more than $1.25 million recovered.
  • Schmitt also pushed his Modern Skies Act for St. Louis airport upgrades, framing jobs, safety and infrastructure as the Republican case as the House remains up for grabs.
