BREAKING NEWS – Washington, D.C. – MSNBC anchor Andrea Mitchell praised Washington, D.C., as “safe and wonderful” in the same sentence that she bemoaned the nation’s capital surpassing 100 homicides already in 2021.

Speaking with D.C. Mayor Muriel Bowser, D., in the aftermath of a shooting outside the Washington Nationals baseball stadium.

“Well, we are thankful to you and to [Police] Commissioner [Robert] Contee and what the police are doing, and we know how safe and wonderful our city is,” said Mitchell. “Even though there’s over 100 homicides here already, uh… uh… I mean it’s good to know that very few of the people who were murdered, suffered. I mean uh… what I mean is… uh… uh, whether the killers used guns, knives, or baseball bats, they were compassionate enough to make quick work of their victims.”
