1:03Now PlayingThe real issue here is simple: Elected Officials should not promise endless free programs, endless services, and endless political giveaways just to get into office if the money is not really there. At some point, every city has to face reality. Budgets are finite. Taxpayers are finite. And eventually the bill comes due - even for Democratic Socialists. Should the rest of New York State have to bail out New York City or is this what happens when politicians continue to promise more than reality can support? Watch the full video and weigh in.
About the Host: Chris Piehota is a former FBI Supervisory Special Agent and trusted national security expert who provides rare insider insight into FBI matters, law enforcement and intelligence operations, and America’s evolving security challenges. With decades of experience in counterterrorism, law enforcement leadership, and crisis response, he offers clear, candid perspectives on government and the future of US national security. Chris, a US Air Force veteran, is the author of "Wanted: The FBI I Once Knew", a personal view of what the FBI should be for the American people. Chris currently serves as a subject matter expert/consultant regarding complex security practices, risk mitigation, and leadership concepts.
Channel Approach: This channel fights social and institutional decay. Are you tired of "overly-scripted", highly "curated", and "conflict-based" content that has become the norm? Are you exhausted with content that looks like contrived takeoffs of the failed mainstream media? I am. So, I hope you will forgive me for promoting a less generic, over-produced approach where ideas can be shared in a more informal fashion about what is going on for the ordinary people of the world. For the sake of real talk, you will see minor recording mistakes and flubs in this content. Please like, share, and subscribe to keep the conversation moving forward.
