Hillary Clinton blasts Obama's proposed $90M cut to anti-terror funds for New York in sitdown with Daily News
The Democratic presidential front-runner, during a wide-ranging sitdown with the Daily News editorial board, railed against a $90-million funding cut to federal anti-terror funding for New York.
Her stance aligns her with city leaders, including Police Commissioner Bill Bratton, against a controversial proposal by President Obama that would adversely affect the ability of the city — the nation’s top terror target since 9/11 — to protect itself.
“We need it, we need it! I want it!” Clinton shouted during a Saturday sitdown with reporters and editors from The News, referring to federal homeland security funding for New York. “I don’t agree with the Obama administration on that.”
She vowed to fight for the loot.
“I have a great confidence in and commitment to making sure that New York has all the homeland security funding that it needs from the federal government and I believe that its request is reasonable and I would very much want to see the Obama administration produce that $90 million it has otherwise decided to withhold,” she said.
The stinging rebuke of her former boss comes just months after the White House released a 2017 budget that called for slashing funding for the Urban Area Security Initiative (UASI) — which pays for anti-terror ventures in large U.S. cities like New York — from $600 million to $330 million.
But throughout it all, she appeared to take multiple veiled shots at Obama, proposing ways — especially when it came to stimulating the U.S. economy — she felt she could do better.
Remember in the debates when she said this:
"I don’t think he gets the credit he deserves for being a president who dug us out of that ditch, put us on firm ground, and sent us into the future. And it is the kind of criticism that we’ve heard from Sen. Sanders about our president that I expect from Republicans. I do not expect them from someone running for the Democratic nomination to succeed president Obama."

Clinton Supporters how do you reconcile this? And do not come at me with just "That's politics". It is scummy, and makes her look disingenuous and with a lack of integrity and ethics.
