Democratic Socialist Pennsylvania Congressional Candidate Chris Rabb sat for a heated interview on Fox News this week, where he was asked to defend his policies but repeatedly dodged questions on radical stances like abolishing the Senate, defunding the police, and abolishing immigration laws.
Rabb, a 5-term Pennsylvania state representative, won his primary for US Congress in May. The Democratic Socialists of America (DSA) highlighted his win in a press release, writing, “There’s a new DSA member in Congress!”
“Now Congressman Rabb will continue the fight to abolish ICE, free Palestine, and win Medicare for All in the U.S. House of Representatives!”
Rabb, who is endorsed by Socialist Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) and other “Squad” members, has the same radical DSA policy agenda.
He joined Fox News’s Sean Hannity on Wednesday night to defend his platform.
Hilariously, the interview began with Rabb calling Sean Hannity “Scott.” Hannity responded, “My name is not Scott. My name is Sean, but that’s okay.”
Rabb went on to dodge questions about the Democratic Socialists of America’s insane policies, like abolishing the Senate.
“That’s not really what I ran on,” he said of the DSA’s plan for the Senate. “That’s the DSA national platform,” he added, but refused to say what he believes.
When asked if he wants to abolish borders and give amnesty for illegals, Rabb purported to not know what an illegal is and said, “I don’t accept the premise of that question.” He went on to say he “absolutely” wants to abolish Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) and “dismantle the immigrant concentration camps.”
On ending deportations, Rabb did not directly answer, saying, “We want to make sure that there’s an immigration system that is fair, just, and efficient, and we don’t have that system.”
He further said “absolutely” when asked if he wants to eliminate cash bail and establish a wealth tax.
On abolishing prisons, however, Rabb again avoided the question, calling the notion “interesting” before bizarrely claiming, “Long before there was any notion of policing, we had founders that did not even understand that term. Policing is something that has evolved over time.” He then claimed that “99% of what police do are not going after the bad guys.”
He then began arguing with Hannity over the definition of police, saying, “Let’s talk about this in the appropriate context” and suggesting that community safety can be ensured without police.
Finally, after arguing for two minutes about what the police are for, Rabb admitted exactly what he had been dancing around. “Listen, my people are from the South,” Rabb said. “We couldn’t trust the police because they were largely part of the Klan.”
