In Mayor Bloomberg’s debut appearance on the Democratic Presidential Debate Stage, his stop and frisk policy was a major issue. Speaking out for the first time since the debate, the Federal Judge who actually ruled on the policy, and spent ten years overseeing litigation about it, says flatly that both Bloomberg and Biden got their facts wrong during the debate. Scheindlin fact checks Bloomberg’s claim that he personally scaled back the policy, noting he expanded it after Mayor Giuliani and then was forced to change gears because of her “court rulings.” As for Biden, Scheindlin said Biden was factually wrong to take credit for the shift – he said at the debate that the Obama-Biden administration caused the policy change with a monitor – noting that was “totally wrong,” and in fact, her federal court “ruling” is what “appointed the monitor” to oversee the rollback of the policy. The judge made the newsworthy comments in an exclusive interview with MSNBC’s Ari Melber. Aired on 02/20/20.

'Totally Wrong': Fed. Judge Who Ruled On 'Stop And Frisk' Fact-Checks Bloomberg And Biden At Debate
Hi Ari.👋☺.
Exceptional reporting, Ari.👍☺👏👏👏👏.
Keep on digging, Ari.👍.
Hes pretty good!!!
Bloomberg was wearing his maids bikini under his suit
TONY ewwwww now I can’t get that picture out of my head!
But I bet you’re right!
Absolutely!!! Racial profiling was a failed policy, and it’s still happening all over everywhere. Police are being called on black folk for no apparent reason. It’s called racial profiling. Black folk are stopped for being black.
Its domestic terrorist by racketeering government
God bless U judge
A friend of mine was stopped and frisked and found to have a small quantity of marijuana on him. He was sentenced to 4 1/2 years and got more time than that albino freak Roger Stone.
Gov Newsom, D-CA just released and cleared over hundred thousand marijuana convictions 😘 Hopefully as CA goes other governor’s will DO the same!
by the judge who just degraded Michael Bloomberg?
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA COMING FROM THE NEWS THAT REPEATED FOR MONTHS… “HILLARY WILL WIN 92% HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA HA DESPERATE IDIOTS, YOUR VOTERS ARE WAKING UP AND WALKING AWAY BY THE THOUSANDS EVERY DAY. HAVE A GREAT NOVEMBER 3, 2020. LIBERAL TEARS AGAIN!!! My question is: why do all of the #Democrat controlled cities have the highest taxes, the most expensive housing, highest cost of living in general & the most social welfare programs, most gun control laws yet they have the most murders, homelessness, crime & horrible poverty????
Bob Cook go back to Fox, I’m sure there is more propaganda hypnosis that you haven’t seen yet
@The Asari Queen WIDDLE FEELERS ARE HURTED. OHHHH POOR BABY
It was terrorism. Practice for the future, when they terrorize you.
Stephen Nee Exactly. Creating a nation of Slaves.
Judge Shedland is an exceptional federal judge. Intelligent, articulate, Constitutional and factual. And a woman. Trump undoubtably hates her.
Is there anyone connected to trump, who isn’t a criminal, liar, in jail, or under investigation?
gratefuljr ……you are who your friends are….
@Dale Hartley He must be lonely . . . since he hates vegetables too . . .
@Dale Hartley I was just making a joke, he’ll probably be a cannibalistic serial killing psychopath.
No, doubt it. IMPOTUS has twisted administration
I thought that was a requirement for being near Trump.
That judge, she’s the schnizzle 👍
Big gulp billionaire lied
FOR RIZZLE MY NIZZLE!!✊😎💯💪🗽🌉🌉🗽✌😂😂😂
and she is related to Judge Judy Scheindlin, who earns about 55 million a year, yes she is a Schnitzel, a German Jew, nothing wrong with that..
Biden is full of it!
Biden woke up after the debate
Nice scoop for Ari–and instructive.
Shira Scheindlin was my landlord 40 years ago! She was a Brooklyn district court Judge at that time. I’m happy for who she became. Speaking truth to power!
Impeached for Life ✅
why isn’t a woman like that President? Succinct clear and uncompromising
Because a woman (or a man for that matter) who is succinct, clear, and uncompromising will never be a successful politician.
400 years of hate, that’s a long time!
Gen.15:12-14
I’M GLAD THAT ARI MELBER HAD HER ON THE SHOW SO THAT PEOPLE’S OUTSIDE OF NEWSPAPERS YORK CITY WILL 👀 SEE & 👂 HEAR HOW MIKE AND REALLY IS & THAT IS NOT A FRIEND OF THE AFRICAN-AMERICAN OR LATIN-AMERICAN COMMUNITY & HE DOESN’T NEED TO BE FAKIN’ IT ‘TIL HE’S MAKES IT INTO THE WHITE HOUSE & REPRESENTING THE UNITED STATES AT ALL!!🗽🌉🌉🗽💯💪✊😎✌😂😂😂
I love this woman. Run for congress!!!
retirement check of a judge, why bother with that aggravation for that low pay?
@MrBonners lol true. But congress needs some intelligent straight-shooters who aren’t in it for f@$#ing money
@W A did her time as a fed judge, not her problem.
Any 5th grader would know that the mere idea of “Stop and Frisk” is a violation of the Constitution. These men KNEW it was Unconstitutional yet, did it anyway. All of these men swore an oath to protect and defend the Constitution. How can we believe your oath when you’ve already been shown to disregard it when it’s convenient.
Thank you. Bring Judge Scheindlin on many more times Ari. She was so factual and succinct. We need more like her so moneymedia and doubletalking politicians can’t cover up or ignore real history for their own benefit.
That judge is one impressive lady. Have her on more often.
Wait, hire her to regularly share her opinions and observations.
