    Senate impeachment trial manager Rep. Adam Schiff, D-Calif., is "asleep at
    the wheel" when it comes to his own district and is ignoring issues that matter, like the state's homeless crisis, Dr. Drew. Pinsky said Thursday.

    Appearing on "Fox & Friends" with hosts Steve Doocy, Ainsley Earhardt and
    Brian Kilmeade, Pinsky said he started thinking that maybe he should run against Schiff because, every day he doesn't do something, three more
    homeless people die in the county of Los Angeles.

    While Pinsky said he is "categorically not running" for Schiff's seat, he couldn't ignore the crisis unfolding in front of him.

    "My God, if coronavirus were killing three people a day in our country, do
    you not think people would be in absolute outrage and panic?" he asked.
    "But, for some reason, this mental health crisis that is homelessness –
    because people have mental illness and are living on our streets – somehow
    we step over them and they die right in front of us."

    "For God's sake, we've absorbed 1.5 million undocumented workers in
    California. None of them are on the street," Pinsky remarked.

    According to the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD), there
    was a 16.4 percent increase in California's homeless population from 2018
    to 2019 and in January of 2019 53 percent of all recorded unsheltered in
    the U.S. were living in the Golden State.

    Pinsky said Americans have abandoned the mentally ill.

    "These are my patients dying on the street," he told the "Friends" hosts.
    "I know the population. I have served them for 30 years."

    Pinsky has a five-part plan to help his patients. He has brought forth a
    bill called SB-640 which was introduced in California state senate
    committees.

    "It would expand the definition of the gravely disabled," he explained.
    "So, immediately, family with resources and a bed to put their loved one
    in could go get them, bring them off the street, and treat them with a
    change in the definition."

    "We are living under the shadow of the excesses of psychiatry from the
    1950s," he stated. "We need to create modern laws for our current state of brain science."

    Donald J. Trump, 304 electoral votes to 227, defeated compulsive liar in
    denial Hillary Rodham Clinton on December 19th, 2016. The clown car
    parade of the democrat party ran out of gas and got run over by a Trump
    truck.

    Congratulations President Trump. Thank you for cleaning up the disaster
    of the Obama presidency.

    Under Barack Obama's leadership, the United States of America became the
    The World According To Garp. Obama sold out heterosexuals for Hollywood
    queer liberal democrat donors.

    President Trump has boosted the economy, reduced illegal immigration,
    appointed dozens of judges and created jobs.

    Sore loser and NAMBLA supporter Nancy Pelosi just pulled the "Obamacare switcheroo" on "trumped up" impeachment charges.
