austin is hurting. we have staff that answer 911 calls that we had in 1995, when i was a five-year officer and we had 500,000 people in the city. that is where we are right now and we can't sustain that. the crime rate is going up, violent crime is going up, no traffic enforcement in austin right now. it is not sustainable, something has to be done. >> ashley: 911 response times have increased from seven minutes in 2018 to 10 minutes in 2022. dhs will try to help with that, do you think they can get this under control? >> yeah, i think so, the dps will do what it needs to bring troopers to austin. dps serves 254 counties, so that is 254 bodies. austin other than border has highest number of troopers in it because it is the state capital. i have every confidence that dps will bring enough troopers in to help with the issue. they will be on the high-speed roadways taking crash reports and traffic enforcement and backing up officers when they need them. >> ashley: austin crime stats, arson up, murder up, b

terry, how did you judge that level of commitment from austin and from milly they both austin and milly are military guys. pretty resolute. it would be hard to to read any disappointment because they're simply matter of fact guys. but i mean, if you're in a room with them, if you're these other defense ministers, you're going to step right up. so i think that they truly are encouraged by the, the ongoing support from other countries. and this is something that we hear constantly here in brussels. both on the european union side and here on the nato side, you don't see countries backing away from their commitment to ukraine. whether that's in training, which we heard a lot.
