”Jim Jordan Vows to Defund the Police Over Donald Trump Indictment”

“We control the power of the purse, and we're going to have to look at the appropriation process and limit funds going to some of these agencies, particularly the ones who are engaged in the most egregious behavior," Jordan said in an interview with Fox News's Maria Bartiromo on Sunday Morning Futures”

“So, the DOJ, Department of Justice, and the FBI?" said Bartiromo, seeking clarity.”

"Yes," responded Jordan”

“Last month, Georgia Republican Marjorie Taylor Greene, another loyal supporter of the former president, called for "defunding the FBI, the DOJ”

Wait a minute, I thought MAGA opposed defunding the police, even erroneously attacking Democrats for supposedly defunding police, and now they want to get rid of the FBI and Justice Department?

Is there a bigger assemblage of hypocrites and clowns anywhere comparable to the Trump ass kissers in Washington?

On target! :clink:
 
Honest to goodness you're an idiot of Brandon proportions.

"Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.) said New York City’s proposed $1 billion cut from the police department budget tiptoes around demands from activists who are asking for a reduced police presence."

Though the plan proposed by New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio (D) cuts one-sixth of the New York Police Department (NYPD) budget, activists note that much of it would be transferred to other city departments, including the Department of Education, where it could pay for police in schools. Activists have advocated for removing officers from schools altogether.

Defunding police means defunding police,” the congresswoman said in a statement. “It does not mean budget tricks or funny math. It does not mean moving school police officers from the NYPD budget to the Department of Education’s budget so the exact same police remain in schools.”"

A little clarification on the usual Murdoch owned rag's slant:


Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez's full response to the question, "What does an America with defunded police look like to you?" below:
The good news is that it actually doesn't take a ton of imagination.


It looks like a suburb. Affluent white communities already live in a world where the choose to fund youth, health, housing etc more than they fund police. These communities have lower crime rates not because they have more police, but bc they have more resources to support healthy society in a way that reduces crime.

When a teenager or preteen does something harmful in a suburb (I say teen bc this is often where lifelong carceral cycles begin for Black and Brown communities), White communities bend over backwards to find alternatives to incarceration for their loved ones to "protect their future," like community service or rehab or restorative measures. Why don't we treat Black and Brown people the same way? Why doesn't the criminal system care about Black teens' futures the way they care for White teens' futures? Why doesn't the news use Black people's graduation or family photos in stories the way they do when they cover White people (eg Brock Turner) who commit harmful crimes? Affluent White suburbs also design their own lives so that they walk through the world without having much interruption or interaction with police at all aside from community events and speeding tickets (and many of these communities try to reduce those, too!)

Just starting THERE would be a dramatically and radically different world than what we are experiencing now.

Personally I always thought "defund the police" was an ill thought out mantra to hang a movement's hat on. "De-militarize the police" is more accurate and fact related. But the former is more sensational and inflammatory....getting that result hasn't helped the movement any...in fact if gets plenty of ammo for its detractors.
 
The Dems were guilty of a bad label. They were not trying to defund the police. They wanted to have some professionals in other fields like psychology to work through some situations. A lot of situations can be resolved by means other than power and violence. They were not defunding anyone, but trying to use some more humane methods.
The reds are saying defunding and destroying police agencies that they cannot control. is a good plan. They are actually for defunding.

The DOJ/FBI are NOT "the police"; they are the DNC Gestapo/KGB...

Because the FBI and DOJ have now been weaponized by the democrats and use them as political weapons
 
you got your ideas about being a free citizen from the brady project, didn't you?
Dear DumberthanMost, you are free to run from your own posts. The fact you won't leave your keyboard to defend your warped beliefs is all anyone needs to know about the level of your character.

.......my new unit has been together a while...we'd know if there was a traitorous government fuckstick among us....he'd have been disappeared already

Your comment about murdering Americans:
All part of the checks and balances. Being in control of the Executive branch has it's powers and limitations just like the Legislative branch.

Even though the Republicans have the Senate, it's a numbers game. Look at the numbers for Obama jamming through Obama care and look at current Republican numbers.

This is precisely why I support State's Rights but less and less Republicans truly do - They are mainly looking at the Senate and House numbers, not what is best for the States in the long run.
this is precisely why I don't have a huge problem with collateral damage....
