You may have been fooled by this;

Cori Bush- US Congresswoman - Missouri "Defunding the police isn't radical, it's real,"
Ilhan Omar- US Congresswoman, MN- The "defund the police" movement, is one of reimagining the current police system to build an entity that does not violate us, while relocating funds to invest in community services. Let’s be clear, the people who now oppose this, have always opposed calls for systematic change"
Jamall Bowman- US Congressman, NY "Too many police in our country are more concerned with protecting white supremacy than serving the communities that pay their salaries"
That took about a 2 minute google search. Are these members of the Democratic party not sane?
It's comical to hear people trying walk back a narrative that they thought was soooo progressive and cool when the anti-police mob was at its height of popularity. Now that we're in an election cycle Dems are running as fast as they can. "We're the party of law and order!!" Let's just act like defund the police, autonomous zones, BLM riots, blatant disregarding our immigration laws, and rampant crime in our largest dem-run cities never happened. Nothing to see here..move along.
People who want to allocate some part of the public safety budget of cities for programs that help people, aren't necessarily "defunding" the police.
They are seeking alternative approaches to reducing crime and improving public safety, often by adding dollars to the public safety budget.
Do you have some outliers? Sure, just look at wacky MTG. She doesn't represent the Republican party's approach to law and order with her Defund the FBI nonsense. There are certainly Dem outliers also.
But let's go scream all Dems want to defund the police. It's a good narrative, and keeps the base riled up.
How many soft-on-crime, Soros-backed DAs are there in the country?
How many Democrat-run cities have soft-on-crime policies that are allowing crime to run rampant in their cities?
Democrats own this - you are part of the problem! People like Eliza Fletcher are dead because of you, Paul.
Republicans pounce, eh Paul?
One political party has owned majority of urban cities for 60 years and they can't fix much. Crap. More crap. Crime. more crime.
It's a problem everywhere:
