And liberal cities need to clean house in their police forces

That works even in liberal cities. Just a good idea.

Vote against slush funds for the cops if you live in a liberal/left city also: in most jurisdictions the cops have a disdain for the city they are supposed to serve.

matthewdownhour.bsky.social•42 days ago

I’m not saying talk about defunding the police I am saying actually do it
