Brazen Lies and Hypocrisy on Defunding Police

Defunding, demonization, and general hamstringing of local police by Democrat authorities in the name of their malevolent race-based ideology inevitably propelled crime through the stratosphere:

The plan to blame the crime on guns, and then capitalize on it to disarm law-abiding citizens who need to defend themselves now more than ever, appeals only to criminals and lunatics — i.e., the Democrat base. Facing the growing wrath of voters, Democrats now claim that it is Republicans who want to defund police.

Seriously, the White House is actually floating that, despite the many Democrat-run cities that deliberately crippled the police with defunding in obeisance to Black Lives Matter rioters:

That same day, Oakland — birthplace of the Black Panther Party, forerunner of BLM — cut $18.5 million from its police budget in the midst of a crime wave. If there are any Republicans in Oakland, they have been laying low for decades.

On the opposite coast, leftist congresscritter Jamaal Bowman (D-NY) has been a particularly noisy advocate of defunding police:

“A system this cruel and inhumane can’t be reformed. Defund the police, and defund the system that’s terrorizing our communities,” he said in December 2020. “We screamed defund the police so we could reallocate those resources toward something that focuses on true public health and public safety,” Bowman added in an April tweet. …

“Too many police in our country are more concerned with protecting white supremacy than serving the communities that pay their salaries,” Bowman thundered in a May 2021 tweet.

Yet we also read this:

“About a week after the Jan. 6th incident at the Capitol, we received a request from the Congressman’s office for increased police presence at his residence,” Yonkers Police Department Detective Lt. Dean Politopoulos told The Post.

Bowman wants to deprive those who live in violent neighborhoods of police protection. But when hysterical bedwetters amid our Democrat overlords briefly thought that the peasants had finally had enough and might show up with torches and pitchforks, he quickly scurried to the cops to keep himself safe.

Only those devoid of shame can compete with Democrats for brazen lies and hypocrisy.
