No matter what Ilhan Omar, Squad members, and Progressives tell you, the fact is they are moving to DEFUND THE POLICE.

In #Minneapolis, they are doing so on the ballot.

They don’t have a plan for the day after. They are trying to obscure this reality with fluffy language.

Here’s a look at the language to defund the police, take away the mayor’s role in public safety, and give new sweeping powers to the #Minneapolis City Council — all of whom are on record in support of defunding the police.

If you ask me, voters should clearly understand if the police department will be shuttered this December.

Any plan to form a public health conscious public safety force (whatever that means) would need funding.

There is no mechanism to fund their fantasy. It is a train wreck.

This is what failed leadership looks like. On the defund the police ballot initiative (called “Yes 4 Minneapolis”) that guts the mayor’s power, current Mayor Jacob Frey (D) is signing off on it, saying the following 👇🏼

Just a reminder, a few days ago I went past the now infamous #Minneapolis 3rd Precinct police station.

Note: The decision to abandon it to what CNN called, "mostly peaceful protestors," was made by Mayor Jacob Frey.

Here's how it looks one year later.

Across the street, the #BLM flag flies in the wind, where the American flag should be.

#Minnesota and #Minneapolis doesn't need more "mostly peaceful" fire and smoke damage from dangerous progressive policies. #Yes4Minneapolis makes scenes like this more likely in the future.

When there's a fire in your home or place of business, you need these guys, not some high school debate team in the #Minneapolis City Council to discuss what psychologist to send your way.

All of this used to be obvious; it's unreal that it is no longer.

We need new leadership.

You may think, “we’ll that’s just #Minneapolis. That would never happen here.” Think again.

Progressives around the country are lined up behind these kind of ruinous policies.

Recall our current VP tweeting this as the 3rd Precinct burned.

You may ask, “how did that infantile progressive experiment work out?”

The answer is: Precisely as they intended.

Meet George Howard, recently freed from #Minneapolis jail by the same fund Kamala Harris promoted lasted year.

If people in #Minneapolis are tired of being used by their own politicians & treated like a crash test dummy for horrifically bad progressive policies on a national level VOTE FOR NEW LEADERSHIP
