MO Rep. Cori Bush is pushing hard to defund the police. Many have criticized her for holding this belief while hiring private security.

From Fox News. Rep. Cori Bush poured tens of thousands of dollars more into private security during the first quarter of 2022…

Bush’s newest security checks follow the $233,663 her committee spent on the services in 2021, FEC records show. She has now paid out $304,152 for security this election cycle.

As Bush’s campaign issued the most recent payments, she refused to rein in her calls to defund law enforcement, which Democrats fear will hurt the party in the 2022 elections….

Fox News Digital first reported on Bush’s security payments in July 2021, which prompted questions from CBS News about the cash and whether it was hypocritical to hire security while pushing to defund law enforcement.

“They would rather I die?” Bush asked. “You would rather me die? Is that what you want to see? You want to see me die? You know, because that could be the alternative.”

Bush said she would ensure she has security because she has had attempts on her life and has “too much work to do.”

“So suck it up, and defunding the police has to happen,” she added….

Bush has been a major critic of law enforcement and one of the most ardent advocates of defunding the police. She has said that defunding the police is not a “radical” idea and praised St. Louis in April 2021 for its “historic” vote to strip millions from the police force….

It is sad she doesn’t see the hypocrisy in her stance. What are people to do for protection if they are attacked if there are no police? Perhaps she would like to pay for protection for them. Father, change her heart. Help her to see beyond her own personal security into the crime wave and what is happening. Give her a heart for her constituents. And I pray she would be replaced by someone who feels the danger people are in because of less law enforcement and more crime.

FATHER GOD please remove every obama-ite soros-ite that is in congress today! Let them lose big, or resign or be impeached! Along with the fake president and fake vice president! Please get them out of our government and lives quickly! Please send laborers to them that they may repent for their sins and be convicted and saved in JESUS MIGHTY NAME! Amen!

The “Squad” are hypocrites doing Satan’s work and destroying our country for their own personal, financial gain.

Father God, please bless and protect our police officers everywhere in America, let no weapon formed against them prosper, and increase their numbers in all the Democrat-run cities being overrun with crime since this last Presidential election travesty.

“But the Lord is faithful, and he will strengthen you and protect you from the evil one.” ~ 2 Thessalonians 3:3
