Rep. Cori Bush (D-MO), a member of the progressive “Squad” and an advocate for the “Defund the Police” movement, spent $70,000 on private security for herself and her team last quarter, according to a report from Fox News.

Bush has been a staunch advocate for defunding and “transforming” law enforcement, even going so far as to back a federal bill called the “People’s Response Act” that would place strict limits on cops, and establish a division in the Department of Health and Human Services “to perform and fund community-led responses to public safety,” per NBC News.
