Rep. Cori Bush (D-MO) declared during an interview on Thursday that “defunding the police has to happen,” a statement that she made immediately after she told critics to “suck it up” when she was faced with questions about her paying tens of thousands of dollars for private security.
“You faced some criticism in recent weeks over your push to defund the police,” a CBS News host said to Bush. “Campaign records show that you spent roughly $70,000 on private security, and some critics say that move is hypocritical. What’s your response to those critics?”
