<p>As the national urban crime wave <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/cnn-crime-wave-will-put-republicans-back-in-power-in-midterms">threatens Democrats’ control</a> of Congress next election, the party and its apologists have begun backing away from their prior advocacy of defunding the police. The Washington Post’s fact-checker, Glenn Kessler, added to this chorus by <a href="https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2021/06/29/continuing-gop-fiction-that-president-biden-supports-defunding-police/">denouncing</a> “[t]he continuing GOP fiction that President Biden supports defunding police.” Kessler gave the notion that Biden supports defunding the police &#8220;four Pinocchios&#8221; in his fact-check for the publication.</p>
<p>One of the supposed myths Kessler quoted came from Rep. Jim Banks (R-IN), who <a href="https://twitter.com/RepJimBanks/status/1407858355440324610">wrote</a>, “The problem [causing the 2021 crime spike] isn’t guns and it isn’t COVID either. It’s violent rioting and the Defund the Police movement, both of which were supported, financially and rhetorically, by the Biden admin.&#8221;</p>
