Psaki claims GOP wants to "defund the police" after their slogan fails

White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki is paid to lie and gaslight us on behalf of the Democratic Party. She actually attempted to claim Monday that it's Republicans who are calling for the defunding of the police. This comes after the 2020 "Defund the Police" rallying cry by progressive meatballs damaged the Democrats with independent and moderate voters with functional eyes and ears.

Republicans voted against Co-President House Plant's $1.9 trillion American Rescue Plan, which was signed in March, even though it included $350 billion for state and local governments that could be used for local police.

"Something one of the advisers said this weekend, Cedric Richmond, he said Republicans defunded the police by not supporting the American Rescue Plan," Fox News' Peter Doocy asked Jen Psaki on Monday. "But how is it that that is an argument to be made when the president never mentioned needing money for police to stop a crime wave when he was selling the American Rescue Plan?" [H/T Fox News]

"Well, the president did mention that the American Rescue Plan, the state and local funding, something that was supported by the president, a lot of Democrats who supported and voted for the bill, could help ensure local cops were kept on the beat in communities across the country. As you know, [it] didn't receive a single Republican vote. That funding has been used to keep cops on the beat," the ginger responded.

"At the time, it was sold that local police departments might have pandemic-related budget shortfalls, not we need to keep cops on the beat because there's a crime wave," Doocy said.

"I think that any local department would argue that keeping cops on the beat to keep communities safe when they had to, because of budget shortfalls, fire police is something that helped them address crime in their local communities," Psaki said, later adding that "it was a pretty good bill and piece of legislation."

Actually, it was a piece of something else.

Consider that every member of the so-called squad, [aka "The Anti-American Commie Coalition"] called to defund the police. They said the money could be better spent for other things in the community at a time when crime is spiking nationally.

Even President Biden has flip-flopped on his stance regarding defunding the police as the left anxiously tries to claim Republicans are calling for it. 

Co-President Kamala Harris wants us to "reimagine" public safety by putting more money into the community. So if you imagined more police and their resources don't add to public safety, you need to imagine again that it isn't true. Less police and better schools and money in the pockets of people who didn't work for it will decrease the dangers of thugs with illegal guns.

The left is counting on you to have a short memory or to be too stupid to believe what they said about defunding the police. Certainly Jen Psaki is counting on it.

Hopefully, independent and moderate voters will see through the gaslighting and put the adults back in charge of Congress next year. But don't count on it--you have to make the change, not the lady with 45 cats who lives down the street.
