Democrats are using the riots and chaos after the death of George Floyd to go on the offensive.
The media unquestioningly amplifies their message.
But Democrats are in disarray after Gowdy skewered their newest talking point with one question.
Radical socialist Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez is rallying the Democrat base around the idea of “defunding the police.”
While conservatives first dismissed the idea as a fringe talking point, the call to “defund police” picked up steam in liberal strongholds.
The Minneapolis City Council even announced they had a veto proof majority to dismantle the police department.
But former South Carolina Congressman Trey Gowdy was quick to blast the idea and ridicule Democrats for it on Fox News.
“Who is going to process crime scenes, arrest bad people?” Gowdy exclaimed.
“Who is going to enforce any law, child sex abuse, homicide? Who is going to do it if it’s not the police?”
These Democrats are so out-of-touch, the Minneapolis City Council President actually went on fake news CNN and claimed that calling the police for help if someone broke into your house in the middle of the night came from a “place of privilege.”
Now more establishment Democrats are trying to reframe the debate, claiming “defund the police” was just a call for reform.
Joe Biden quickly came out in opposition to defunding the police after polls showed only 16 percent of Americans support the idea with 65 percent strongly opposed.
Nancy Pelosi waffled, refusing to oppose the idea, but not expressing support for it either.
But Americans shouldn’t rest easy with polls showing the idea has little support. Not long ago, support for the radical homosexual agenda like gay marriage and transgender “rights” were so widely unpopular states were passing constitutional amendments to prohibit it.
In less than twenty years, the tide turned on those issues as the radical Left controls academic institutions, the media, Hollywood, and Big Tech, and successfully uses those to transform society to their socialist vision.

Defund all police departments, OK! Then deputize all Americans to uphold the law! Isn’t that a great idea?
well said
Good come back.
Please be careful for what you wish for!! History repeats itself!!
I guess if there are no police, if we are angry with someone we can just kill them and dig a hole and bury them. No one to report it to. We would all have to get armed as in pioneer days before there were laws or police. Sounds like the wild west but in New York City, LA, Seattle, Atlanta and of course Chicago is about already there. and all the large cities and even the smaller towns. This is not how I want to live.
devilcrats are anarchist/fascist/communist pukes who hate liberty. The useful idiots that support them will find out once they too fall victim to tyranny
Of course this is all Obama, Soros, Bill Ayres and lets not forget Hillary. Let just let everyone know that Bill Ayres is the head guy for Antifa and Obama is his best friend and he has been out and about with his liberal arse opinion and Soros is connected to both. Also, Hillary is in the mix also calling the shots I suppose. They all want anarchy so they can take over the USA. You may think I am crazy and I think the same but this is the conclusion I came to after reading and looking for an answer. Why do you think they are running brain dead Joe Biden? Does anyone think that at the convention Hillary will come out from the curtain as the vice President? Anyone? And what is going to happen about a month after if Biden wins? He will be taken out either by a bullet or become unable to do his job. Take your pick. Then the Vice President become President. That is the only way Hillary will ever be a President. Then, like Obama, will steal anything that isn’t locked down. It sure would be a nightmare. I am sick to death listening about this guy who is dead. And I am now getting videos that are telling me this guy isn’t dead at all. They send pictures of the cop, dead guy and the other cops there at other rally’s creating problems moving the Democrat agenda forward. They call them crisis actors. They say even the family are actors also. Would the Democrats do this? You bet your arse they would. Anything to win the presidency and get their power back. It’s all about the money and power.
i strongly agree with c.a.
The first arrest should be the Dem party for treason
Excellent analogy. Wish you were wrong, but….😱
Demonrats don’t care about anything or anyone, just money and power!!! The ppl who voted for them are really fixing to find that out real fast!!! I’ve heard the cops and floyd are crises actors also!!! It’s also been said that lloyd’s casket was smaller than he was!!! I’ve never believed he was dead!!! Antifa was getting ready last year for something and now we know what!!!! This was planned by soros and the demonrats to try to take down Trump!!!
What other ASININE, HARE-BRAIN IDEAS are the wicked ones gong to conjure up to DESTROY AMERICA?????
That would work extremely well if we could go back to our constitution as far as firearm restrictions are concerned ! Think of how many lives would be saved if people were not trying to hide in there house to wait for the police….After all our forefathers looked to have all of us protested . After all think back as I remember it we were all pretty safe back in the days when no one knew who was armed and who wasn’t . Bad guys were afraid to try a stick up or an armed robbery , knowing that a lot of people around him could shoot him! I know back in the 50 and 60 I shot for an NRA team from Coraopolis and my friend and I used to get dropped off sever blocks from home , we walked home with our rifles slung over our shoulders and in all thoes years we were only stopped once by cops , seems like some light weight was sure we were going to take over the town , the cops and us had a few laughs ands we went on our ways ! No problems . If there was no carry laws now we would be much safer because someone wanting to hold someone up , sure wouldn’t do it if thier was a chance people around him would stop him !
Yes we will all have to get guns who ever votes democrate is crazy they just want to be rich they don’t care about the rest of Americans yes it’s sad what happened to Flynn but doesnt white Americans have rights also racism is old I love all BBC Americans black and White aren’t Democrats Racist they put don’t trump all the time and harass The republicans so man up put your big pants on and suck it up
People run with a slogan that sounds like it will do something to address a wrong. However, they do not think of the unintended consequences. I like that paying taxes to train and hire police is now called a pro lodge expecting police to do what they are hired to do.
The current house draft bill eliminates assumption that lawful police work comes with immunity. When Democrats propose removing that they enable frivolous suitts and drive litigation costs up for local governments.
Get a grip, no one can legislate a fix to all problems. Yet before we strike out, we need to be clear and articulate about results and link action to results, while thinking things through to consequences not acting on fleeting thoughts or how one feels. Far more police are good honorable citizens. Leet’s not abandon that to address a small number of problems even if some attribute bad motives to the reason for bad outcomes.
‘Defund the police’. OK. I guess the local gangs can ‘enforce’ the law on their own turf. It can be paid for by any businesses, that might remain, in the form of ‘protection’ money. A ‘city council’ could be made up of the leaders of the various gangs to decide what ‘they’ think would be best for the city. One thing is for sure…liberals…thy name is insanity.
Wouldn’t be the first “false flag” operation conjured up by the DEMOCOMMUNISTS.Just like they have been opining, they WILL say and do anything to WIN.
I think it would be the answer to the liberal stupidity. All honest , law abiding American who need protection – learn to shoot & carry a fully loaded side arm.
Well Said! GM
I think the Liberal Demons are nuts anyway, not all officers are abusive. The stats. show more black people shoot policemen and the most black people are killed by black people. During their protests it turned to riots and looting a black officer was killed and others injured, but the Libtard news channels would not put that out there. Once the rioting happened it was no longer about BLM they forgot about George Floyd. Liberals are racist, they hate Americans and Oprah’s special about what are our demands, bs. The panel last night was really racist against white people, they called them ignorant and white privileged. That’s also bs all of them are ignorant and black privileged with no right to talk about white privilege. Myself I’m poor but it pissed me off the panel should have been all races. These black privileged people don’t spend any of their millions to help black people that are not privileged. Oprah needs to shut up and go the hell away, what a loser!!!
Won’t need deputation! Survival of the fittest will be the new norm.
Deputizing won’t matter, there will be no one to arrest you. I can’t believe the stupidity of this lunacy. Pelosi wants all historical items removed from the capital. Airbases renamed because they are currently named after confederate officers? Destroying national monuments? Fools, they are part of our history and you can never erase history.
Then we need to have more conservatives in the media, big tech, and especially academic institutions.
Our children are being brainwashed with leftist ideology.
Another moronic idea in a very long list of moronic ideas proposed by the libturds. As this may be the law of the land (or lack of the law of the land), I recommend that if you don’t yet own a concealable firearm that you GET ONE and a carry concealed permit! Especially people not of the libturd mentality. With no police, your life and those of your loved ones will be in jeopardy 24/7.
The Presidency has just been handed over to Pres Trump. His re=election is inevitable. No thinking,conservative Democrat and ,idem,Independent voters who love the country and their financial stability would vote for the ideas of an incompetent AOC,Pelosi an Omar whom have taken over the Democratic Party and destroyed it.. AMEN We are now able to sleep better.
The dope— head Dems want the police gone so they can “ rule and reign” and not answer for anything they do! They have their bought and paid for “ security details” ( paid by OUR TAX DOLlARS) to protect them, as far as they are concerned, we can all go to hell! The Obamas, Clinton’s, and ALL past presidents have security details to protect them. They WANT ANARCHY, so THEY can be in power! So— cut off the security details, leave THEM unprotected, see how much they squalk about that! If we stand by and allow our police to be defunded, the police departments dis- banded, there will be NO law and order! Hitler did the same thing, did-armed the people, and put his goose-stepping S.S. Troops in their place! Soon, if we don’t stop them, WE will have to” seig heil” to all of THEM! Pay attention to what they are saying! Any fool could see they are up to no good! If they get rid of the police, our cities will burn, as the democraps cheer on the killers, rapists, looters are destroying all our forefathers fought and died to protect! WHY are we letting a KENYAN communist dictate how we think, vote, speak and feel? This is AMERICA! If the democraps get in power, we will be a third world country! The whole George Floyd thing was a put up deal, Candace Owens says he isn’t dead! I believe her! Otherwise, WHY are they out to get her? Think about it!!!
JUST SAY this Defunding the POLICE FORCE really Came ABOUT. THINK What Would Positively FOLLOW Such A Farcical THING> !!! The American Citizens WOULD NOT Be ASKING For APPROVAL TO DEFEND THEMSELVES !! THEY Would BE TOTALLY PREPARED and Salivating TO DOING SO>>!! Something They had Never BEEN Allowed, thus FAR, to DO ! AND . in such a condition as THIS>>AND IT WOULD NOT BE JUST THE Criminal elements WHO WERE MORE Than PREPARED !!! SO>>SUCH AN OUTRAGEOUS THING AS THAT>>>SURELY Had BETTER BE THOUGHT THRU !! THE Law=abiding Have HAD ENOUGH of These Criminal ELEMENTS Who Have
BEEN SO Sheltered >>>From Retaliation for TOO LONG !
NOW DEE>NeverMind. SHE Certainly DID NOT DO Herself ( Image ) Any GOOD>>BY Taking SUCH A Liberty…BUT THEN>> …Up to The BEHOLDER !! THIS TOO will PASS. SOME GOOD will COME FROM This HORRIBLE Happening .. …BUT TOO Much BAD Willl UNRAVEL Any GOOD That The “”Blacks’ HOPE TO Derive FROM IT….IF THIS Pillaging and Destruction of Innocent Peoples’ Property (And LIVES ) continue. ALL will BE Turned BACK ONTO THE Propagators…of turmoil. TIME FOR Calm Deliberation BETWEEN both sides of THIS PROBLEM>>>Otherwise.. It will Continue, unchanged for The Better.
Patty, BE Certain YOU KNOW What YOU Are SAYING IS TRUE. I DO NOT Believe That Candace OWEN Said ”Floyd is NOT DEAD !!” If YOU Spout SUCH..AND SHE knows YOU ARE Saying THIS AS ”GOSPEL’ And IT IS A LIE..YOU could BE In a WORLD OF Trouble.
Karfedix says “Me, too!”
THE END IS NEAR, THESE LIBERALS WILL BE COMING FOR YOU SOON SO YOU NEED TO ARM YOURSELVES AND PROTECT YOUR FAMILY THIS WILL THE END OF THE UNITED STATES AND YOU HAVE YOURSELVES TO BLAME KEEP LOOKING OVER YOUR SHOULDER BECAUSE HERE THEY COME
I think it is thr most stupid idea ever and I would not live in a state without them I would have no protection for myself home friends or family .Lets get back to reality people
so agreed
We KNOW the folly of the “defund the police” police crowd but if they must let them go down and say no to federal funds to rebuild when they ask. Quit wasting our tax money on their follies.
Safety and God are essential. The Police protect and defend. Yes, like any organization, a few bad, but mostly good. Do not throw out all: no analysis regarding dangerous crimes, viability of prosecuting district attorneys, existence of criminal courts. Safety for neighborhoods, suburbs, families. We ALL matter: brown, red, yellow, white, black. Stand for the Flag, Kneel for God. Thank God for President Trump.
Hey Mark — good, but 1st arrest by deputized citizens must be PELOSI, then SCHIFF, then COMEY, then, all the misfits comprising the psychotic Democratic Party.
Communist China possesses deep pockets $$$$ to buy, corrupt, manipulate, as evidenced by Wuhan Virus, BLM, Antifa, defund police, Comrades Biden, Pelosi, etc. The underlying enemy is Communist China whose Communist Manifesto: Divide, Deceive, Disrupt, Destabilize, Conquer. (And, Iran’s drone army.)
Go off grid and arm yourselves.
Defund the police. It is ok but we will shoot who require first so that they see if defunding the police, nobody protects them
They are on a roll, and have completely lost their minds, either that or they ALL are on something.
Oh, you bet I have thought about that many times.
Words have meanings. Defund means remove the funds. If they want to reform the police, then they should be talking about reform. The problem is the left routinely changes the meaning of words to fit their agenda. They call it political correctness. When are we going to stop allowing them to hijack the language?
Joe Biden says he ready to go on day one for police reform , if he he was elected president . Well my question is Joe you been in Washington for over 50 yrs , what have you got accomplished so far , you were even in the White House for 8 yrs , So please tell us what is gonna change now , that hasn’t changed in the last 50 yrs . Please watch some of your old video clips , while you hiding out in the basement.
Well since we tearing down our statues and renaming building , Time we get rid of black rap music , that talks about killing cops , drugs promotes violence in there songs . They should all be eliminated, same with violence in video games should be eliminated from our young children
I agree with Gary. Parents should be the ones monitoring what their kids listen to, games they play, etc. blm May have started out to bring attention to what is called “ police brutality,” but what about the criminals who fight the police when they are arrested? What about the police officers ( all nationalities) who are shot, beaten up, killed and injured? Don’t THEIR lives matter also? What about Mr. Dorn who was shot protecting his friend’s store, and left to bleed to death on the street while looters robbed his friend’s store? Wasn’t he a black man, retired from the police force? Where is the outrage about that? Guess it doesn’t play into the narrative they are putting out there. Wasn’t Mr.Floyd high on drugs, attempting to pass a counterfeit twenty dollar bill? So —- who was the criminal here? It doesn’t excuse his death by any means, but if you commit a crime, shouldn’t you answer for it? All races commit crimes, all police are duty bound to arrest them, that is why we have law enforcement, to protect and to serve the community. Without them, no one would be safe anywhere.
AO-C and the other 3 members of the Pom Pom Squad are clearly on some very potent mind altering drugs, Pelosi and Biden just deep in the throes of the later stages of Alzheimer’s/Dementia.
PC is just taking an evil act which is part of Communism in an effort to project and deflect through referring to Cultural Marxism by another name.
Trey is so right about this and the Dems have turned totally stupid.
If Trump and Barr are successful they will have to reopen Alcatraz.
Totally evil
I think its a great idea, let these idiots defund the police and LET CRIME RUN RAMPANT. SEE HOW THAT WORKS. THESE PEOPLE ARE FOOLS, THEY DESERVE WHATEVER THEY GET.
