The progressive chants all summer and fall was ‘defund the police’. They invented the term. The irony is thick now that it is being used to describe with holding state funds for non-compliance of a state law. This fund diversion is not new, also happens with pensions.
Mandating Bodycams is long overdue. They are necessary to help good cops do their jobs.
That’s the ball game.
By not supporting state bailouts in only the context of Coronavirus, you are also supporting defunding the police and pushing to the crippling of your state, including Illinois.
That’s what McConnell, ironically, was saying about his own state, Kentucky, a state like Illinois with real fiscal challenges exacerbated by the virus.

Funds Europe and I shall leave the company on April 30, 2021.
As the founder of
Funds Europe along with Fiona Rintoul nearly 20 years ago, it has always been my baby and as a result, I always knew I would have to pass it on. I sold the business in December 2017 to Camradata Analytical Services, part of Punter Southall, to bring together an enhanced offering for our clients.
Over the last ten years in particular – certainly since the global financial crisis of 2008 – life has constantly changed at
Funds Europe, away from traditional print media, and towards events, digital, research and – through Camradata – the provision of data. These innovations have ensured we survived the Covid crisis and allowed us to develop closer relationships with clients. Life is less about selling products now, and more about solving problems.

use the “f” word. When did politics become PG? Because I m not sure anyone told Rahm.
