Mehdi Hasan Says He’s Tired of Dems Running Away From Talk of Abolishing, Defunding the Police

EXCERPT:

HASAN: “The issue here, as plenty of people have pointed out, is not black versus white, it's blue versus the rest of us. Which is why this whole reform nonsense from Democrats is so tiring and so dishonest. You can’t reform this stuff with body cameras or diversifying the police, as we just saw in Memphis. That doesn’t solve the problem either. Now Democrats, of course, want to run away from talk of abolishing the police or even defunding the police, that is way too radical, way too out there. But consider this. The Memphis Police Department’s response to all this controversy and camera footage on Saturday was to announce that it was disbanding the specialized police unit whose officers inflicted that brutal assault on Tyre Nichols, the so-called Scorpion Unit. Yeah, they defunded and abolished it."
