Voices of Defunding
Austin Berg is doing some awesome reporting on alternative media platforms. He recently posted this forgotten interview from a few years back:
- Three key members of Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson’s administration discuss defunding and abolishing the Chicago Police Department.
- Head of Intergovernmental Affairs Kennedy Bartley ($192,000 salary): “As an abolitionist, when I say defund the police it is through an abolitionist lens.”
- Senior Advisor on Community Safety Alyx Goodwin ($103,488 salary): “The thing I would add here is that the demand to defund is like also an anti-capitalist demand.”
- Deputy Budget Director of Community Safety Adam Slade ($135,084 salary): “I agree 100% with both of those views.”
- Footage source: Panel discussion held April 7, 2021, hosted by Chicago Lawyers' Committee for Civil Rights and Ice Miller LLP
Three of Conehead's top advisors, stealing almost half-a-million in salary, all advocating for the abolition of the CPD.
But none of this came out during the election - "progressives" and their media lapdogs are great at hiding their true intentions.
