Sen. Ernst has bill & wants to know how much taxpayer money local officials spent, incite, assist illegal anarchist activity.

Time to follow the money again and see what benefits the taxpayers are getting !!!

Can feds block taxpayer funds for states and cities allowing "anarchy" ?

'Law-abiding citizens should not have to pay for their abdication of responsibility'

"In FY2019, the federal government provided the top 20 most populous U.S. cities over $88 billion in taxpayer dollars," Ernst explained. "That money comes from the people and should have been spent to protect them, not put them in harm’s way.

I would add another consideration to that. It is illegal for a public official to entice or otherwise encourage individuals to violate U.S. law. Why then is Biden’s promise of free health care and community college to illegal aliens not considered a violation, since it is encouraging people to enter our country illegally?

Good for Joni. I met her in person, and she’s a lovely woman and a strong addition to the Republican Senate.

With better law enforcement most of the current local democrat city officials would be in jail along with no questions allowed Biden !!!

Its time to push to defund local democrat city officials supporting anarchy, chaos, and lawlessness !!!

If I'm not mistaken a court ruled a few years ago that the federal government can not withhold funds for states and cities that are considered sanctuary.
I assume the same would hold true for this current bill, should it pass.

When all the statues are toppled and the fires burned out I wonder who is going to be paying for the cleanup?



How many Police cars were destroyed during the riots? How much does each one cost the taxpayers? and that is just the tip of the iceberg. How about the insurance premiums that will go up for everyone because some idiots decided to burn down the local convenience store?



We are talking Billions and for what? so the mob can give themselves a pat on the back and claim to be Patriots fighting the good fight for George Floyd.. Floyd who is that most of them would say...
